PERSONAL WORK: GREYHOUND RESCUE - FOSTER

Since 1993, New Jersey Greyhound Adoption Program (NJGAP) has placed 2,000 rescued racing greyhounds into adoptive families. Volunteers provide a foster home until the dogs are placed into a permanent home.

"Ellla" is a new arrival into the program, where she will spend the next few weeks with a volunteer foster family, Wendy and Dave. There, she will learn a series of "first" experiences such as how to climb stairs, how to walk on leash, play in the snow, and most important-what it is to have a home.
