Adopting an IG

The four-step process -

  1. Application
  2. Home Visit
  3. Discussion (on which foster dogs might be a good fit with you)
  4. Meeting (available foster dogs)

Please fill out the online Adoption Application. You must be 21 years old and looking to adopt a dog for yourself.

Please fill out all information as requested. Incomplete applications will be discarded.

We will check references and contact you within 10-14 days if we are going to continue on with a home visit.

A physical home visit is required, and will be done by a Lifeline volunteer. We can only consider your application if we have a volunteer who lives within driving distance of your home.

If the applicant has been approved for adoption - after reference checking and a home visit - we talk about which foster dogs might be a good fit, and at that time, introduce the applicant to dogs in foster care.

When a match has been made between approved adopter and a foster dog, we do require that adopters travel to the foster home to finalize the adoption. We do not ship dogs and do not provide transportation to new homes.

We recommend you read all about IGs here first.

Meeting an IG

To 'Meet the Breed':  If you're not sure if Italian Greyhounds are a good match for you, we can arrange for you to meet an IG. Please email your full name, address and date of birth if you would like to meet with a volunteer and his/her IG. We check references prior to any visits.

To contact regarding meeting an IG, please email jenny@italiangreyhoundrescue.org.  We recommend you read all about IGs here first.
