Little Man

4 years old

Child tolerant

Little Man is a sweet, affectionate greyhound with a charmingly quirky personality and a youthful, puppyish outlook on life. He loves spending time with his people and has a gentle, loving nature that makes him a joy to be around. While he can be playful and a little goofy at times, his affectionate side shines through in everything he does. Little Man would suit a home with children aged 10 years and over, but is not suitable for homes with elderly family members due to his enthusiasm. Having completed behavioural rehabilitation, he must not live with small dogs or cats, but could happily share his home with a medium to large canine companion or be the centre of attention as an only dog. Littleman has a mild heart murmur commonly seen in Greyhounds that currently requires no treatment. We would advise a routine check with your vet annually. He also would benefit from wearing boots when out walking due to soft paws. If you're looking for a loving, entertaining friend with plenty of character, Little Man is ready to steal your heart.

Brasi

4 years old

Child tolerant

Brasi is a bold and boisterous four-year-old boy who approaches life with boundless enthusiasm and a zest that is truly infectious. This confident, outgoing extrovert loves nothing more than launching into a set of zoomies, and his excitable, impulsive nature means there is never a dull moment when he is around. Brasi is a treat and toy enthusiast, and his friendly, energetic personality makes him an absolute joy to be around for those who can match his lively spirit. Brasi would thrive in an active home with a confident owner who can provide calm, consistent guidance — particularly on lead, where he can be a little erratic when excited. He may suit life as an only dog or alongside a similarly-sized canine companion and could potentially share his home with children aged 10 and older. One thing is non-negotiable though: Brasi needs a secure backyard where he can stretch those long legs, tear around to his heart’s content, and truly be himself.

Marlowe

4 years old

Child tolerant

Meet Marlowe, a confident and outgoing greyhound with a big personality and an even bigger love of treats! This handsome boy thrives on human interaction, often seeking eye contact to connect with his people and let you know he's ready for his next adventure. Marlowe would love an active home where he can be included in daily activities and enjoy plenty of enrichment and companionship. Best suited to a family with children aged 10+ or adults, he is not appropriate for apartment living or homes with elderly residents due to his enthusiasm and energy. Marlowe would be happiest as either an only dog soaking up all the attention or living with a compatible medium to large canine companion. If you're looking for a loyal, engaging, and confident best friend, Marlowe could be the perfect match. Marlow has an auto immune disease, called "Pannus". This affects his eyes, and is controlled with daily eye drops, which he is such a good boy to get!

Targan

5 years old

Child tolerant

If you're looking for a dog who greets every day with enthusiasm and a wagging tail, then Targan could be your perfect match! This handsome 5-year-old black greyhound is a very large boy with an even bigger personality. Targan has some osteoarthritis, which doesn't currently cause him discomfort. It will be advisable to monitor this over the years with regular vet checks and arthritic management. Targan is incredibly social and loves meeting new people. Friendly, outgoing and confident, he never misses an opportunity to say hello and soak up some attention. One of his favourite things is enjoying a pat while out on a walk, happily making friends wherever he goes. Affectionate and playful, Targan has a puppy-like zest for life that makes him a joy to be around. He loves treats, enjoys human company and is always keen to be involved in whatever is happening. His excitement can sometimes get the better of him, and he may jump up to greet people or become a little boisterous when he's happy. While he does settle down nicely, he's an active and enthusiastic boy who will thrive with owners who appreciate his energetic nature. Targan can be strong on the lead, particularly when excited, so he'll need confident handlers who can comfortably manage a large dog. For this reason, he is not suited to frail owners. This extroverted lad would suit an active home with a secure backyard where he can stretch his legs and enjoy family life. Due to his size and exuberance, Targan is best suited to a home with children aged 15 years and over. If you're after a fun, affectionate greyhound who will fill your days with happiness, adventures and plenty of personality, Targan is ready to find his forever family.

Ginny

5 years old

Child tolerant

Ginny is a stunning black greyhound with the sleekest, shiniest coat and a gentle soul to match. Recently, he spent a month in our Prison Pet Partnership Program, where he worked hard learning valuable pet life skills to help prepare him for life in a loving forever home. Naturally an introvert, Ginny can be anxious and cautious in new situations, but he always does his best to be brave and takes comfort from patient, understanding people. Once Ginny trusts you, his true personality shines through. He becomes a happy, affectionate boy who loves spending time with his people and enjoys plenty of pats and attention. During foster care, we discovered that Ginny much prefers the outdoors to indoor living, so a secure backyard is a must for this zoomie-loving boy. Ginny is likely to thrive with an experienced greyhound owner and a family with teenage children who can appreciate his gentle nature and give him the time and space he needs to blossom.

