I am very excited to tell you that we have 11 dogs coming up from Florida on December 5th!
Thank you all for your quick response and willingness to open your heart and home!
With the additional dogs that NJGAP is taking the truck is now full at 43 dogs. This means that GPA Central Florida has the space to bring additional dogs in to their rescue kennel from Orlando and Pensacola. Kennels are closing at both of these tracks which creates additional stresses on an already stressed rescue system. Many of the dogs in Pensacola are not in good shape and cannot be moved at this time. GPA-CF will work to rehabilitate these dogs so that they too can experience adoption and the love & care of a permanent home.
Thank you again!!
In gratitude,
Jennifer

WHAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING with NJGAP
Sorry that it has been a while since I have posted!
In addition to our the wonderful work of our Meet & Greet crews, I have very exciting news to share-due to the efforts of the famed photographer, Mark Menditto, NJGAP has a spread in the magazine, The Bark. The issue is out TODAY!! Thanks to Mark for telling the greyhound story in such an eloquent and poignant way-he has touched many hearts and saved many greyhounds!
We are in NEED of foster homes-the way that we are able to handle the rescue of greyhounds is to place each one in to a loving foster home for a period of about 2 weeks.
At the present time there are seasonal track closings to deal with as well as the State of Florida actually closing a kennel at the Pensacola track. There are 96 dogs from this Pensacola situation and they are not in good shape. Greyhound Pets of America-Melbourne will be taking dogs in from Pensacola as well as the Orlando track. The more dogs we can take on the next Florida run (December 5th) the more dogs can be saved from these other situations.
Please consider opening your heart and home to a foster greyhound!!
You can access our foster manual and foster application at www.njgap.com.
If you have any questions you can contact the rescue line at 908-713-9344 or me personally at 908-303-9001.
Thank you for your support!!
