He's 2 1/2, not cat or small dog tolerant, he's lovable, energetic, gets along great with other greyhounds and wants to please. He's been in foster care in CT since February and it really is time for him to find his furever home. If you have a fenced yard, time to engage him in some play and want constant entertainment, let Fizz into your heart! Contact Greyhound Rescue & Rehab

Edited 5/16/26 Kane has found his furever home!

If you live in LI, southern NYS or CT check out this beautiful boy, Kane, the Brindle Gentleman Ready for His Forever Home

Looking for a "diamond in the rough" who is already a polished gentleman? Meet Kane, a stunning 2-year-old brindle Greyhound who is ready to steal your heart (and probably your spot on the couch).
Kane is the definition of a velcro dog. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to be by your side through thick and thin, he’s your guy!
Kane absolutely adores people and gets along famously with the other Greyhounds in his foster home and once he’s comfortable with his surroundings, he walks like a dream.
With his calm, sweet temperament, Kane has all the makings of an incredible therapy dog, but he needs his privacy to “do his business” so a securely fenced yard is required. He just won’t “go” on leash.
While Kane has been profiled as not cat-safe, his foster notes he shows more curiosity than prey drive when seeing small critters outside. He may surprise everyone if paired with a very confident cat that isn't afraid to set firm boundaries—but for now, a cat-free home is the safest bet.
He thrives on human interaction and would love a home where people are around often and ideally love to have other hounds to romp around with.

Whoever welcomes Kane into their home won't just be getting a pet; they'll be gaining a truly special companion.

Edited - the auction has ended. Thank you!

Hey Friends,
Please dig into your closets or look around your home for donations to be included in our GRR Almost Spring 2026 auction. For 25 years Greyhound Rescue & Rehab (an NGA approved adoption group) has answered the call to help hounds find responsible homes. Healthy, sick, injured and no matter the color or gender, we’ve been there. We need you & this auction to replenish our sorely depleted medical fund. 100% is for the hounds.
Photos with description, suggested starting bid, dimensions (collar & shirts sizes for sure) and whether you will pay for shipping or collect it directly from the winner can be FB messaged to Nancy Nelson or emailed to [email protected]

URGENT
Here we go again.
For those in CT, LI and parts of NY a snow/state of emergency has been declared.
Go out with your dogs EVERY TIME. Wind gusts could bring down fences. Double check your gates as winds could gust up to 70 mph blowing them open. Dogs (especially sight hounds) may not be able to find their way back inside in white out conditions.
And remember, a 6' fence with 2' feet of snow becomes a 4' fence easy to hop over.
Keep your dogs safe. We can't search for a lost hound during a blizzard!!!

Edited - because of the wonderful outpouring of support, all dogs will have foster homes. Thank you for sharing and caring

Greyhound Rescue & Rehab is in a pickle and needs help! We are bringing 17 dogs in from WV on Feb 22. They will be completely vetted but a group that had committed to taking dogs has backed out. Is anyone in CT, southern NYS or Long Island available to foster. These are just a few of the many!

Today starts a long journey for this little girl, HLO’s Moana. From Norwich CT, to Brewster NY, to Binghamton, NY to her last stop in Hamburg NY. We have this very narrow window before Snowaggedon to get her to new mom Diana Weiss. She’s already loaded up on the first leg.
