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.

Micky ARP
Micky is a handsome and affectionate greyhound with a calm and gentle nature. This sweet boy loves spending time with his people, seeking eye contact and wanting to please. While he can be relaxed and quiet, Micky does have a puppyish side and likes to stretch his legs with zoomies. He also loves treats and has shown interest in bird watching and believes that backyard zoomies are more fun with a bird nearby. He is looking for a home with a secure backyard. He would suit being an only dog or he may be suitable to live with medium or large canine companions. Micky may also be suitable to live with children aged 5 and over.
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. 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 them. As such, you will not be able to meet any other dogs, as you otherwise would be able to.

Michigan ARP
Michigan is a stunning girl that can be a little shy and puppyish to start but soon comes out of her shell and loves to lean on you for pats. She has beautiful eyes and will look up at you with so much love, you just won’t be able to resist her! We think she may suit a home with children that are savvy around large breeds and over 10 years, she may also suit living with another male companion of any size.

Uganda ARP
Are you looking for a quiet and sweet girl? Uganda might be the one for you! She can be a little shy when she first meets you but doesn’t take long to warm up. She is quiet and really wants to please her owners. She may suit living with children in their teens but would prefer to find a home with a canine companion of any size.

Pedro ARP
Pedro is a friendly, outgoing and confident greyhound with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Affectionate and personable, he loves spending time with his people and is always happy to make new friends. One of Pedro’s favourite things in the world is a good butt scratch, and he'll happily lean in for more when he finds the perfect spot! With his easy-going nature, Pedro may suit a home either as an only dog or with a medium to large canine companion. He could also thrive in a family with respectful children aged 10 years and over who are keen to share plenty of love, attention and cuddles with this charming boy.

King ARP
Kingis a handsome, friendly and incredibly personable greyhound whose goofy, larger-than-life personality is guaranteed to keep his family smiling. This tall, affectionate boy loves being part of the action and has a playful, puppyish side that shines through in his hilarious zoomies and quirky antics. While King can be a little anxious at times, he always tries his best and gains confidence with patient support from the people he loves. Full of character, charm and plenty of goofy moments, King may suit a home with or without a medium or large canine companion and could do well with respectful children aged 10 years and over who will appreciate his fun-loving spirit and kind heart.

Bruno ARP
Bruno is a handsome greyhound with a gentle soul and a heart full of affection. Quiet, polite, and incredibly sweet, he enjoys spending time with his people and wins friends wherever he goes with his calm, personable nature. Bruno is confident in many situations, but like many greyhounds, he can occasionally be a little unsure and looks to his trusted humans for reassurance and support.
Friendly and easy-going, Bruno may happily settle into a home as an only dog where he can soak up all the attention, or he may enjoy living alongside another dog of any size. His kind and gentle temperament also makes him a lovely companion for families with children aged 5 years and older. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate friend with plenty of charm, Bruno could be the perfect match.
