| WELCOME TO GREYHOUND PET ADOPTION SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI! |
Alane Shultz is the founder of GPAMO and has had retired racing greyhounds as pets for 34 years. She has facilitated greyhound adoptions since 1992. Greyhounds are clean, quiet and have no hereditary health problems. Their exercise requirements are surprisingly low - they prefer to curl up and have you pet them! Loving and loyal, your greyhound is your fast friend for life! |
Greyhound Pet Adoption Springfield MO is an all volunteer 501(c)3 non-profit organization that provides information, education, promotion of adoption and adoption of retired racing Greyhounds. We also promote cooperation with other adoption programs nationwide to further the placement of Greyhounds as pets into responsible loving homes. We believe in not only doing the best we can adopting Greyhounds in the Ozarks, but also in assisting groups in areas that are so overwhelmed with huge numbers of Greyhounds to help that they must be transported to other adoption programs throughout the US.

MEET IZZY, OUR FEATURED GREYHOUND

Izzy is a calm sweet girl, and made herself right at home as soon as she arrived. She is affectionate and likes attention. She just finished racing and she turned 4 in March. She would be fine with another dog but no cats for her.
