Maine Greyhound Placement Service (MGPS) is a humane, non-profit organization dedicated to finding loving, responsible homes for retired racing greyhounds that can no longer compete on the racetrack. MGPS is operated by volunteers and depends on fundraising for its operating expenses.

What better way to add to your family...adopt a retired racing greyhound... see what a difference it will make...our kennel has many beautiful greyhounds to choose from - call today for an appointment.

Maine Greyhound Placement Service, a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and finding homes for retired racing greyhounds is currently trying to raise funds to build a new adoption center in Augusta. This new adoption center, being centrally located in the state, will allow the service to increase the number of greyhounds placed in loving homes.
