About Kansas City Retired Greyhounds as Pets
Kansas City Retired Greyhounds as Pets (KCREGAP) is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to finding loving homes for retired greyhounds and other sighthounds. Since the organization began in 1990, more than 6000 greyhounds/sighthounds have found their forever homes within our adoption radius.
These dogs may be anywhere from under 1 year old to 8 or 9 years old when they come to our group, and come from different backgrounds. They then receive any needed veterinary care, including: spay/neuter, dental cleaning, vaccinations, heartworm preventative, and treatment for any intestinal parasites. The dogs are then placed in foster homes so that they can learn “house rules” as many have never been in a home before, and may have never seen stairs, have had a dog bed of their own, or played with toys. These special foster families help to make the dogs’ transition to their forever home a success.
