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 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.

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

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 visit Pet Meds for more information about Pet Meds supporting rescue organizations.

COGR is a proud recipient of a Pedigree Foundation grant.
Pedigree also very generously donates the food we feed our foster hounds.
