Monica's Heart Greyhound Adoption

PLEASE READ "ADDITIONAL INFORMATION " As many of you know by now, Monica’s Heart will cease adoptions at the end of 2020. Thanks retired racers and brood mamas.

Since our inception in 1996, we have placed over with 1,700 retired racers. It has been a wonderful 24 years working with you and with these beautiful, elegant creatures. We will still take in dogs that need to be returned, and will be on hand if you have questions or concerns. We have found homes for almost 1,700 dogs, and most foster folks will agree that we have fallen in love with your furkids

before introducing them to you. There has been success and heartache, laughter and tears, hours and hours of work – meeting haulers in the middle of the night, and then bathing them before bringing them home, taking them to the vet for various services, changing bandages and giving meds, and meeting to move dogs on to other foster homes. There has also been tears over “letting them go” when we would have liked to keep another dog, but adopting them out when “the right home” came along. We will be working with our board and will consult an attorney about dissolving the organization. Therefore, we are no longer soliciting donations after our current raffle. The last newsletter will be issued in December, therefore there will be no dues solicitation. Thanks to everyone who has been a part of the Monica’s Heart organization – board members, foster people, volunteers, meet and greet organizers, fundraisers. We are also deeply thankful for the veterinarians that worked with us over the years. We sincerely appreciate all of your efforts on behalf of our successes. I believe that Monica Joyce would be very proud of what we have accomplished in her name., too, to the owners/trainers who have enabled us to find homes for their

Please do not hesitate to contact us, now or in the future, should you have any questions or concerns about your adopted greyhound or in regards to returning one of our adopted dogs that you can no longer care for.

Did you know that if you have a pacemaker, you can include it in your Will to be donated to a dog in need after you pass away?
Although pacemakers cannot be used for another human, they can help dogs with heart problems and potentially save their lives. You can arrange for the pacemaker to be sent to a vet of your choice.
Many pacemakers are simply thrown away, and dogs may die because people do not know about this option.
Donating the pacemaker can even save the dog's owner the cost of a new one, which can sometimes make a crucial difference in affording life-saving treatment
