This handsome, affectionate Irish boy is still looking for his people and needs a new foster home. Please give him a second look and consider fostering Duke, foster to adopt, or adopt. Duke has a quiet demeanor, enjoys the company of people and loves to lean into them. Duke is looking for a quiet home setting, with no other pets and someone who is home most of the time. A fenced in yard is a plus!
If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion, and are willing to give him time and patience to help him thrive, Duke is your guy.
If you or someone you know might be the right home, message us, or go to ctgreyhounds.org/foster or ctgreyhounds.org/a-happy-hound/. Please share!

Got plans? Sunday is "Dog Day" at Coventry Farmers' market. Find us and get some greyhound love, learn about fostering and adopting one or two! Pictured is Mary, recently arrived from Ireland and ready to find her forever family. Find our more at ctgreyhounds.org/adopt.

Mary is a sweet greyhound with an easygoing temperament. She’s a joy to walk, enjoys car rides, and gets along well with medium and large dogs and children. While she’s not suited for homes with small dogs or cats, Mary’s affectionate and low-maintenance nature makes her a wonderful, loyal companion.

Learn more about new adoptable hounds on our website, ctgreyhounds.org/foster, like Spar. He is a charming small greyhound from Ireland who’s adjusting beautifully to foster care. Friendly and good with dogs of all sizes, Spar is gentle, good on a leash (though he sometimes needs encouragement), and likely great with kids. With some training, he might also adapt to cats. Spar’s sweet nature and adaptability make him a wonderful fit for almost any family!
