Welcome to "The Greyhound Inmate Experience"
Celebrating 10 years and graduating close to 1000 greyhounds!
We invite you to spend a few minutes exploring our site to get better
acquainted and learn more about this all inspiring program that
touches the lives of so many people.
The Greyhound Inmate Experience is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) Michigan
volunteer
organization. Our purpose is to socialize, train, and care for retired greyhounds
in a prison environment and to educate the public of the redemptive qualities and
rehabilitative benefits of the program.
Every ten weeks twenty greyhounds are put into the care and
supervision of forty specially selected and trained incarcerated dog
handlers. As the greyhounds transition from racer to pet, people's
lives are also transformed.
This program touches the soul of everyone
connected to it. Learn more about our inspiration, our adoption
partners who find forever homes for our graduates and our Supportive
Friends who contribute on an on-going basis...we could not do
this without them!
