Every greyhound is profiled. We do our best to determine their suitability with cats, other pets and children. They are given a flea/tick bath and a complete medical exam.
Prior to placement, they are spayed/neutered, teeth cleaned and innoculations are updated.
All are tested for heartworm, de-wormed, tested for tick borne diseases, and receive a non-slip (martingale) collar and matching lead.
Adoption fee is $275
