A message from the Board of Directors of Niagara Greyhound Adoption Inc.

Hello Volunteers, Adopters and Greyhounds

Our goal was to find forever homes for Greyhounds who failed to meet the grade at racing tracks throughout the United States. We have not been able to bring up new dogs so that they can become a new Canadian Citizens in 2 years. It is with heavy heart that Niagara Greyhound Adoption Inc. (NGA) has decided to close its doors after adopting Greyhounds to wonderful loving homes for the past 18 years.

The Board of Directors would like to thank all our Volunteers, Foster Parents, Home Visit Reps and our Forever Family’s for all their dedicated work. With out you we could not have done it.

It is our strongest wish for this good work to continue in the Niagara area and Greyhounds In Need of Adoption (GiNA ) has taken the reins to continue this good work. GiNA needs your help, so we strongly recommend that all NGA volunteers and adopters continue their efforts as well and are encouraged to do so by joining GiNA. Please read a letter from the president of GiNA to our volunteers and adopters.

Sincerely

Carl Grice
President

Special Thanks

Dear NGA Volunteers,

 

It was with sadness that GiNA learned that Niagara Greyhound Adoption was to close its doors after 18 greyt years promoting Greyhound adoption and countless successful adoption stories.

 

After consulting with your board of directors and current president, Carl Grice, GiNA - Greyhounds in Need of Adoption concluded that greyhound adoption in the Niagara region must go on and we want to help!

 

GiNA is writing to you today to all NGA Volunteers, Adopter and Greyhounds to formally invite you to join our organization.

 

We share similar goals since GiNA, also a registered non-profit organization, is dedicated to finding loving, responsible homes for retired racing Greyhounds.

 

GiNA's first and foremost concern is the safety and well being of our dogs. We pride ourselves on the amount of love and care we put into finding the perfect home for each one, and we go out of our way to meet and get to know all potential adoptive families to ensure each dog goes to the best possible home.

 

In that respect, GiNA will be looking for Home Visit Representatives in your area as well as continued volunteer support to organize local meet & greets under the GiNA umbrella.

 

Becoming a GiNA member doesn’t come without its benefits. In addition to helping us continue promoting greyhound adoption in the Niagara region, here are a few GiNA perks:

 

   Access to the Members Only area of meetgina.ca full of resources for new adopters, foster families and greyhound health information

   Tax receipt for any donations over and above the membership fee

   Savings at selected preferred vendors

   The Annual GiNA Newsletter, highlighting the “graduating class” of each year

   Attendance at the Annual GiNA Members Picnic

   Participation in dog runs and various other GiNA events

 

Visit meetgina.ca, our main website and take a peek at members.meetgina.ca as well as our Facebook page to see what we have been up to recently and what is coming up! It’s a very exciting year for GiNA!

 

While our annual membership fee is $35.00 for all those greyt perks, we would like to extend an invitation to all NGA Volunteers to join for this calendar year for only $5.00!

 

Simply use this NGA Volunteers Welcome to GiNA page to take advantage of this greyt offer.

 

We are looking forward to welcoming you into the GiNA family and hope to get to meet all of you and your wonderful greyhounds soon, either on Facebook or in person at our next meet & greet near you!

 

For the greyter good,

 

 

Yanick Landry, President

GiNA - Greyhounds in Need of Adoption
