Hey folks, we're bringing in more retired greyhounds on Saturday November 29th and we are very short on fosters! We need your help! If you've fostered or adopted from us before, please reply in the comments and we'll reach out to you. If you're interested in fostering or adopting and haven't done either with FastFriends before, please apply with the link below as there's still time to get you set up in time for the 29th! This will be our last foster event of the year - don't leave those pups waiting for new homes.

FastFriends primarily adopts our greyhounds in areas to which we can provide direct support. As such, we welcome applications from the Greater Los Angeles area, including Los Angeles County, Orange County, Western Riverside County and parts of Ventura, Kern, San Bernardino, San Diego and Santa Barba...
