For the first time, the Greyhound Adoption Program has held a Foster Care event in conjunction with the Sandown Adoption Day.
GAP and Foster Care day a winner
Adopter’s track visit a delightful surprise
Lifelong dog lover and self-confessed greyhound convert Mark Richardson wasn’t leaving any stone unturned when it came to understanding the breed after adopting former racer Hunny.
Filling the GAP – How to become a GAP Foster Carer
Entering retirement life can be very daunting for a greyhound. Many of our greyhounds that come into the program after racing need some extra help in a home environment before finding the perfect couch for them to spend the rest of their retirement.
Foster Carers Needed
Have you always wanted to have a dog but can’t commit to having one full-time… foster care could be the perfect option for you!
GAP National Volunteer Week Event
The GAP volunteers and foster carers are one in a million and to celebrate their hard work and dedication we treated to them to a day at the Melbourne Aquarium as part of National Volunteer Week.
Oh Canada! GAP greyhound moves abroad
Coursing trainer, Sean Lithgow, often re-homes his greyhounds through GAP. A few years ago, a couple who had adopted one of his greyhounds messaged him online. Their greyhound wasn’t responding to his name – Jon Snow – so they wanted to learn more about him.
