Watch video
Meet Elzar – named after the larger-than-life celebrity chef from Futurama – and just like his namesake, he brings plenty of flair, energy and charisma wherever he goes! This handsome black greyhound is a fun, affectionate and wonderfully quirky boy who approaches life with an infectious enthusiasm. Puppyish at heart and a true extrovert, Elzar loves being involved in everything his people are doing and is always ready to entertain with a burst of zoomies. If you're looking for a dog with personality, confidence and a whole lot of love to give, Elzar is ready to say, "Bam!" and brighten your day. Elzar has an auto immune disease, called "Pannus.". It is controlled with daily eye drops. Elzar also has an old fracture with screw present. They are stable and he is ready for his new home! Elzar is seeking an active home with a secure backyard where he can enjoy regular playtime and stretch his long legs. He would suit a family with children aged 10 years and over, or active adults who can keep up with his adventurous spirit. Elzar could happily be your one-and-only dog, or share his home with a medium to large canine companion. Due to his playful enthusiasm, he is not suited to homes with elderly or frail people or dogs, and apartment living is not the right fit for this energetic boy. Give Elzar the space, activity and companionship he craves, and he'll reward you with endless affection, laughter and plenty of his signature "Bam!" moments.

Lad

4 years old

Lad is a gentle soul with a loving heart. This quiet, calm greyhound enjoys a relaxed lifestyle and is happiest spending time with his people, soaking up affection and enjoying the comfort of a peaceful home. Although Lad is blind, he navigates life with quiet determination and, with patience and support, forms strong bonds with those who earn his trust. His sweet nature and easy-going temperament make him a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal and affectionate friend. Lad is seeking a special home with adults or children aged 10 years and over who can provide the understanding and consistency he needs. He could happily live as an only dog or with a compatible canine companion and may also suit a home with a cat. Because of his blindness, Lad will benefit from a secure environment and owners committed to helping him build confidence through routine and guidance. He is not suited to apartment living and would thrive in a home where he has space to relax and feel secure. If you're looking for a kind-hearted greyhound who will reward your care with unwavering devotion, Lad is ready to find his forever family. Lad has PRA which affects his eyes. He has very limited vision and will eventually go completely blind. His strong sense of smell and hearing help him with his day-to-day life, and he's such a bright friendly boy. Lad also has diabetes, which is controlled with daily medication.
