Greyhounds at home

The Greyhound is as ancient as the desert from which he sprung, and for thousands of years they were the dogs of choice by kings, queens, pharaohs, sheiks, and people of distinction.  Today, greyhounds are gentle, loving dogs that thrive on human companionship. After their racing career, retired greyhounds, also known as 40 mph couch potatoes, make wonderful pets. 

The Greyhound Alliance is dedicated to greyhound welfare in the northern Illinois area, facilitating greyhound rescue and adoption, and furthering education and support for greyhound owners, potential adopters, and the community at large.
