Ben ARP

2 years old

Listen up! Ben is on the hunt for his forever home! Whilst he is still young and lacking a little bit of confidence in the world, we have no doubt he will shine as a pet in the right home. Due to his quiet and cautious nature we think he will be better suited to a home with teens or just adults, eithe by himself or another calm, respectful and polite dog of any size to show him the ropes and a backyard to relax in is a must. Are you sweet Ben's new family!?

This dog is part of our Assisted Rehoming Program (ARP). We have behavioural and health assessed this lovely dog, and they will remain with their racing owners until they find an adoptive home, at which point they are brought back into GAP. This means that should you be interested in adopting this dog, we are bringing the dog into GAP on the understanding that you will be adopting this particular dog, and not other dogs currently in our care.

Peter

Peter

7 years old

Peter is a friendly, outgoing, and confident male greyhound who loves meeting people and being part of the action. He has completed behavioural rehabilitation training and has shown great progress, though he will still need continued guidance to polish his manners. Peter’s enthusiastic personality makes him a fun and engaging companion for adopters who enjoy an interactive dog with plenty of character. Peter is best suited to a home with adults or children aged 10 and up. He can live as an only dog or with a medium to large canine companion but is not suitable for homes with cats or small dogs. Due to his size, energy, and ongoing need for structure, he is not recommended for homes with elderly residents. With consistency and a confident household, Peter will thrive into a loyal and rewarding lifelong companion. Peter has had a dislocated toe prior to GAP entry. He bears weight on this limb and the toe is stable and not causing pain. He also has an auto immune disease that affects the eyes, called "Pannus". The symptoms are controlled with daily eye drops.

Montana

3 years old

Meet Montana. Montana is a quiet, polite girl with a soft and sweet nature. She's friendly and personable, forming gentle connections with those around her, and loves a bit of attention once she feels comfortable. While she can be a little anxious and submissive at times, Montana really does try her best in new situations. She has the cutest bursts of zoomies that show off her playful side. Montana may suit a home on her own or may even suit living with any size dogs. She could be suitable for a family with children aged 10+, and her calm nature may also make her a lovely match for an elderly owner. She will need a home with a backyard to let out her zoomies.

Alice

Alice

4 years old

Alice is a stunning female greyhound with an outgoing personality to match her looks. She’s a confident, extroverted girl who loves being part of the action and greeting the world with enthusiasm. Alice is excitable and a little impulsive at times, which only adds to her charm—she’s the type of dog who wears her heart on her sleeve. She would thrive in a home with adults or children aged 10+, where her lively nature and playful energy can be appreciated and guided. Alice would be best suited as an only dog, or with a calm medium to large canine companion who can handle her confident style. She is not cat friendly and will need a securely fenced backyard to burn off her energy and relax afterwards—apartment living isn’t for her. Due to her strength, excitement, and enthusiasm for life, she’s not suitable for elderly adopters. In the right home, Alice will be a devoted, entertaining, and affectionate companion who brings joy and personality in equal measure.

Jett

5 years old

No items found.
Meet Jett, if you’re looking for a big, fun-loving personality to bring energy into your life — Jett might just be your perfect match. Jett is a handsome, social boy who absolutely loves being around people. He’s friendly, outgoing and full of confidence, with a playful, puppyish nature that shines through in everything he does. Whether it’s chasing toys, enjoying treats, or bouncing around with excitement, Jett lives life at full speed and brings a lot of joy (and laughs) with him. He’s an eager boy who wants to please and thrives on interaction, but he can be boisterous and a little rough at times. Because of this, Jett will need an experienced handler who is comfortable with larger, excitable dogs and can continue to guide him with consistent training and structure. Jett may suit living with a robust medium or large dog who can match his playful energy. He could also be suitable for a home with kids 10+, provided they are confident and experienced around big, lively dogs. A secure backyard is a must for Jett, giving him the space he needs to burn off energy and enjoy his playful zoomies. Jett is a big character with an even bigger heart — and in the right home, he’s going to be an incredibly fun and rewarding companion.
