Nov 8th: Volunteer Appreciation and Fundraising Dinner
Donate to Colorado Greyhound Adoption for Coloado Gives Day, Dec 9th — and give where you live!
Help Us Say “Yes” to Every Greyhound needing a home! This Colorado Gives Day, we’re asking for your help to continue a mission that’s been 28 years in the making.
Colorado Greyhound Adoption has placed over 6,000 retired racing greyhounds into loving homes—but we can’t do it alone. Every dog we bring in needs medical care, transportation, food, and foster support!
This is our biggest fundraiser of the year. Our goal is $25,000, and every dollar goes directly toward helping retired racers find their forever homes. Starting November 1st, you can visit coloradogives.org, search for Colorado Greyhound Adoption, and make your donation to count towards Dec 9th, Colorado Gives Day!.
Share. Give. Inspire. Please share our campaign, encourage your friends and family to donate, and help us keep saying “yes” to the next greyhound who needs us.
Because these dogs aren’t just retired racers—they’re goofy, graceful, loyal companions waiting for a forever home. And with your help, we’ll make sure they get it.
SPOTLIGHT HOUND: Tommy
See me. Feel me. Can I help to cheer you?
‘Who’ is Tommy? I’m a gorgeous 2-and-a-half-year-old boy with a sleek, smooth, soft coat. I’m a whirlwind of joy, energy, and goofy charm. I’m a dog’s dog and love playing with pups of all sizes and I get along with cats. If you scratch my neck, I’m yours forever --- I also have a few tickle spots that will make you laugh every time.
I am very food motivated, which can sometimes cause me to be a bit of a resource guarder. But because I’m food motivated, I can be redirected and will trade you the thing I’m chewing with the treats I want!
Tommy would be okay with children 12 and over, as he gets very excited when new people approach and he can sometimes nip a little out of excitement.
Tommy thrives in a home with a yard and doggy companions who love to play and can help guide his behavior. He’s learning fast and responds well to training, but he needs structure and stimulation. He wants to please, he just sometimes forgets his manners, but he’s easily corrected if he knows what’s expected.
The cutest thing about Tommy, is that he has a derpy tongue that is always sticking out all over the place. One thing is for sure, he will keep you entertained!
If you are interested in meeting Tommy, please let your Adoption Counselor know, or fill out an online adoption application and come meet him! He will defiitely clown his way into your heart!
URGENT - WE NEED FOSTERS!!!
We have greyhounds coming in!
We have retired racers coming in November and December and we need foster families.
Without foster families, we cannot bring in greyhounds for adoption!
Just imagine not being able to adopt one of these wonderful greyhounds because there are no foster families?
Fostering greyhounds plays a crucial role in helping these retired racing dogs transition into family pets, acclimating the hounds to home life.
So what does it take become a foster family?
You must complete a Foster Application, followed by a home visit from a CGA representative. Once approved, CGA provides necessary supplies and vet care--you provide the love, care, and home.
You will work with a dedicated foster coordinator, who will help answer questions, along with access to a google group made up with other foster families.
Questions? Contact info@greyhoundadoption.com

New CGA Amazon Wish List!
Donate Food for Fosters!
Now you can help CGA in a different way! With all of the greyhounds coming in to CGA, our foster hounds need food! Donating foster food is fast (like a greyhound) and easy. Click on the button below to see CGA’s Amazon Wish List. Select the food you’d like to donate from our list. It will be shipped to one of our coordinators. We all know how sensitive greyhound tummies can be, so we’ve made it easy by limiting the number of options. Please donate now!
At checkout you will see a shipping address option listed as "Morgan Fields' Gift Registry Address". Please select that one.
