Northern Greyhound Adoptions

The kennel needs your help. At the moment, we have a few dogs that need medical attention and our bank account is at an all time low.

First there is Glory, this is a kind and sociable blue greyhound girl that arrived from UK in November. We noticed upon her arrival that she had a crooked toe on one of her front legs. After some X-rays we learned that this toe was broken and would need to be amputated. The only way she could have done this is probably during transport, seems like the toe was somehow crushed. Well she needs more X-rays and the surgery to amputate her toe, medication and pain killers.

And then our sweet Buster. Buster is a young boy who also came in from UK in November. Sue, our kennel manager, noticed he was peeing way more than usual. We brought him to the Vet and they are pretty positive he has kidney disease. He did a round of antibiotics, and now we have to switch to kidney diet to see if it will improve his condition. He needs another round of tests to determine the extent of his condition and what to do next to ensure he can find a forever home and have a great quality of life.

About Northern Greyhound Adoptions : As a non-profit Greyhound adoption organization, N.G.A.'s aim is to accommodate ex-racers, spay or neuter each individual, and integrate them into the surrounding communities. Each year, we strive to place 60 dogs. Dogs are welcomed into our kennel, and socialized with our volunteers and other Greyhounds as they relax and adjust into their retirement years. Pursuant to our mission, we work to educate the public and increase awareness of Greyhounds.

All-the Northern Greyhound Adoptions kennel desperately needs your help! The kennel is in need of fresh sand for the dog yard and new fencing. Due to all of the rain and flooding, the sand is getting washed out and the fencing is starting to pull apart. We want to keep the hounds healthy and safe and need your help!

We will do the hard part of spreading the sand and repairing the fencing, we just need help with raising the necessary funds!

We are hoping to raise $3,000 in this campaign. Every little bit helps!

N.G.A has worked tirelessly since October of 2001 and has placed over 50 dogs in loving homes each year. With greyhound racing winding down in the United States, there is a chance to get a few more U.S. racers adopted through N.G.A. Additionally, N.G.A has partnered with the Irish to America greyhound program, which brings Irish racers to our North American couches.  We received our first Irish Greyhounds last November and they are just as nice as our American retired racers.   We have placed 27 Irish greyhounds so far.  We are looking to raise funds to get as many U.S. dogs as possible to place for adoption and continue bringing Irish racers over the U.S. for the sweet life.

 

The kennel is operated entirely by volunteers and supported solely by donations.
