Lamington

4 years old

Child tolerant

Meet Lamington, she is just as sweet as the food she is named after. Lamington is a happy girl who loves everyone and anyone, the more the merrier she thinks! Not only does Lamington love people, but she also loves tasty treats, which is excellent as she should be easily trained due to her food motivation. Lamington may suit living with or without a canine brother of similar size and children aged 10 years and older. Lamington requires some special care for her allergies, and this has been helped through allergy friendly dietary options. She may do best in a home with a backyard for her daily antics. Lamington has successfully completed extra training in our onsite behavioural rehabilitation program and is now ready for adoption!

Lara

4 years old

Small dog tolerant

Little miss Lara is a little shy with new people and dogs, but with time and experience she may gain her confidence. She is fairly quiet and an introvert, Lara would likely not enjoy going to busy places like markets or busy cafes. Lara will be best in an adult only home that can respect her nature and let her blossom. We think she would also flourish best in a quiet home and neighbourhood. Sorry Lara would not suit living in an apartment.

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.
