Greyhounds Only, Inc. Greyhounds Only, Inc.'s Mission:
Match retired racing greyhounds with adoptive families in Illinois. However, there are always exceptions!

Some facts about retired greyhounds:

1) Retired racing greyhounds are gentle, sweet, good-natured dogs who can live in nearly every environment - from a city apartment to a sprawling country estate. Our adoption representatives help adopters find the hound that is right for them.

2) Greyhounds retire from their racing careers generally when they are anywhere between 2-5 years of age. Considering

the average lifespan of a greyhound is 10-14 years, these pups still a lot of living left to do!

3) Considered to be 40-mph couch potatoes, most greyhounds are your stereotypical lazy dogs. Even an active greyhound typically has a lower energy level than many other breeds.

🐾 The 2025 Greyhounds Only Reunion is just around the corner—and we still need a few helping hands!

Whether you can spare an hour or the whole day, volunteers make this event happen.

✅ Bring your hound along—they can chill at the hound sitting area or keep you company at your post.

✅ Help at the Gently Used table, sell 50/50 raffle tickets, work the GO booth, or give a hand at the ticket table - just to name a few of the things you could do to help!

✨ Glenview, mark your calendars! ✨

Greyhounds Only is joining forces with Kriser's Natural Pet (2727 Pfingsten Rd) and their neighbors for a special Fundraiser + Meet & Greet on Sunday, Oct 12 from 12–3 PM.

Come meet our long, weird, wonderful retired racers — now professional loafers, leaners, and velvet-coated snuggle pros. While you’re there, you can also support the cause:

🐾 Donate supplies for pets in need
🐾 Learn about adoption
🐾 Enjoy a community event that’s all about pets, love, and giving back

No pressure, no on-site adoptions — just a chance to meet some truly unique pups and help support their journey to forever homes.

✔️ Bring your hound along—they can relax while you help at the Gently Used sale, GO booth, or ticket table.
✔️ Hound sitting is available all day on the stage if they’d rather lounge.

Sign up for a volunteer slot here: 👉 https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0D4CAEA928A4F58-57426968-2025 #/
