Aleesha is no stranger to the greyhound breed, as her father trained and raced them when she was a child, so when she discovered the GAP program as an adult, she knew she needed to look into adopting her very own long-legged friend.

Dear all, for your safety and ours, the GAP Seymour facility will be closed to the public until the threat of Covid-19 abates.

During these trying times something we could all do with more light and cheerful stories, and we can count on greyhounds to fill the void easily. Every greyhound owner has a story, but how many have a sports fan?

There wasn’t a party this year, or a community day with a cast of thousands, but the 24th anniversary of the founding of Victoria’s Greyhound Adoption Program was still a significant milestone for the welfare of former racing greyhounds.

GAP Seymour will be closed this again weekend (March 14-15) as a precautionary measure around the current situation with canine gastroenteritis.
