While 2024 was a year of significant change for GALT, we continued to do what we do best: find forever homes for happy hounds! In addition to welcoming 32 hounds from the United States, we have taken in 48 retired racing greyhounds from Australia in 2024, five of which are pictured here. Our donors and volunteers have stepped up repeatedly to assist as we transitioned from our kennel facility to an all-foster organization. With your help, we are now positioned to continue the mission that Susie and John McQuade started when they formed GALT over 23 years ago.

Without the expense of a kennel, our biggest financial need going forward will be medical expenses. Several of our most active donors are once again helping us raise funds by pledging $20,000 for GALT’s 2024 Holiday Angels Matching Fund. Thanks to their generosity, donations up to $20,000 made to the Dr. E. Kelly Nitsche Veterinary Care Fund (https://greytstore.org/collections/donations/products/the-dr-e-kelly-nitsche-veterinary-care-fund) between now and December 31, 2024, will be matched, doubling the power of your gift!

Visit our website to read more about our Holiday Angels Matching Fund donors and remember that you can help the hounds with your gift of any size. Many thanks to all who supported GALT in 2024 and who are now helping us lay a firm financial foundation for 2025!

Welcome, Aussie 8!.mp4

We are thrilled to introduce our latest eight arrivals from Australia! On October 26, Naz and Buddy arrived in New Mexico where they will stay in foster homes until they find their forever homes. Neither of them raced and both will turn three years old later this month. Buddy is an adorable brindle boy and Naz is a sweet black gal. On Halloween, we welcomed the remaining six hounds in Dallas: Art, Charm, Connor, Sandy, Skylar, and Tyler. Art, Connor, and Tyler are boys and Charm, Sandy, and Skylar are girls. Tyler, who is black, is the oldest, turning six in January. White and brindle Skylar is the youngest. She will turn three in February. All are retired racers, except for three year old Art. We are still working on getting photos together for their bios. Watch a slide show of them all here. These eight new arrivals will all be adoptable as soon as we get them check-ups, vaccinations, and any other medical care they need and also get to know them a little better in foster homes. You can help with their expenses by making a gift to our Nitsche Medical Fund. Remember we adopt nationwide to experienced adopters who can come pick up their hound. If you've been hoping you could adopt again, please put in your adoption application now so that we can get started working on it. More Aussies are expected in December! #Greyhounds #NewArrivals
