Angus

4 years old

If you're looking for an enthusiastic young boy to be part of the family then look no further than Angus! Angus is an awesome outgoing and lovable goofbag that would love to be your new best friend. He absolutely loves toys and treats and would benefit from an adoptive home who will include him in all the day to day activities. He would be best suited to a home with a backyard as he loves to stretch his legs! He may suit a home with full time workers and children in their teens Angus is very special needs, he has retinal atrophy, he is looking for a special person, he has significant loss of sight now and complete vision loss over time is expected, he can learn to navigate in a stable environment and live a wonderful life with the right owners who are mindful of this. Talk to our adoption team to learn more about him.

Wolf

Wolf

3 years old

Meet Wolf! He is a young boy who can be a bit unsure of new environments and situations. Once he is comfortable, he allows his true colours to shine through and is puppyish, playful and affectionate. Wolf appears to have some issues with his vision, so he will need a special home who can manage this over the course of his life. Wolf may suit living with or without a canine pal of similar size and older children aged in their teens. Wolf has low vision, which isn't expected to get any worse. He doesn't require medication for this. He will be adopted out with a approval for a follow up appointment with an eye specialist, paid for by GAP.

Jett

This boy is ready to Jett his way into your heart and onto your couch! Sweet Jett is an incredibly friendly and outgoing boy with a puppy like nature and loves nothing more than a cuddle and play! Due to his excitement towards life Jett would be best in a home with a family who is experienced with large breed dogs! He may suit a home with another medium or large canine companion who likes to play as much as he does. He may be best suited to a home with children 10+ who can also keep up with him!

Chonk

2 years old

Don’t befooled by his name, he isn’t a “Chonky Boy” but we think the name still suits him. Mr.Chonk does however love a little treat or two so this should make training a breeze, as long as he doesn’t give you those puppy dog eyes for too many! Chonk is a confident and enthusiastic boy and we think that he may suit homes with children 10 and over and possibly another dog of any size. He may also suit living with a cat!

Aria may suit living with another male doggo of any size and maybe even a cat! She may also suit living in a home with children 10+ and over.

Buddy

7 years old

If you're looking for your new Buddy, then we've got your guy! Buddy is a nice quiet, sweet, and personable boy who loves a cuddle once he warms up to you. He does have a little timidness when it comes to smaller dogs and while he is fine living with full time workers, he would also be ok to live with a quieter, more placid poochy sibling of any size. He's looking for a child free home.

Chuck

4 years old

Chuck is a beautiful boy who can be a bit shy at times so is looking for a calm, confident owner to show him the way. He is quiet, sweet and sensible, and he tries his hardest to please. He may be happy living in a home with children aged 10 years and over, but would prefer a home with a backyard where he can stretch his legs. He may also be ok living with a cat!

Princess

Princess

8 years old

"She's beauty, she's grace, she's the Princess of the United States!" Whilst she was born here in Australia, Princess likes to think she is an international superstar. She has a confident and friendly outlook on life and loves to socialise with her fans. We think this lady will be the star in her new families eyes from the moment they meet her. Homes with children 10+ and either with or without another robust medium or larger male companion may be the best suit for this diva. Just be prepared for some servant like demands from this girl as she will love to live the rest of her life looking cute and feeling fabulous! Princess has some Arthritis, but this doesn't stop her being her happy, bubbly self!

Jeff Lebowski

3 years old

Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski is an adorable pooch, just look at that cute face! Jeff is a young boy who has lots to learn about life and even though he will be turning 4 this year, he still acts like a big puppy! He can find other breeds of dog (other than greyhounds) a little scary, but we feel with a patient owner who will help him by gradually introducing him to other breeds in the right way, he will realise that other breeds of dog are just as good as greyhounds (well almost ;) ). Jeff would like a home where all the love can be showered on him and he does not have to share with another dog. Jeff is fond of the loud noises younger children can make so a home with teenagers aged 15 years and older, we believe he will do best in a home with a backyard for him to run and play in.

Santos L. Halper

4 years old

We don't know how anyone can resist these floppy ears and stunning face. Santos is a crowd favourite here at GAP and ask anyone they would have a story about him for you. Santos is a real snuggle bug and it helps that his coat is super soft and fluffy. He has some pretty unique markings as well with one looking like a love heart! Santos has spent a bit of time here at GAP as he had to have TPLO surgery for a partially ruptured cruciate, as well as a course of Arthritis injections which will need to continue throughout his life. He is now recovered and ready for his new life! We think that he would suit living as an only dog best as he is quite independent and can still be a little unsteady on his leg so a home with NO Stairs is best for him. . We also think kids 10+ would be better for him and somewhere with a yard to hang out in.

Why adopt a greyhound?

Loving and loyal

Once a Greyhound lets you in, they become incredibly loyal, forming 
deep bonds and showing affectionate devotion.

Quiet companions

Greyhounds are quiet and reserved, making them excellent neighbors 
in shared living spaces.

Independent thinkers

Greyhounds are obedient yet independent, combining problem-solving skills with a self-assured nature.
