***Adoption Fee Update***
Due to the decline in the number of greyhounds available in the US, we are now looking to Ireland as a second source for dogs. Consequently, our transportation fees have increased significantly requiring us to increase our adoption fee to $950. The new fee will take effect for any application received on or after May 1st 2022.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTICE 10/17/2021- PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
WE ARE ONCE AGAIN UPDATING OUR POLICY. WE ARE ONLY ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FROM PEOPLE IN CT WITH CURRENT OR PREVIOUS GREYHOUND OR LARGE DOG EXPERIENCE. IF YOU LIVE IN RI, YOU MUST HAVE ADOPTED FROM FROM CGA IN THE PAST

--------------------------------------------------------------------
We are going to participate in an event on September 25th (one week after the Picnic) known as the Great Global Greyhound Walk 2022. "The Great Global Greyhound Walk is an annual dog-walking event that brings together greyhounds, lurchers, other sighthounds and their owners to raise awareness of the breeds and show the public just what wonderful pets they make." We have chosen Hubbard Park in Meriden for this event based on its central location and great walking trails. It will be an opportunity to meet other greyhound and sighthound owners and promote CGA and greyhound adoption...not to mention a nice "walk in the park"! Mark your calendars and look for more information at the Picnic.
Both of these events will be promoted on both Facebook and Instagram.
One final note...
The "Celebrating Greyhounds 2023 Calendar" will be published this Fall and some of our own CGA hounds will be featured (it is a secret for now). We are very proud of this and will announce when the calendars will be available for sale. A portion of the proceeds will go to CGA.
Enjoy the rest of summer...keep safe and have fun...we look forward to seeing everyone in September!
