We are a 100% foster-home network, with a very personalized approach to adoption. Fostering our dogs tells us a lot about them. Our application process tells us a lot about you. Why do we bother? There is a huge payoff in the long run -- we do quite well at matching the right dog with the right home...and making everyone concerned very happy! Greyhound Welfare is a 501(c)3 non-profit placing dogs in Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, and West Virginia.
