Willow ARP

Willow ARP

2 years old

We promise she has ears! Willow is a sweet little girl that can be a little unsure in new environments and will need a quiet and understanding new home to let her settle in. Once she is comfortable, we are sure a cheeky and playful little pup will emerge. Due to this, a home with a backyard and older children if any may be a better fit for her. She may even like the company of another male canine companion to help show her the world, as long as they are calm and respectful whilst she is adjusting. We think the best is yet to come with dear Willow and will make someone super pleased to have her in their life.

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.

Wally

4 years old

Meet the big goofy dog, Wally! You won't ever be heard saying "Where's Wally" as he will always be right by your side as loyal as ever. Plus, he is too big to lose sight of him! Even though Wally is big, he is quite a polite and sweet boy, who is like a cuddly teddy bear. Wal may suit living with or without a playful robust pal of any size and children aged 10 years and older. We feel as long as he gets his daily physical (walks) and mental (enrichment) needs met, he may be OK to live in an apartment! Good boy Wally!

Why adopt a greyhound?

Loving and loyal

deep bonds and showing affectionate devotion.

Quiet companions

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