support the hounds. every dollar matters.
Where the Money Goes
Vet Services
This is by far our largest expense each year. On average, we spend $750-$1,000 to prepare each dog for adoption. Our adoption fee is only $225 so donations “keep our doors open.”
Foster Supplies
We provide our foster homes with everything they need to care for our dogs, including dog food, treats, toys, crates, dog beds, and more.
Transportation
While our hounds run 440 yards at a time, our Hound Haulers run hundreds of miles to get our foster dogs from the track to vet visits to meet and greets and eventually to their forever homes.
Administrative Costs
Running a successful organization isn’t easy (or cheap). We must pay for things like liability insurance, our 1-800 number, this website, etc.
More Ways To Give
Every dollar that comes into our organization directly supports our greyhounds.
