The Greyhounds Retired Database site ( EXTERNAL LINK )in association with Greyhound-Data now has the facility to include private rehomings on its database.

A very large number of Greyhounds are homed without ever entering an Adoption Organisation, many of them are simply taken home by their owners once they finish racing. It was decided therefore to set up a section in order to list those Greyhounds that have been privately homed either by the Owners, Trainers or other individuals who may not otherwise show up within the current systems.
Anyone wishing to add their greyhounds to this section may do so by sending details of their dogs with the following information to the contact details (email) below.
Race name or Sire and Dam details.
Pet Name.
Birthdate.
Date of Homing (i.e Month & Year)
Location
You may be contacted for further verification.

Thisenables all the thousands of greyhounds rehomed by owners and trainers each year to be acknowledged on the site. If you are a petowner who has taken on a retired racing greyhound direct from an owner or trainer then please get in touch with [email protected] or [email protected] with details as outlined above and where possible a recent picture to add to the site.

Alternatively if you are a racing owner or trainer and would like us to include details of dogs you have either rehomed privately or kept yourselfas apet then please e-mail details to one of the above e-mails along with one or two lines describing where dog is etc. Again if there is no photo on Greyhound-Data then any you have would be much appreciated so we can update the record.

Cheers

Just to update we now already have over 100 dogs on this list inside a week.

These are dogs that will likely be described as missing or dead by certain groups and used against greyhound racing as a sport so it is really important that as many dogs privately rehomed are added to the list.

All we need are race names, pet names, date of rehoming and brief description of where they have gone.

Cheers
Kev
