Program areas at Maine Greyhound Placement Service
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.
Mgps operates a veterinary clinic for the care of greyhounds and animals from other shelters. There was a temporary pause in this activity during the tax year.
Volunteers help mgps publish a newsletter, hold an annual open house and perform meet & greet events at pet stores and at 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.
