What are the prerequisites for adoption?
Greyhounds are not for everyone. GPA-CT will generally not place greyhounds with families who have children under five years of age. You must also have a fenced yard. Greyhounds should not be kept as outside dogs or left in a garage. They have insufficient body fat and too sparse a coat. They do not adapt well to extreme heat or cold. GPA-CT also reserves the right to withhold placement of a greyhound if the placement is not in the best interests of the dog.
