Three successfully placed dogs
The Greyhound Adoption Center is one of the oldest and largest greyhound rescue groups in the United States.  We have placed more than 3,000 greyhounds since our founding in 1987, initially as a branch of Greyhound Pets of America.    

We are a not-for-profit group, staffed almost entirely by volunteers. More than 225 greyhound lovers throughout California and Nevada help with transport or work with the dogs at our kennel in San Diego, California.  Other volunteers contribute time as placement representatives or are involved in fund-raising or catalog sales.  Many more help spread the word about greyhounds by increasing public awareness at "Show 'n' Tells" or other forums.
