Gus is a super handsome, friendly and affectionate dude who has a lot of love to give! He has been affectionately referred to as a "boof head" as he loves to be in your business! He is on the smaller side for a male but he makes up for it in personality! Gus may suit living in a home with or without another medium or large canine companion and children aged 10 years and over. Gus may even suit living in a home with full time workers!

This dog is part of our Assisted Rehoming Program (ARP). ARP dogs are kept with their racing owners until they find an adoptive home, at which point they are brought back into GAP.

Hank Hill

6 years old

Meet Hank Hill — a handsome, confident greyhound with a heart as solid as a well-built propane grill. True to his namesake, Hank is steady, reliable, and full of quiet charm, but don’t let that calm demeanor fool you — when it’s time for zoomies, this boy will tell you hwhat! Hank loves a good burst of speed followed by leaning in for affection, and he thrives on companionship with his people. He’s completed behavioural rehabilitation training and has come out the other side with structure, manners, and a strong desire to please. Like any good Texan gentleman, he appreciates routine, respect, and a comfortable place to relax at the end of the day. Hank would do best in a home with kids aged 10+ or adults who understand his boundaries and can match his confident nature. He prefers to be the only dog or live with a medium-to-large canine companion who respects his space — smaller animals, including cats and small dogs, aren’t his “kind of alley.” He is not suited to living with elderly individuals, as his playful bursts and size can be a bit much. If you're looking for a loyal companion who brings equal parts dignity and goofball energy — a dog who’ll stand by you like propane and propane accessories — Hank Hill might just be your guy.

Peregrine

3 years old

Meet Peregrine — a high‑flying adventurer ready to soar straight into your heart. True to his namesake, this striking male Greyhound is bold, outgoing and full of life, with a confident stride and a zest for adventure that makes every day feel like a new journey. Peregrine is an affectionate, people‑loving boy who thrives on companionship and attention, often expressing his joy with his delightfully boofy enthusiasm. He’s completed behavioural rehabilitation training and has come a long way, but like any spirited flyer, he still needs a handler willing to guide him as he continues polishing his manners. Peregrine will do best in a home with adults or families with children aged 10+, where his exuberant personality can be appreciated and safely managed — he’s not suited to homes with elderly individuals. He must be the only dog, or could live with a calm, medium‑to‑large canine companion, but no small dogs or cats. A secure backyard is essential for this energetic boy; apartment living isn’t for him. With the right home, Peregrine will truly take flight, rewarding his people with loyalty, affection, and a whole lot of joyful, boofy charm. Peregrine has a heart murmur . The murmur is not causing any clinical signs or issues at present. The majority of greyhounds with a heart murmur will live a normal healthy life, however it could develop into other heart issues.

Soleus

6 years old

This lovely boy is incredibly personable and enjoys being part of the action. Whether he’s leaning softly into your side for affection or trotting happily beside you on a walk, Soleus thrives on connection. He walks beautifully on lead, making outings a pleasure, and he’ll reward you with his calm presence and easy-going charm. Soleus has a playful side too! He enjoys toys and absolutely loves his treats, making him a delight to engage with and easy to motivate during training or enrichment time. After a little play or a stroll, he’s more than happy to relax by your side—ideally close enough for a cuddle or a gentle lean. He could suit a variety of homes and may be just as happy living as a solo companion or sharing his space with another medium- to large-sized dog. Soleus is also well-suited to families with children aged 5 and up who can appreciate his gentle and affectionate nature. Soleus has completed some extra behavioural rehabilitation training and is now ready for adoption!

Peppercorn

6 years old

Peppercorn is a charming male greyhound with a gentle soul and an easygoing nature. Laidback, social, and wonderfully personable, he enjoys spending time with his people and happily soaks up affection. Peppercorn has successfully completed behavioural rehabilitation training and has shown himself to be a thoughtful, responsive companion who thrives in a calm, consistent home environment. Peppercorn would be best suited to a home with children aged 5+ or an adult-only household. He is not suitable to live with small dogs or cats, and would do best as an only dog or with a medium to large canine companion. A home without elderly residents is recommended due to his size and occasional enthusiasm. In the right match, Peppercorn will reward his family with loyalty, warmth, and plenty of relaxed greyhound companionship.

