Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center

Bay Area Greyhound Adoptions, Inc is a non-profit, charitable organization, incorporated in the state of Florida. We provide greyhound adoption services to Tampa, Hillsborough County, and surrounding communities. Our organization is staffed entirely by volunteers who are dedicated to finding loving homes for retired racing greyhounds.We have found that most greyhound kennel owners treat their dogs well and try to find good homes for the ones that aren't fast enough for the track or who have reached retirement age. We recognize this effort and are working with kennel owners to find homes for as many retired racers as possible.Once we receive a telephone call from one of these kennel owners that they have greyhounds they would like to place in pet homes, we pick up the greyhounds and foster them in our own homes until they are adopted. This allows us to become familiar with each dog's personality and temperament, and to help the greyhound adjust to life in a home environment. Not only does fostering help the greyhound, but for our volunteers it is a most rewarding experience.Our volunteers show the greyhounds to the public at our numerous "meet-and-greets" throughout the Tampa Bay area. We process adoption applications, conduct home advisories and act as counselors to families after they bring their adopted greyhound home. We transport the greyhounds from the racing kennel to the foster homes and to our vets, and we bathe and groom the greyhounds prior to adoption.
