POOPBAGS

Greyhound Waste Retrieval & Disposal System (Poopbags)

The almost ultimate bag for cleaning up after your Greyhound is available from GreyKen and GS-NCR at affordable prices.  At about 15 inches long and in rolls of 2000 sheets, one roll will last about 1.6 years for one adult dog, or several months for four or more adult canines.  Cost to you only $25.00 per roll.  Call or e-mail to reserve your bags: 613-216-8097.

Do you have empty ink cartridges or old cell phones??!!

We will recycle them for you.

The Greyhound Supporters (National Capital Region) (www.gsncr.ca) will gladly accept them.  We then re-distribute them out to Greyhound Adoption Groups, who work with local recycling companies and obtain money in exchange for them. Funds received are applied to offset vet expenses and help pay other bills they have incurred.

For more information, please contact us at info@gsncr.ca.
