Central Ohio Greyhound Rescue

Welcome!

Central Ohio Greyhound Rescue was incorporated in June 2003.
We are a nonprofit all volunteer 501 (c) (3) organization that relies
solely on fundraising and donations to continue our work.
Our goal is promote greyhound adoption in the Central Ohio area.

Between the track and their new homes our local greyhounds live in
foster homes where "foster parents" help them learn he the facts of home
life and become familiar with the personality of each dog.
COGR attempts to match dog’s temperaments to the lifestyles of
the prospective adopters as much as possible.

Our goal is to make permanent lifelong placements for our greyhounds where both the adopter and dogs are happy and to provide ongoing support to our greyhounds and adopters after the adoption.

In addition to our own Columbus foster greyhounds, COGR is also working together with Greyhounds Adopting Families out of West Virginia to assist them in placing some of their retired racers as well as GPA Tampa Bay. Please check out the listing of WV Adoptables as well as the GPA Tampa Bay site for a listing of available greyhounds.
Because of our limited space in Columbus foster homes, the dogs listed on our WV Adoptables page are not currently in foster homes.

COGR will only place dogs in the Central Ohio area.

Please visit the The Greyhound Project, Inc. site for a geographical listing of adoption groups across the country.

Please make sure to stop by our Adoption Process page for more information.
