King ARP
This is King, an outgoing greyhound with a quirky personality. This affectionate boy's enthusiastic about life, always up for an adventure, and not afraid to show his enthusiastic side. King's a great fit for an active household where he can get plenty of attention and exercise. King may suit households with kids 10+ or adults who can keep up with his playful energy – no small dogs, cats, or old/frail people please! A backyard to stretch his legs and a robust dog companion (medium to large) may be best suitedif he's not the only dog. If you're looking for a fun-loving, loyal companion who's always up for a laugh, King's your guy!
This dog 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 not other dogs currently in our care.

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! He’s a friendly and loving chap and if you give him some treats, he will be your best friend for life. Shaun would likely be ok with kids 10 or older, and may be fine with full time workers.

Lara ARP
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
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
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.
