Allies for Greyhounds of West Michigan

Allies for Greyhounds of West Michigan retrieves Greyhounds bred for racing. We look out for the welfare of the Greyhound, finding homes for them where they may live out their natural lives as pets. We also work to educate the public about their qualities as pets and their care.

First we have you go to our website (www.afgwm.org) and fill out an on-line application. Don't worry if you don't have internet access you can contact Allies for Greyhounds at (866)929-3647 and have a paper application sent to you. When we receive your application a local volunteer will contact you and set up a "Home-Visit" so that we can sit down face to face and get to know each other and answer questions you may have. The home-visit is probably the most important part of the adoption process. Once an applicant is approved for adoption we will help you pick out a dog that is suitable for you and your family. We don't "force" a dog on you but we help you pick a dog that is going to fit your needs. The adoption fee of $ 225.00 covers: Spay/Neuter, Teeth Cleaning, Shots Updated, 3 months supply of Heart-worm Preventative, Martingale Style Collar (specially designed for Greyhounds), Leash, and of course a Greyhound. Along with this, you will also have access to a large Greyhound community where Greyhound owners pride themselves with their knowledge and love of this wonderful breed.
