Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals
Mission: To find loving, responsible homes for retired racing greyhounds that can no longer compete on the racetrack.
Programs: Mgps operates a veterinary clinic for the care of greyhounds and animals from other area shelters.
retired racing greyhounds are spayed and neutered,receive all medical updates, then are housed, fed and cared for until someone is found to adopt them. These retired racers are very intelligent, adaptable dogs who fit easily into their new homes following a brief adjustment period.
volunteers help mgps publish a newsletter, hold an annual open house, and perform meet & greet events at pet stores and other locations throughout the state. Through our activities we seek to inform, educate and encourage the public to adopt these healthy dogs that the racing industry would otherwise euthanize.
