The Caliente Track Has Closed, But We Are Still Busy!
We were told in early July that it was closing, and there were about 200 dogs there that needed homes. We worked with GreySave, the National Greyhound Association, the track and others on the mechanics, but all the dogs are out and are in permanent homes. There are no more dogs available for adoption.
We will still hold Dog Washes thru 2025 and will have our Annual Christmas Party. Calendars are available for sale. Scroll down to learn more about both events and Calendar sales.
FastFriends is dedicated to placing retired racing greyhounds
in loving homes in Southern California.
Are you interested in adopting a greyhound?
Be sure to browse our website for helpful information. You can learn about ex-racers, our adoption process, and even submit an application. We do post our available dogs, but please note that you will have to complete our adoption process and choose from the dogs that match your needs and preferences.
If you need any extra help, be sure to contact us!
We are an all volunteer, non-profit, charitable 501(c)(3) organization with no paid or salaried positions. We accomplish our goal through the dedication of a wonderful group of hard-working volunteers devoted to helping ex-racing greyhounds achieve a happy post-racing life. Backing up our volunteers is a group of loyal supporters who participate in our varied fundraising efforts. We have re-homed nearly 4,500 ex-racers and have no plans of slowing down.
