My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Duke is a beautiful brindle boy that will melt your heart. He completed the prison program with ease and will sit, stay and lay down on command without any treats or rewards. Shaking (giving paw) is not one of his favorite commands but not really a downfall in the scheme of things. Duke LOVES to be with his family and lays in the bathroom every morning to watch his foster mom get ready for work. Duke can be trusted out of his crate but he still goes into his crate when told to do so. He has been around an almost 2 year old boy without any issues. He loves to be petted, brushed, ears scratched and of course, the coveted cow hooves. Duke is an awesome boy that if there was room in his foster families' house, his foster dad would love to keep Duke around- but unfortunately, there is not. Is there room in your house and heart for Duke?

American Greyhound has partnered with "2nd Chance at Life", a prison foster program for retired racing greyhounds. 2nd Chance at Life (SCAL) places retired racers, directly off the track, into their prison foster program for obedience training and socialization. They receive ten weeks of training from two inmate caretakers and leave as good canine citizens.
SCAL greys require a $300 adoption fee to support the program
