Thank you for your expression of interest in sharing your home and companionship with a retired Greyhound.

These ex-racers are usually between two and five years old - young enough to offer a long and fruitful friendship, but past the difficult puppy stage.

In order to ensure compatibility with your intended companion, we request your cooperation with the following questionnaire. Please complete all sections.

As much as we'd prefer everything to run smoothly - when it comes to IT, sometimes it doesn't! If you haven't had a response to an emailed form within two to three days, can you please phone us?
