Greyhound Pets of America-South Carolina,
incorporated in South Carolina as
Carolina Greyhound Adoptions, is a nonprofit volunteer group of Greyhound owners and enthusiasts in and around South Carolina.
We are proud to be a chapter of
Greyhound Pets of America, the largest non-profit greyhound adoption group in the United States. Since 1987, Greyhound Pets of America and its affiliates have adopted over 65,000 greyhounds into loving homes.
We are devoted to finding homes for retired racing Greyhounds, as well as educating the public about the Greyhound as a companion dog. Greyhounds are calm, sweet-natured, intelligent dogs who crave human companionship and affection. They make ideal house pets and get along well with children and other animals.
●●MICROCHIPPING●●
To insure that if any
of our greyhounds become lost, he or
she can be quickly identified and
returned faster and safer, GPA-South
Carolina has been microchipping our
foster dogs since 2002. It costs you
nothing to register your grey's
microchip -- there is no
registration fee or annual fee with
24 Pet Watch. Collars and ID tags
can come off or can be removed.
Although ear tattoos are a way for
you to identify your greyhound,
outside of the "greyhound world",
ear tattoos are rarely checked at
animal shelters and give the shelter
no way to contact the dog's owner.
Microchips are scanned for at every
shelter, and one toll-free call to
the Recovery Center Data will
identify you and your telephone
number. Registering your greyhound's
microchip is the best way to insure
his or her safe return.
If you have
previously registered your
greyhound's microchip, but have
moved or your telephone number has
changed, you can easily up-date the
info on 24 Pet watch's website -
