Are You Thinking About Adopting A Greyhound?

Please remember that adopting a retired racing greyhound is a life long commitment and your decision should not be taken lightly.  We recommend that you read "Retired Racing Greyhounds For Dummies" by Lee Livingood.  Come out to the kennel and talk to some of our volunteers.  Call us with your questions, (856) 220-5158.  Even if you adopt from another agency, try to get as many opinions and facts before you make the commitment.  Greyhounds are pack animals and they bond very quickly with their new pack, your family.  To adopt a greyhound and return them would break their heart and spirit, after all you have rejected them.

You can now fill out your application and submit it on-line.  Go to the bottom of the "Adoption" page or the top of the "Adopt Me" page to submit your application on-line.  Or print out our application at the bottom of the "Adopt Me" page.

Why are you lurking on the computer?  Don't be afraid, come on out to the kennel and see the greyhounds for  yourself.  Are you afraid to fall in love?

We will be serving Carrabba's Italian Food just like last year.  For a $5.00 donation you receive chicken marsala, pasta, salad, and a roll.  Thank you Carrabba's for your continued support!!

We will also be serving hoagies thanks to our friends at Shop Rite.  For a $3.00 donation you can choose from an Italian, American, turkey, or roast beef hoagie, with macaroni and potato salad.  Thank you Shop Rite for supporting greyhound adoption.

We will make sure that there are plenty of drinks for everybody!!

We will also be collecting donated items for the kennel.  We can always use: laundry detergent, Pine Sol, bleach, hand soap, stamps, garbage bags, towels, blankets, paper towels, pee pads, large Milkbones, large rawhides, sponges, dish soap, vet wrap, triple antibiotic ointment, first aid tape, non-stick gauze pads, etc.

All greyhound adopters are invited to attend, no matter who you adopted through.  This a celebration of greyhound adoption for anyone who has adopted.  Please RSVP to be entered for our door prize.  Send the number of people and dogs in your party to Shelby at hotnailzz@yahoo.com.

Planning Your Summer Vacation?

Don't Forget The Furkids!!

Let Greyhound Angels Adoption watch your furkids for you.  We provide boarding and grooming for all greyhounds and their other breed friends.  We offer your furkids a climate controlled (air conditioned and heated), fully licensed facility.  We also provide around the clock staffing for their safety and your piece of mind!!

All furkids that board with us will be able to play the day away in our indoor 20 ft. X 60 ft. playroom complete with toys, beds, and blankets.  They will have a playgroup in the morning and in the afternoon.  All playtime is supervised so that your greyhounds and their other breed friends are safe.  Plus a relaxing leash walk before dinner.  It will be their vacation while you are on vacation. 

We do not charge extra for medication administration, to feed your dog a special diet, playtime, or to show them plenty of love and attention.  Any greyhound staying seven nights will get a free spa day before they go home.  They will receive a free oatmeal medicated bath, nail clipping, and ear cleaning.

Maybe your greyhound will find a friend to take home with them.  We provide a pick your friend service.  If you are looking for another greyhound, we will help your greyhound find a friend while they stay here.  By the time they go home together, they are already buddies. 

Space is limited for boarding so that we may provide our vacationing greyhounds with plenty of attention and love.  Please call the kennel at (856) 220-5158 to make your reservations.

We also provide Spa Day Services for greyhounds.  You can call to make your appointment or just stop in with your greyhound.

Help GAA Find Our Forever Home

GAA is currently looking for a local property to open our forever home.  Our ultimate goal is to have our own kennel with plenty of land to let our greyhounds do what they do best...run.  We will also be establishing a fenced in Fun Run for all, no matter what agency they adopted through,  greyhound adopters to bring their greyhounds for play dates.

Please help us establish this "Greyhound Utopia". 

Click Here to print out the Land Fund Pages and Donate.  Then watch your donation help us meet our total goal to the left of your screen.

~More Greyhounds Coming~

We have eight newly retired greyhounds coming our way on Tuesday, May 6, 2008, from Tri-State.  Please watch the "Adopt Me" page for their pictures and profiles.

More Puppies Coming Soon

We have nine greyhound puppies coming in from Alabama, five brindle and four black, eight females and one male.  Get your applications in, puppies go fast. 

You must have prior greyhound experience to qualify for puppy adoption.  There is an additional adoption donation required for puppies.

Please call the kennel, (856) 220-5158, if you have any questions.
