When racing Greyhounds get too old to run anymore, they are extremely difficult to place with families and often end up at high-kill rate shelters.
This was nearly the case for Magilla, a former racing dog who has spent almost his entire life at the track. Racing Greyhounds are trained to be in perfect shape to perform, however they have many health problems as they grow older.
Greyhounds are not good with small animals, making them difficult to find families to adopt these otherwise sweet animals. Although Magilla is enjoying the retired life, he still needed the perfect home.
When a man who was looking for another Greyhound to keep his dog company came across Magilla's story, he finally found his forever home and my heart melted. I'm so happy this dog found a second chance at life!
Please SHARE his inspirational story to help other dogs in need of forever homes.
