NOSE CREW (NNC), a Greyhound adoption information organization,
began as a grass roots volunteer group in 1994. The mission
of the NNC is to assist Greyhound adoption and rescue agencies
in the placement of ex-racing Greyhounds in loving homes through
public awareness programs, shows, special events, and advertising.
As
such, NNC offers the prospective adoptive parent a list
of adoption agencies, information particular to the breed
and retired racers, as well as an opportunity to meet the
Greyhounds up close and personal. NNC volunteers offer anecdotal
accounts o f
life with their Greyhounds and offer support through past
experience and published resources.
NNC
is strictly volunteer and welcomes anyone who is dedicated
to the welfare of these rescued racers and their ultimate
match with loving, devoted homes and families.
