Hollydogs Greyhound Adoption Application
Pet ownership is a serious responsability. Hollydogs Greyhound Adoption feels that each greyhound adopted is to become a vital member of his new family. Each person that adopts a greyhound will not only be aware of that responsability, but also be capable of and willing to accept that responsability morally, physically and financially and understand that greyhound pets are to live indoors. Not every person who desires to own a pet should own a greyhound. All greyhounds deserve a home, PLEASE do not discriminate them. They will love unconditionally. The following questionaire has been designed to aid both you and Hollydogs in deciding if you and/or your family is indeed adequately prepared to assume the type of responsible ownership which we are endeavouring to assure for our adoptive Greyhounds. You must agree to have a volunteer visit your home. The adoption fee is $200.00 and is non refundable.
