Greyhound Rescue, Inc. was founded in 1989 by John and Denise Davis. It is an all-volunteer, registered, non-profit, charitable organization. Your adoption fees and donations are tax-deductible.

John and Denise founded the rescue program after they adopted Stacey, a white, brindle-patched, ticked female who raced into their hearts. Their interest in the rescue effort developed into the formation of their own rescue organization. Since its inception, Greyhound Rescue, Inc. has placed over 2,000 Greyhounds in homes throughout Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Washington D.C.

The goal of Greyhound Rescue is to find high-quality, loving homes for ex-racing Greyhounds and to educate people about the excellent, loving pets these noble creatures make. We are a relatively small organization, but are very active and dedicated.

We do not believe in overly restrictive placement policies. If you are a responsible, caring person and are willing to dedicate the attention that a Greyhound needs, please consider adopting one of these noble dogs through us.