Panama

4 years old

Meet Panama — a handsome, affectionate greyhound with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This boofy, enthusiastic boy is always ready for fun, whether it’s a playful burst around the yard or leaning right into you for his favourite thing in the world: back scratches. Panama is full of life and loves being part of the action, bringing a joyful, goofy energy wherever he goes. He’s also completed behavioural rehabilitation training, giving him a solid foundation and helping him channel all that enthusiasm into being a loving, well-mannered companion who thrives on attention and connection. Panama would suit a home with kids aged 10+ or adults who can match his active nature and appreciate his affectionate, people-oriented style. He’s happiest either as the only dog or with a medium-to-large canine companion who can keep up with his playful spirit. Due to his history, Panama is not suitable for homes with small dogs or cats, and he isn’t suited to living with elderly individuals. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, loyal greyhound who will keep you smiling and stick close by your side (literally), Panama is ready to lean his way straight into your heart. Panama has a hygroma. A hygroma is a collection of fluid which often occurs over bony prominences (such as the elbow) on dogs, especially with repeated exposure to hard surfaces (eg lying on concrete). Hygromas are generally not harmful to a dog's wellbeing and non-painful, unless they become very distended with fluid or burst through the skin surface.

He is friendly, outgoing and personable and will show everyone that Greyhounds are anything but grey!

Corgan

4 years old

Corgan is a bold, charismatic boy with serious frontman energy—outgoing, affectionate, and always ready to put on a show. Like his namesake, he’s got presence: expressive, engaging, and happiest when he’s in the middle of the action. He adores people, soaking up pats and attention, and his playful spirit shines in his love of zoomies and games. Corgan’s enthusiasm can be a bit larger-than-life, so he’ll do best with adults or families with children aged 10+ who can appreciate his exuberance and provide steady, consistent guidance. Corgan has had previous hock joint injuries but has minimal changes at this time. He may be at risk of developing arthritis in the future.  Corgan would thrive as the only dog where he can truly shine, or with a robust, medium-to-large canine companion who enjoys a lively play style. He’s not suited to a home with cats. This energetic boy is looking for a home that will embrace his zest for life while helping him learn to settle and relax after the encore. In return, Corgan will deliver endless entertainment, loyal companionship, and plenty of heart—your very own rockstar best mate.

Sushi

4 years old

Sushi is a quiet, sweet female greyhound with a gentle soul and a heart full of affection. She may be soft and reserved at first, but once she’s comfortable you’ll notice her lovely habit of seeking eye contact, as if checking in to make sure you’re sharing the moment together. Like a perfectly crafted sushi roll, Sushi is calm and delicate on the outside, with bursts of joyful energy inside—especially when zoomies strike and she suddenly whizzes around with playful delight. Sushi would be best suited to a home with children aged 10+ or with adults who appreciate her thoughtful, affectionate nature. She can live happily as an only dog or with a friendly canine companion, but she’ll need a cat‑free home. Due to her needs and energy, Sushi is not suitable for apartment living or for elderly households. If you’re looking for a gentle companion with playful flashes of fun and a wonderfully attentive gaze, Sushi could be the perfect match.

Fox

6 years old

Meet Fox, a beautiful female greyhound with a gentle soul and a naturally charming presence. Sweet, pretty, and personable, Fox enjoys being around her people and shows her affection in quiet, thoughtful ways. She is touch‑sensitive around her neck, so she’s looking for a home with respectful, dog‑savvy humans who will read her cues and let trust grow at her pace. Fox would thrive with adults or teenagers aged 15 and up who can provide calm handling and consistency. Fox is best suited to a home as an only dog or with a medium to large canine companion who matches her easygoing style. She is not suited to apartments or homes with elderly residents, as she does best with a bit more space and confident handlers. She has had a recent dental here at GAP, but will benefit with extra dental care in the home. With the right environment, Fox will blossom into a loyal, loving companion who brings grace and warmth to everyday life.
