Happy National Adopt-a-Greyhound Month!

April 19, 2019 by Greyhound Adoption Center

April is National Adopt-a-Greyhound Month and it's the perfect time to not only consider adopting a greyhound but also spread the word about how amazing greyhounds are as companions.

Greyhounds make wonderful pets because they are docile, friendly, social, and respond well to positive reinforcement. Most greyhounds prefer to lounge for most of the day, earning them the description "45 mph couch potatoes," which combats the stereotype that they are high-energy dogs that need tons of exercise.

April also happens to be Greyhound Adoption Center month, as proclaimed by San Diego County two years ago in honor of GAC's 30th anniversary. To celebrate greyhounds and these two awesome months, you click below to donate to help us rescue and rehabilitate more greyhounds or to sponsor a greyhound!
