Caper

Caper

6 Years Old

Caper
Watch video
Caper is a quiet, sensible boy with a big heart and an even bigger presence — a true gentle giant. He’s friendly, personable and affectionate, often leaning into his handler for comfort and connection. Easy to handle and good on lead, Caper is a lovely companion both out on walks and at home. In foster care, Caper quickly showed just how special he is. He absolutely loves human company and will happily follow you around the house just to be near you and see what you’re up to. He enjoys his daily zoomies, then settles into his favourite position — roaching on his bed without a care in the world. When it’s time to relax, he’s all about pats and cuddles, especially a good neck scratch, which he adores. Caper is best suited to an adult-only home with no children. Caper would thrive either as an only dog or with medium to large canine companions. Caper has osteoarthritis which is inflammation of the cartilage and bone joints.

Chandler

3 years old

Meet Chandler, no he isn't like the Chandler from Friends, he is quite the opposite really. He is an introvert and enjoys the quiet life. He finds new people and new environments a bit scary and takes a hot minute to warm up to people, then he becomes friendly and personable. Chandler may suit living with or without a canine friend of any size or breed and children aged 10 years and older, he may find the smallest children too scary. A quiet home will be best for this Chandler.

Brae

4 years old

Brae is a pretty little girl with a quiet and sweet nature. She’s personable and loves her pats, leaning into affection once she feels safe. Brae can be a little stress at times and is submissive, so she’s looking for a calm, understanding home where she can relax and build her confidence. She would thrive as an only dog but may be suitable to live with medium or large dogs, she also may be suitable to live with kids 10+. Because Brae is a little anxiou at times, she would suit a quiet neighbourhood.

Jetters

4 years old

Fasten your seatbelts and get ready for lift‑off—Jetters is here to zoom into your heart! This outgoing, affectionate, and wonderfully puppyish greyhound is powered by enthusiasm and fueled by fun. Whether he’s showing off his legendary zoomies or leaning in for cuddles, Jetters approaches life like a true Go Jetters hero: all in, full speed, and with a big smile. He loves human company and would thrive in a home with adults or kids aged 10+, where his playful spirit and friendly nature can really shine. Jetters is looking for his perfect landing zone—a house with a secure yard (no apartments, please) where he can stretch those long legs and blast off into playtime. He can be an only dog soaking up all the attention, or happily share the mission with a well‑matched canine co‑pilot. Cats aren’t part of his program, but adventure, affection, and fun definitely are. If you’re ready to join him on a globe‑trotting (or backyard‑zooming) adventure, Jetters is standing by and ready to go—Go, Jetters, go!

Frank

6 years old

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. Frank is best suited to a home with adults or kids aged 10+, where his enthusiasm and size will be well matched. He would thrive as the only dog or alongside a medium-to-large canine companion, 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.

Periwinkle

5 years old

Periwinkle is a striking male greyhound with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Friendly, outgoing, and full of quiet confidence, he quickly wins people over with his affectionate nature and calm, easy-going presence. Periwinkle 19981 has had wrist bone fracture prior to GAP entry. He bears weight on this limb and the area is stable, he does have a small amount of arthritis due to this injury. He enjoys human company and is happiest when he can be close to his people, whether that’s relaxing by your side or heading out for a leisurely walk. Periwinkle is well-mannered and easy to handle, making him a wonderful companion for adults or a family with children aged 10 and over who can respect his space and gentle nature. Having successfully completed behavioural rehabilitation training, Periwinkle is ready for a fresh start in a home that understands his needs. He would do best as an only dog, or potentially with a medium to large dog of similar temperament, but he cannot live with small dogs or cats. Periwinkle is not suited to a home with elderly owners, as he thrives in a steady, confident environment. With the right match, he will reward his new family with loyalty, affection, and companionship every day.

Terry Jefferds

3 years old

Meet Terry Jefferds—a big-hearted greyhound with the soul of a squad sergeant and the enthusiasm of a kid in a candy store. Terry loves love, and he makes that very clear, locking eyes with you like you’re the most important person in the room before leaning in for affection. Friendly, personable, and delightfully puppyish, he’s full of quirky charm and playful curiosity. Thanks to his behavioural rehabilitation training—focused on helping him learn appropriate behaviour around other dogs—Terry has gained great skills and continues to thrive with guidance, structure, and positive connection. Terry is looking for a home where his big personality can shine—either with adults or a family with kids aged 10+. He’s best suited as the only dog or with a medium-to-large canine companion who matches his energy, but he isn’t suitable for homes with small dogs or cats. Because of his size and zest for life, he’s also not the right fit for elderly households. Terry has had a previous injury to his right hock, but it hasn't stopped him from loving life. He may need some arthritis care later in his lifetime because of this. Give Terry the leadership, love, and routine he craves, and he’ll repay you with unwavering loyalty, daily laughs, and the kind of joy that only a dog who truly loves his people can bring.

Riptide

3 years old

There's this movie that we think you'll like, this dog decides to quit his job and heads to GAP City! Awooooo, woooo, wooo! Now that we got you singing his song, Riptide would like you to know more about him. This handsome man is after a home without too much on his wish list. He is a simple guy, happy to live on his own or with another medium or larger companion and may even be ok with full time workers. My foster Dad said I was a delightful house guest, and he was sad to see me go. Riptide has done some extra work here at GAP and in foster care to brush up on skills before he hits the big time and he cannot wait to start his next chapter. He does have a chronic toe injury which hasn't caused him current lameness. Riptide is waiting for his forever home with you.

Because of Leonardos sweet and quiet personality he may suit living with any size dogs, and he may be suitable to live with older children aged 15+.

Ava

4 years old

Ava is a very pretty and utterly sweet four-year-old girl with a puppyish charm and an affectionate, personable nature that is simply irresistible. Friendly and full of personality, Ava has a delightful little quirk that never fails to raise a smile — when excitement strikes, such as when walkies time rolls around, she throws herself into the most adorable spins on the spot, as if her joy is simply too big to contain. It is the kind of endearing behaviour that makes her completely impossible not to love. Ava would make a wonderful companion for the right home, bringing sweetness, affection, and plenty of personality wherever she goes. She may suit life as an only dog or could share her home with a similarly sized canine friend and could potentially live with children aged 10 years old and older. If you are looking for a beautiful, loving girl with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Ava might just be the one who spins her way straight into yours. Ava has successfully completed some further training in our onsite behavioural rehabilitation program and is now available for adoption!
