Have you ever wanted to make a real, life-changing impact on a dog hoping to find their forever home? Fostering a Greyhound is one of the most rewarding ways to help - both for the dog and for you.
By opening your home to a foster Greyhound, you provide them with the love, security, and guidance they need to transition to life as a pet.
Our foster care program is highly flexible and starts from just 6 weeks, by fostering you will be giving a Greyhound the best start to the rest of its life.
Why Fostering matters
Retired Greyhounds have spent most of their lives in kennels. Many have never lived in a home before, walked up stairs, or seen a couch. Fostering helps them adjust to home life, giving them the confidence and skills to thrive in their future forever home.
Through fostering, we learn more about each dog’s personality - what they love, what they need, and what kind of family would be the perfect match. This means they get adopted faster and stay in their forever homes forever.
Fostering isn’t just about helping a dog - it’s an incredibly fulfilling experience for you, too!
✅ Experience the love of a Greyhound without a long-term commitment
✅ Bring joy into your home with their gentle, affectionate nature
✅ Teach them new skills and watch them grow in confidence
✅ Feel the pride of making a difference in a dog’s journey to adoption
Short-Term commitment, Lifelong impact, Our support
