Ready to meet your new best mate?
There’s nothing quite like the bond between a person and their greyhound, it’s gentle, loyal, and full of quiet moments that make your heart smile. At GAP, we believe every greyhound deserves a loving home, and every home deserves the joy of a greyhound. Whether you’re a first-time dog owner, a seasoned pet lover, or just beginning to explore adoption, we’re here to help you every step of the way.
Adopting a greyhound is a simple, supportive process designed to find the best match for you and your lifestyle. We take the time to get to know you, introduce you to some wonderful greyhounds, and provide all the guidance and information you need to feel confident and ready.
From your first enquiry to the day you welcome your greyhound home - and well beyond - our team will be there to offer advice, answer questions, and cheer you on. Here’s what the journey looks like, and how to take the first step toward finding your new best friend.

Carly ARP
Carl is a quiet, gentle girl who enjoys taking life at her own pace. She can be a little submissive and cautious. While she can be anxious in new situations, she always tries her best and gains confidence with patience and kindness. Once she feels comfortable,her sweet and personable nature begins to shine through. Carly is looking for a home where she can continue to build her confidence. She may be suited to living as an only dog or with medium or large dogs. She also may be suited to live with older kids 15+, and she is best suited to a home with a backyard rather than an apartment.
This dog is part of our Assisted Rehoming Program (ARP). ARP dogs are kept 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 them. As such, you will not be able to meet any other dogs, as you otherwise would be able to.

Donny ARP
If you are looking for a big love bug that can be soft and cuddly then Donny may just be the love of your life. He is sweet and affectionate, but it can take him a little bit to feel comfortable with new people and environments. Once he is settled, he is a goofy oversized puppy that will lean on you for a good scratch. We think he may suit living with children 10 and over and with or without another medium or larger canine companion. No apartments for his boy though as he does like to show you his silly side and do zoomies!

Tessa ARP
How stunning is the cow print on this little girl! She is sweet, smart and soft, affectionate and can be a little shy to start but when she is comfortable she shows her silly, puppyish side and loves to do zoomies! We think she may suit living with another male dog of any size and children 10 and over as long as they are respectful of her space as she settles in. She may suit living with full time workers as well.

Donald ARP
This handsome man is Donald, but his mates affectionately call him Snowman for obvious reasons! He is all the sweetness in the world, loves to have a cuddle and will look up at you with his stunning eyes. You wont be able to stop patting him as he has the softest coat and he will just keep coming back for more. We think he may suit living with children 5 years and over and or without another medium or larger dog.
