]]> Ohio Greyhound Gathering & Adoption is an ALL VOLUNTEER organization, we would not exist without the many hours our volunteers contribute.
People are encouraged  to give their time to a  cause that is  about rescuing these beautiful greyhounds from the track,  getting them adjusted to living in a home, caring for them when they get medical treatment and showing them the love they have long deserved.

If you have never had a pet but have wanted to learn about these sleek graceful animals  consider giving some of your time to help us with our educational and fund raising events:

  • Meet and Greets
  • Mutt Struts
  • Greyhound Gathering
  • Mutt Stretch

PLEASE HELP–GET INVOLVED!
