Cejudo

2 years old

Cat tolerant

Small dog tolerant

Meet the lovely Cejudo. If he looks a little worried in his profile picture, well that is because he is! Cejudo is a young boy, with a lot to learn about pet life, he will require a special home that can help him continue to build his confidence and to understand that he will take some time to bond with his chosen family. Due to his timidity, we believe he will do best in a home with another dog of any size to show him the ropes and help him gain confidence. Cejudo has been to foster at a prison, through our Pet Partnership Prison Program, where he has had some more experience outside of kennels. Cejudo will require a quiet home with no children and will not suit living in a busy inner-city apartment.

Titch

9 years old

Child tolerant

Meet this adorable older lady, Titch! Titch is a lovely girl; she is so sweet and affectionate and will happily rest her head on your chest while you give her a cuddle. She can be cheeky at times and will keep her family on their toes, however with an older lady she will likely just sleep the day away after her leisurely stroll around the block. Titch has successfully completed further training in our onsite behavioural rehabilitation program (BRP) and is now ready for adoption. Titch may suit living with or without a canine brother of similar size and children aged 5 years and older.

Apartment living

Meet Desmond, the charming and quirky greyhound who's looking for a forever home. This friendly boy has a unique personality and loves to make people smile. Desmond is a bit of a gentle soul, and can be quite soft and polite at times. Desmond is looking for a home without children, but may suit living in a home with or without another polite canine companion of any size. Desmond may be happy to live in a home with full time workers, but not suitable for a home with cats. If you're looking for a loving and loyal friend who will bring joy to your life, Desmond might be the perfect fit! He can get scared at times so is looking for a more experienced dog owner. He also does not like to share his toys so needs a home that will respect this.

Shaun ARP

Shaun has been in a good paddock and is carrying a bit of excess weight at the moment. He’s rocking the dad bod!

Lara ARP

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 may suit living with or without a calm/placid canine friend of any size and older children aged in their teens. She will likely flourish best in a quiet home and neighbourhood. Sorry Lara would not suit living in an apartment.

Mr D ARP

6 years old

Child tolerant

Hi! I’m Mr D! What’s that you say!? I’m handsome? Well, there is so much more to love about me than my handsome looks but ill point out my shiny coat, awesome pointy ears and a tail that winds up like a helicopter but most importantly I am a real sweet, friendly and fun boy that is always up for an adventure. I think I might be ok to live with children 10 and over or maybe even another medium or larger play buddy!

Reindeer ARP

5 years old

Child tolerant

She may not be leading Santa’s sleigh like Rudolf but this quiet achiever is still just as important! She is a shy girl that we think will come out of her shell in a home that understands she just needs time to learn how to be a pet and patience to go at her pace. A quieter home with children 15 and over that are respectful of her boundaries maybe ok and somewhere with a nice yard that she can go and relax in. She may also benefit from a male friend that is medium or larger to help her transition into pet life. This lovely dog is not suitable for a home with cats.

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.
