Welcome to REGAP of Illinois!
Retired Greyhounds as Pets

REGAP of Illinois, Inc. is a Chicagoland area/Central Illinois based, non-profit, adoption group. We are a 100% volunteer, 501c3 charitable organization. Our mission is to take in these magnificent dogs after they retire, find loving forever homes for them and to inform the public that adopting a retired racing Greyhound is an excellent decision.

Greyhounds are loving, devoted pets who, contrary to popular belief, are obedient, intelligent, calm and relaxed dogs.




To find out more about adopting a Greyhound, please contact:

(Please e-mail or call to make an appointment to see the dogs available)

xx Just a little housecleaning ...

I have just finished going thru our memberlist and have deleted a whole bunch of people who 1. have not logged in for over a year and 2. had no posts whatsoever.  If you've posted even once, you're safe.  If you have logged in within the last 365 days, you're safe.

Nothing against anyone, but the larger the list, the larger the database is.  The larger the database is, the longer it takes for the software to sort thru it to find stuff.  The longer the software takes, the slower the site runs.  It's all connected!

I realize that there will be "lurkers" ... the people who get on the site and read stuff but never post.  Rest assured that if you are a lurker you're still safe ... as long as you keep lurking!  Keep logging in and show an active presence and I won't remove your account.  Create an account and then never use it again, and you'll get booted.





xx Site Maintenance
Aug 19 '11 - 10:10 am by Becca



Hey all!  I am going to be pulling the REGAP site offline over the weekend in order to move it to a new host.  I have to do this so that files don't get changed while I'm trying to move them - so we don't lose stuff.

I don't expect the move to take very long, but of course there could be unexpected issues.  Take some time to do whatever you need to do tonight and tomorrow for updates, fixes, etc.  If all goes well, I anticipate Monday morning we'll be back up and running as before.

While things are down, I will post updates on the Facebook groups page @ http://www.facebook.com/groups/11162494707.  I will also set up a temp page on my own site (will edit this to link to it before I lock down the site) - you won't be able to respond but I can keep you informed at least!

xx Great New MNG at Yorkville Petsmart
Today at 04:20 PM by kimster



Today was Dexter's first MNG at our new store in Yorkville.  We had lots of visitors and lots of nice donations.  Hopefully we can get some more Regapers out there with us.  We will be there the third Sunday of the month at the Yorkville Petsmart. Please come join us.  The more the merrier.   Dexter is exhausted and is taking a well deserved nap.

xx I need a Foster Home for Jumper
May 19 '12 - 11:11 am by Grrdog



We are got Jumper returned this morning.  She is soooooo scared!  She is only comfortable with women.  When the Nieciak family came out to look at her, I didn't think that she would do well with a busy family.  Jumper just LOVED them!  I was pleasantly surprised.  They took her home.  Since bringing her home she has gotten worse day to day.  She will pee anytime anyone approaches her.  The only person that she won't do that to is Cathy.  The kids have been on their best behavior around her.  Cathy said that she can't believe how quiet her house has been.  She's going to miss that.   Grin  As much as it pained them to return Jumper, they felt that she wasn't happy. 

Here is what I think she needs:  another Gryhd, no kids, someone that will work with her issues.  If you think that you would be able to help Jumper, I would really appreciate it.  I'm going to have her live in my office.  Maybe that will make her more comfortable with people coming and going.

Love, Mona
