Scout

5 years old

Scout is a handsome blue boy with a quiet, gentle nature. He’s sweet and a little introverted, happy to take things at his own pace. He can be a little submissive at times but is also independent. One of his cutest quirks is his adorable helicopter tail wags. Scout may suit a home on his own or with small, medium or large dogs, and could be suitable to live with children aged 5+. He may also be suited to apartment living or an elderly owner. Scout has a tiny chip of bone in his left hock that requires no treatment right now and doesn't stop him from moving freely. He will benefit having some arthritic supplements over his lifetime in the home.

Bella

4 years old

Bella is a pretty girl with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Friendly, outgoing, and confident, she loves meeting new people and has a wonderfully personable nature that makes her easy to adore. Bella approaches life with enthusiasm and isn’t shy about showing it—especially if treats are involved! She has a fun, quirky side that adds plenty of smiles to everyday life, and her happy, cheerful energy makes her a joy to have around. Along with her playful spirit, Bella is also affectionate and enjoys spending quality time with her people. Bella may suit a home with full-time workers, as she’s content to relax during the day once her needs are met. She may also be well suited to a family with children aged 10 years and over. If you’re looking for a confident, treat-loving greyhound with a spark of fun and lots of love to give, Bella could be the perfect match. Bella has had a previous hock injury and is now stable, she will benefit from having join supplements in her future.

Salma

4 years old

Salma is a delightful four-year-old girl who has blossomed into a confident, happy girl since beginning her journey through GAP (she has been in the program for around 200 days). After thriving in foster care home alongside her best greyhound buddy, Spyro, Salma has shown just how far she’s come—embracing life with enthusiasm and charm. Sweet, friendly, and wonderfully personable, she adores human connection, often seeking out eye contact and affection, and has a playful, puppyish spirit that’s impossible to resist. Whether she’s zooming around with excitement, “boot scooting” in sheer joy, or squeaking her favourite soft and rubber toys, Salma brings fun and warmth wherever she goes. In her day-to-day life, Salma is both practical and adaptable—she’s crate trained, toilet trained, and confidently navigates stairs and car trips, happily jumping in and out with ease. While she may start walks with a burst of excitement, she soon settles into a lovely rhythm on the lead. Salma would flourish in a home with a backyard and a canine companion of similar size—ideally her beloved Spyro, as their bond is truly special. With her affectionate nature and playful energy, she would be best suited to a home with teenage children who can match her lively spirit while giving her the love and companionship she deserves. Salma has completed some extra training in our onsite Behavioural Rehabilitation Program (BRP) and is now ready for adoption!

Riff

5 years old

Riff is a handsome blue boy with a quiet, calm and gentle nature that is as striking as his good looks. Friendly, personable and genuinely affectionate, this sensible and polite boy has a wonderfully easy, undemanding way about him that makes him a true gentleman in every sense of the word. Well-behaved on the lead and happy to take life at a relaxed pace, Riff is the kind of dog who brings a sense of calm and warmth to any environment he finds himself in. Riff is a beautifully adaptable boy who could suit a wonderfully wide range of homes and lifestyles. He may be happy as an only dog or could enjoy the company of a canine companion of any size, and his gentle, sensible temperament means he could potentially share his home with children aged 10 years and older. His calm and easy-going nature also makes him a particularly thoughtful match for elderly owners or those in an apartment setting — because sometimes the most perfect companion is simply one who is quietly, contentedly there. He may also be happy living with cats. Riff has a low grade heart murmur, commonly seen in greyhounds. It is not causing him any issues or clinical signs at present and most greyhounds live a happy normal life with these low grades. It would be best to keep up regular health checks with your vet.

Wriggles

4 years old

Meet Wriggles — a gentle, laidback greyhound who has mastered the art of taking life easy. This friendly boy is happiest when he’s lounging nearby, soaking up the calm, and occasionally wandering over to lean affectionately into his favourite people. Wriggles has a relaxed, easygoing nature and a soft, sweet presence that makes him a joy to be around. Having completed behavioural rehabilitation training, he’s developed into a well-mannered companion who thrives in a peaceful, predictable environment where he can simply be himself (preferably somewhere comfy). Wriggles would suit a home with kids aged 5+ or adults who appreciate his quiet, “lazy Sunday” approach to life. He can happily live as an only dog or with a medium-to-large canine companion who shares his calm energy, but he isn’t suitable for homes with small dogs or cats. Due to his size and tendency to lean in close for affection, he’s not suited to living with elderly individuals. If you’re looking for a friendly, low-key companion who will happily keep you company and remind you to slow down and enjoy the simple things, Wriggles might just be your perfect match.

Elsie

3 years old

Elsie is a petite greyhound with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This affectionate, bouncy girl lives for fun—whether she’s bursting into joyful zoomies in the yard or gently nudging you for her favourite treats. Her quirky charm and enthusiastic spirit make her impossible not to love, and she thrives on companionship and routine. Elsie is best suited to a home with children aged 10+ or adults, where her lively nature and playful energy can truly shine. Elsie is looking for a home with space to stretch her legs, so no apartments please—she’ll be happiest with a secure yard where she can zoom to her heart’s content. She would do well as an only dog so she can soak up all the attention, or alongside a compatible medium to large dog. She is not cat-friendly and must go to a cat-free home. Due to her energetic nature, she isn’t suited to homes with elderly residents. She has had a previous injury to her right hock, and it is stable. She will benefit from some supplements for joints in her future. If you’re after a sweet, spirited companion who will keep you smiling every day, Elsie might just be your perfect match.