Cecil

Child tolerant

Cecil is a happy, boofy boy who approaches life with boundless enthusiasm and a wagging tail. Outgoing, affectionate and always up for a cuddle, he loves being around his people and will happily soak up as many scratches as you're willing to give. Cecil's fun-loving personality shines through in everything he does, and his goofy charm makes him a joy to have around. Like many big-hearted dogs, he can be a little boisterous and impulsive at times, but it's all part of his lovable character. Cecil is looking for a home with adults or teens aged 15+ who can help him continue polishing his manners and provide consistent guidance as he learns. He would be most suited as an only dog, where he can be the centre of attention, or with a medium to large canine companion who is a good match for his size and energy. With patience, structure and plenty of affection, Cecil will reward his new family with endless love, laughs and loyal companionship.

Tiger

6 years old

No items found.
Oh Sweet Tiger, you are such a gentle soul that wants nothing more than a patient home and lifetime supply of twiggy sticks and ear rubs. Tiger has come a long way since starting his GAP journey and recently came back from foster care where he learnt a lot of new things and found some confidence in his time. Tiger has come back with a newfound confidence, and we are so thrilled how far he has come, whilst he still has times where he is unsure, he tries his very best. We think Tiger may suit living in a home with or without another dog medium or larger and children 15 and over. He will do best in a home with a backyard in a nice quiet area as loud noises and lots of traffic are still very scary for him. Tiger may suit living with full time workers. Tiger has anxiety and is on medication to help with this.

Sonny ARP

3 years old

Child tolerant

Sonny is a most dashing and spirited gentleman of the greyhound world. Handsome, charming, and impossible to ignore, Sonny carries himself with the confidence of a true gentleman while still embracing a delightfully puppyish enthusiasm for life. Friendly and outgoing, he seeks connection with eager eye contact and a desire to please that is most endearing. Known to be quite the conversationalist, Sonny enjoys "speaking his mind" with cheerful chatter, all while his signature waggy "helicopter" tail ensures no entrance goes unnoticed.

With his lively and excitable nature, Sonny would be best suited to a home that can indulge his active spirit and zest for play. His enthusiasm can make him a little erratic on the lead at times, but with guidance and patience, he will shine as the perfect companion. Sonny may suit living with or without a canine friend of similar size and would do well with children aged 10 years and older. A home with a backyard would suit him splendidly, offering the space he needs to frolic and burn off his boundless energy.

Sonny 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 no other dogs currently in our care.

Child tolerant

Prefer Companion

Meet Frank, a confident and outgoing greyhound who knows exactly how to charm his way into your heart. This friendly boy loves making eye contact, as if he’s checking in with you to say, “Did you see how awesome I am just then?” Frank brings a big personality wherever he goes, paired with a genuine affection for people and a zest for life. He’s completed behavioural rehabilitation training focused on learning appropriate behaviour around other dogs, and he’s made great progress—though he’ll still benefit from a home willing to continue guiding him, especially when it comes to polishing up his manners.

He needs a medium-to-large canine friend, as he loves companionship, but he isn’t suitable for homes with small dogs or cats. Due to his energy and continued learning, he’s not the right fit for elderly households. With a bit of structure, patience, and plenty of affection, Frank will reward his family with loyalty, fun, and that unmistakable greyhound grin that makes every day brighter.

Ben ARP

2 years old

Child tolerant

Small dog tolerant

Ben is a super sweet, highly intelligent, and gentle soul who is looking for a quiet, patient home where he can truly come out of his shell. He is a shy and anxious boy who is cautious around new people and slow to bond, but for the right person, the reward is immeasurable — once he trusts you, he is deeply affectionate, loving, and playful. His foster carer describes him nuzzling in for cuddles, licking hands, and snuggling close. He does best with a calm, consistent presence and will need an owner (or owners) who are gentle and willing to give him the time he needs to feel safe. He would likely suit a quiet home with older, teenage children, and is happy to live with a calm, polite dog of any size, having bonded beautifully with his foster carer’s small older dog. Once Ben feels secure, his personality truly blossoms. He loves squeaky toys, adores a big plush toy to cuddle up with, and will happily do zoomies around the backyard or chase a toy when he’s comfortable in your company. He is a fast learner — picking up toilet boundaries quickly with gentle guidance — and he settled well with a dedicated safe space of his own, like a large pen, which he never soiled and always retreated to happily. He sleeps through the night and will let you know when he needs to go outside. He is a strong dog on the lead, so a physically confident walker is ideal. He is not a fussy eater but eats best when he feels relaxed and safe. Ben is a truly special dog, and the right patient, gentle home will be so lucky to have him.

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