In loving memory of Bill Marshall who lost his battle with cancer on December 22, 2008. This organization wouldn't have gotten off the ground if it wasn't for his sincere compassion for the greyhound. He'll be in our hearts forever.

Chip and Ayana think life is GREYT!

American Greyhound Great Lakes is a Not for Profit 501c3 organization dedicated to finding good homes for Retired Racing grey hounds.

Our goal is to promote public awareness about what excellent, loving pets these noble dogs make.

Our hounds come from various trainers at various tracks. Please check out our Adoptable Greys page to view our current list of greyhounds who are just ready to go to a lovable home.

Attention -- Greyhound Guardians Adopters:

Since Greyhound Guardians has been dissolved, we would like
to let you know that we would be glad to re-tag your adopted greyhounds with an American Greyhound tag to be sure there is a local support contact number should your dog ever get out.  We will maintain records on your dog and assist in the search if your dog is lost.  Also, we heartily welcome you to join us at our events and to contact any of our members if we can answer any questions for you.  Feel free to join our large greyhound "family" and be involved as much or as little as you would like to be.

Can you help?

We've been hit with some major medical bills. Please help us continue to provide quality care for all our greyhounds. Please donate to our medical/surgery fund.

American Greyhound
P. O. Box 268
Dyer, IN 46311

This handsome boy has been hit with some major health issues since his neuter. He bled internally after the surgery and he lost lots of blood. He's been helped by two heroes, Walter and Doc Holiday who have been blood donors for him. He is slowly recovering and is getting lots of love and support from his wonderful foster family. His medical costs are over $3400 as of right now. Any assistance towards these costs will help!
