Blaster is as sweet as they come, with a personality that’s full of wonderful layers. He’s curious, sometimes playful, other times mellow, and just a little timid when faced with unexpected sounds or sudden movements. Above all, he’s eager to learn and connect with his people. His soft, black coat feels like velvet, making him just as irresistible to pet as he is to be around.

Blaster has enjoyed zoomies in his foster home’s yard, but indoors he’s a calm, laid-back companion who is happy to relax by your side. He’s incredibly respectful of the resident senior dog and shows very little interest in squirrels during walks. He’s house-trained in his foster home and is steadily building confidence as he learns to navigate stairs.

Tall, athletic, and strong, Blaster is impressively mindful of his size and carries himself with gentle self-control. Because he’s powerful, and a bit sensitive, he’ll thrive with active, dog-savvy adopters who can continue building his confidence through positive guidance and consistent structure. Due to his size and zest for life, a home without young children would be the best fit. He also did not do well with cats during his initial testing, so a cat-free home is recommended.

At almost 3 years old, Charger is settling into retirement beautifully. Aside from needing a cat-free home, he’s about as close to perfect as they come. He’s a true gentleman—friendly and affectionate without being pushy, easygoing with other greyhounds, and an absolute pleasure to have around.

He proved what a great guy he is during the long 10-hour trip from West Virginia to New York, riding patiently alongside the other hounds without missing a beat. His calm, sweet nature has continued to shine since arriving in foster care.

Of course, as Charger gets more comfortable with pet life, we’re expecting a little mischief here and there—and honestly, that’s part of the fun! Watching these retired racers discover toys, couches, and all the little joys of being a beloved family dog is one of the best parts of the journey.

Charger has only been with us for a week, so we’re still getting to know him. Stay tuned for updates as this handsome boy settles in and lets his personality blossom!

Fantasia, affectionately known as Fanny, is an absolutely adorable girl who will soon be celebrating her 3rd birthday on September 5th. She’s every bit as sweet as she looks! With her striking black-and-white coat and soulful eyes little pink & black depigmented nose, she’s a beauty on the outside, but it’s her gentle, loving nature that will truly steal your heart.

Fanny is a tender-hearted little soul. She can be a bit shy and submissive at first, but she very much wants to be friends and often looks to her people for reassurance and approval. Once she feels safe, her sweet personality shines through beautifully.

She gets along well with other dogs, both large and small. Cats are still a bit of a mystery for her — her initial testing suggested she may not be suitable for a home with cats, though she has calmly observed some from a distance without interest. One thing we do know for sure: as the photo shows, she’s quite comfortable around horses!

Fantasia would thrive in a quieter home with another confident dog to help show her the ropes and build her confidence. A peaceful environment will help this sensitive girl blossom, while a loud, rowdy household may feel a little overwhelming for her.

She truly is a diamond in the rough. With a little patience, love, and gentle guidance, Fantasia will shine brighter than the sun. Beneath that timid exterior is an absolute angel just waiting for the right family to help her sparkle.

Mr. Hammer here, reporting live from foster headquarters!

I’m currently living with two foster sisters. Sure, I’m the big guy in the house, but I’m a total gentleman and always respect their space. I like having my little entourage around, but if I’m home alone after a nice walk, I might sing the song of my people with a few tiny peeps before deciding a nap is a much better idea.

Let’s talk about my favorite subject: FOOD. I’ve got an internal dinner clock that is never wrong. When it’s time to eat, I politely remind foster mom with adorable little whines and a sprint to the kitchen. Pretty smart, huh? I’m also excellent at letting her know when I need a potty break. On leash? I’m a potty pro. I’ve even got such a reliable schedule that foster mom cheers for me like I just won an Olympic medal.

Apparently I’m a bit of a ham…which is fitting because, well, Hammer. I love dramatically flopping onto the floor, rolling around with my toys, and generally entertaining everyone with my goofy antics.

For the first few days, foster mom nicknamed me Shadow because I followed her everywhere. These days I’ve gained some confidence and enjoy wandering the house on my own. I even discovered this magical invention called a dog bed. It’s fantastic! I’m perfectly happy snoozing there—I don’t need to steal the human bed or the couch.

Out on walks, I’m the definition of a gentleman. I walk nicely on leash, love meeting new people, and soak up compliments about my spectacular ears (they really are showstoppers). Sometimes unexpected noises make me pause, but I always check in with foster mom for a little reassurance. A few kind words and some pets, and I’m ready to keep going. Every new adventure makes me a little braver. Case in point: stairs. The first time? Absolutely not. Now? Call me Rocky—I conquer them like a champ.

Life in foster care has been pretty great, but what I really dream about is a family to call my own. If you’re looking for a goofy sidekick, a world-class cuddle buddy, and a sweet boy who will keep you laughing every day, I’m your guy. I promise to fill your home with kisses, smiles, and plenty of Hammer-sized happiness.

Sweet Layla has already overcome more than her share of challenges, and through it all, she’s never stopped being the loving, gentle girl we know and adore.

In November 2025, while doing what she loved most—running a race—Layla suffered a broken leg. Thanks to Greyhound Rescue & Rehab, she received the surgery she needed and recovered beautifully with the devoted care of her wonderful trainers. By April, she had healed completely and all of her implants were removed. She was ready for the next chapter of her life.

That chapter began in May when Layla made the trip from West Virginia to New York and was adopted into what we hoped would be her forever home. Sadly, despite having previous greyhound experience, her adopter found that Layla struggled with separation anxiety, and after just a month she was returned to our care.

We knew this sweet girl deserved another chance, so she moved into a foster home where she’s been thriving. With guidance from our veterinarian and a little medication to help ease her anxiety while her foster mom gradually worked on short absences, Layla has made wonderful progress.

