Please call first so that we can switch the phone line over to the fax machine (we could pay for a separate fax line, but that money is better used supporting the Galgos)
Please note, the adoption fee has been increased due to the immense increase in transportation costs. Our current average cost for transporting one dog from Spain to the United States is $900 so any additional donations are welcome.
The $750.00 adoption fee includes the following:
- A wonderful, new life long companion.
- The following services preformed by one of GRIN's Galgo knowledgeable veterinarians: spay or neuter
- The cost of transporting your Galgo from Spain or other location.
- A Martingale style collar, a buckle collar affixed with a GRIN ID tag and 6 ft. leash.
- On-going support for the life of your Galgo.
