Dandenong Ranges Greyhound Walks

Welcome to the Dandenong Ranges Greyhound Walks. This is a group for people who enjoy walking in nature with their hounds, but we don't discriminate, so feel free to join us with your best friend, or even without a dog.
Bear with us, when we talk greyhound. We can't help it.
In 2023 regular walks will be scheduled every second Saturday afternoon of the month. Times will depend on daylight availability and temperatures. Locations will depend on the weather, so please be patient and check this space for updates on meeting places and times.
If you feel like you need a catch up, feel free to organise a walk yourself.
When meeting for walks, try to avoid letting your dog rush towards other dogs. Best for all to keep a distance where dogs can't actually touch. Face to face 'greetings' are often interpreted as aggression by dogs and can cause anxiety, reactivity and trauma. Letting your dog rush up to other dogs, is equivalent to somebody rushing up to you and giving you a breath taking hug. Not the nicest experience. Hound interactions will change quickly when we start walking and you will soon find out, which ones of the lovely hounds your hound has chosen as their new best buddy.
Meet our dogs ready for adoption
All greyhounds adopted from GAP are de-sexed, vaccinated, microchipped, wormed and health checked.

Croc ARP
Meet Croc! He is enthusiastic and happy about everything and anything! He takes everything in his stride and will happily fit in to most homes. Croc may suit living with or without a canine pal of any size or breed and children aged 10 years and older. Sorry no apartments for his active boy.
Croc 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 no other dogs currently in our care.

Chandler ARP
Meet Chandler, no he isn't like the Chandler from friends, he is quite the oposite 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.
