"The Greatest Thing I've Ever Known... Someone Came and Took Me Home!"

It is our duty to ensure that you get a healthy, loving greyhound and that the greyhound gets a good home with people that will take care of him or her. We strive to match each of our wonderful animals with the wonderful family the dog is best suited for because we want everyone to be happy. To that end, we've created the following application.

Upon receipt of your application, a Greyhound Adoption of Ohio volunteer will contact you. Please do keep in mind that the people involved are volunteers that have jobs and lives away from the organization, so they might not be able to get back to you immediately; but they will contact you as soon as possible.

If you would prefer to fill out this form, print it out and send it in, please click HERE.


NOTE: If you are having problems when submitting this or other forms on our site, please be sure to temporarily disable any firewalls (such as Norton Internet Security or McAfee) that you may have running on your system. Usually, there is an icon in the notification area that you simply have to right click on and disable. Once you submit the form, right click again and enable.

If after submitting your application, you should be directed to a "thank you" page... if you are getting some type of error instead, chances are, it's your firewall that is keeping you from submitting the form!

ATTENTION!!! If you submit your application and don't hear from us within 48 hours, please call us 440-543-6256 or 800-269-1148! Thank you!!
