Give it a trial run.
Have you considered
getting a dog...
but don’t want the
long-term commitment yet?
Have you thought about adding another greyhound to your pack...
but you’re not sure if you can handle it?
Do you have extra
time and love...
that could be applied to a greyhound?
Do you want to
get involved...
with NCGC?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, consider fostering!
NCGC does not have a kennel so all of our greyhounds are placed in foster homes until they are adopted. While greyhounds are in foster care, NCGC pays for all expenses – including dog food, treats, supplies, medical expenses, and veterinary services.
As an organization, this is our NUMBER ONE NEED!
We are limited by the number of foster homes we have in our network. We are always on the lookout for wonderful foster families who are willing to help our greyhounds get used to a life of retirement.
Why foster?
- You help the dog get accustomed to life in a home.
- You help a dog overcome the stress of being in a kennel.
- You help socialize the dog.
- You help us learn about the dog’s personality.
- You help increase the dog’s chances of finding the right fur-ever home.
- You save a life!
To get started, submit a NCGC Application.
After you submit your application, our Foster Coordinator will contact you to answer all of your questions and schedule a home visit.
