If, after reading this, you are still keen to adopt, Jenny will arrange for you to have a Home-Visit, where a Trust Homefinder can assess your situation and match you up with dogs which she feels will adapt best to your circumstances.

If approved and you have found the dog that is right for you, you need to sign a Retired Greyhound Trust Adoption Form. This states that you agree not to race or breed the dog - and the dog remains the property of The Trust so that it must be returned to us if, for some reason, you can no longer care for it. This is to safeguard the health and happiness of the dog.

You then take the dog home to live happily ever after! We do offer advice and help with the dog for its entire life - but particularly during the first few weeks when problems are most likely to occur. Most dogs settle in as though they had lived there forever!
