FOR THE LOVE OF GREYHOUNDS

Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada is all about finding homes for one of the world's most charming, affectionate, and loving dogs - the retired racing Greyhound.

We are proud to be The Newfoundland & Labrador Branch of Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada (GPAC). GPAC selects our adorable adoptee's, provides care when they arrive in Musquodobit Harbour, Nova Scotia, and transports them to the airport for the journey that brings them to Newfoundland and Labrador. GPAC provides us with advice to help with our program and the settling in process of our new pets. GPAC also does a major amount of the fund raising that helps support the effort.

Since GPAC, Nova Scotia and its' members are 1000 miles away, we needed to establish a community of Greyhound lovers here in Newfoundland. We think this link from the main Web site will assist us in this venture as well as being a useful addition to the primary GPAC Web site. Not only will it promote adoption and awareness but provide us with the opportunity to socialize, and share "Greyhound moments" through conversation and pictures.

*** PLEASE MAKE A DONATION ***

GPAC NL is a non-profit charity relying on the donations and generosity of people like you to make this program a success. As an adoption group we experience high costs associated with caring for those dogs requiring adoption. Every dollar of your donation goes directly to helping these dogs including high veterinarian costs and travel from the tracks to NL. Please consider supporting the program so that we can continue to place these dogs and care for the many thousand still waiting for their permanent homes. Thank you so much for you donation.

Would you like to sponsor a greyhound coming to the island?

You can receive a tax receipt for your generosity. Plus! You will also be featured on our website!

** Your Support ... with transportation **
all new greyhounds arrive in NL by flying cargo. Given the expensive cost associated with this, the NL branch subsidies all costs with each adopter paying a portion of the cost. If you would like to help with the transportation of a greyhound to NL and Labrador, please feel free to make a donation.

In addition, many greyhounds retire due to medical reasons such as a broken leg, etc. GPAC will often pay additional veterinary costs to ensure a greyhound gets a new leash on life. Any donations can be used toward our Sparkle Fund which directly pays for the medical needs of retiring greyhounds.
