Attention all adopters who still have a HOH tag on their dog! We apologize but these tags are no longer good and the number isn't answered by anyone. Please remove them from your dog, and please make sure to have your own tag with your information on your dog. We do want to help if your dog is lost, so you are welcome to let us know and we will help to get the word out! Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. 


Come out and meet adoptable greyhounds and fellow greyhounds at these upcoming events!

About Us

Hounds of the Heartland is an incorporated, 501-(c)(3) not for profit group under the national direction of Greyhound Pets of America.

Hounds of the Heartland of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, is a non-profit humane greyhound adoption organization dedicated to finding loving, responsible homes for both retired racing greyhounds and for young greyhounds not placed on the race track. Our aim is to let the public know what excellent, loving pets these noble dogs make.


We wanted to let you know, beginning this year, Hounds of the Heartland is changing some of our adoption guidelines.

Due to the national shortage of adoptable greyhounds with closings of tracks and farms, we will only work applications in the Oklahoma City metro areas to include: Bethany, Edmond, Moore, Norman, Mustang, Piedmont, Warr Acres and Yukon.

Because of this delay, we ask for your patience with the adoption application process. Please know, applications can take weeks to find the right dog for your home. Applications with cats, can take even longer.

Hounds of the Heartland will no longer adopt to families living in apartments, or without a fenced in yard.

Thank you for your continued support and love of these magnificent creatures!

Happy Tails