We do believe she’ll be happiest in a home where she won’t be left alone for long stretches of time and where another greyhound—or even two!—can keep her company. She truly enjoys having canine friends around.

Layla is an absolute sweetheart. She’s friendly and affectionate, walks beautifully on leash, gets along with dogs of all sizes, and has a playful side too—she absolutely loves her toys!

What Layla needs now is a family who understands that adjusting takes time and is willing to continue helping her build confidence when left alone. In return, you’ll gain a loyal, loving companion who has so much affection to give.

Could you be the family she’s been waiting for? Layla is ready to fill your home with love.

Like any young dog, Morgan is full of curiosity, enthusiasm, and just the right amount of mischief. One of her favorite pastimes is proudly dragging bath mats out of the bathroom, so a family with a good sense of humor will appreciate her playful spirit and zest for life.

Because the world is still new to her, Morgan can be a little shy around sudden loud noises or unexpected hand and arm movements. With patience, kindness, and reassurance, her confidence continues to grow every day.

A securely fenced yard with a 6-foot fence is a must. Morgan has already demonstrated her impressive athleticism by effortlessly jumping onto a 30-inch-high table, so she’ll need a yard that’s as safe as it is spacious.

This precious girl is a diamond in the rough, and with continued love, guidance, and patience, she’s sure to shine. Morgan is ready to reward the family who gives her the chance with a lifetime of affection, laughter, and unwavering devotion.

Meet Reactor—a retired racing legend who’s ready to trade the track for the couch!

After an incredible 130-race career in West Virginia, Reactor’s devoted trainer knew he’d earned his retirement. Born into a lightning-fast litter at Tri-State, he raced alongside his superstar brothers, Nail Biter and Sun Storm, and more than held his own. Now his racing days are behind him, and he’s ready to become the MVP of someone’s family.

Reactor’s personality is every bit as impressive as his racing résumé. He’s friendly, outgoing, cheerful, and always eager to make people smile. Whether he’s meeting new friends or soaking up attention, this handsome guy has a way of winning hearts wherever he goes.

One thing we can tell you with absolute certainty? Cats are not on his fan club list. He “failed” his cat test in spectacular fashion—after all, he spent his career chasing a fuzzy lure at top speed, so old habits die hard! A cat-free home is definitely the way to go.

Reactor has been close to our hearts for years as we’ve proudly followed his racing career from the beginning. It’s a true privilege to help him start this exciting new chapter, and we can’t wait to see him discover the joys of retirement. Soft beds, squeaky toys, leisurely walks, and plenty of zoomies are all in his future.

Now all that’s missing is the family who will cheer him on in the greatest race of all—the race to his couch.

Sam is one incredibly handsome dark brindle with the most soulful, expressive eyes. Nothing escapes his notice—whether it’s a fluttering bird, a falling leaf, or something moving in the distance, he’s always taking in the world around him. While he may come across as a little enthusiastic when you first meet him, it doesn’t take long for his easygoing, affectionate personality to shine. He’s a sweet boy who genuinely wants to make his people happy.

A true nature lover, Sam believes every walk is an adventure. He’ll happily inspect every leaf, stop to sniff every flower, and could spend ages watching birds with endless fascination. He’s curious in the most charming way.

Sam is wonderfully friendly and never says no to a good ear rub. In fact, your hand will probably get tired before he’s ready for you to stop! At home, he’s an expert at dramatic bed flops and long, cozy naps, but the crinkle of a snack wrapper or the sight of his favorite person heading for the door has him up in an instant, excited to see what adventure might come next.

One of Sam’s newest discoveries is the joy of dog toys, and it’s been a delight to watch. He proudly carries his favorite toy from room to room, as if making sure it’s always close by.

Sam is the kind of dog who brings a smile wherever he goes—a gentle, curious, and loving companion who’s ready to share life’s little adventures and plenty of quiet moments with the lucky family who welcomes him home.

Sometimes life doesn’t seem to play fair, and that’s certainly been the case for our sweet little Sitchy. At just 2 years old, she’s already faced more than her share of challenges, but you would never know it by the way she greets each day—with a happy heart, a playful spirit, and so much love to give.

When we welcomed Sitchy into foster care, we knew something wasn’t quite right with her left eye. After a visit to the outstanding ophthalmology team at the Animal Medical Center in NYC, she was diagnosed with Pannus, an immune-mediated eye condition that causes the body to attack the cornea. Left untreated, it can eventually lead to blindness. The good news is that with lifelong medication and regular care, the condition can be managed. While only her left eye is currently affected, both eyes are being treated to help keep them healthy.

The best part? Sitchy has absolutely no idea she has a medical condition. She’s far too busy enjoying life! She loves to play, soaks up every scratch and pet she can get, and has the sweetest, most endearing personality that makes everyone who meets her fall in love.

Like many retired racers, she’s been learning all about life as a pet. She can be a little shy about doing her business while on leash, so a securely fenced yard would make life much easier for her. She’s already made wonderful progress and continues to gain confidence every day. There is one thing we do know for certain—Sitchy thinks cats are way too exciting, so a feline-free home is a must.

On paper, it might seem like Sitchy has a few strikes against her: a lifelong eye condition, she’d love a fenced yard, would welcome another hound for security but no cats. But anyone lucky enough to know her will tell you those are tiny details compared to the joy she’ll bring to her forever family.

Somewhere out there is the person who will look past the checkboxes and see what we see—a young, happy girl with an enormous heart, ready to love with everything she’s got. We know that family is out there, and when they find Sitchy, they’ll wonder how they ever lived without her.  And to that special family, we will provide 3 months of her medication.
