Polar

4 years old

Calm, gentle and wonderfully easy-going, Polar is a handsome 4-year-old white greyhound with a heart as big as his appetite. This gorgeous boy is the definition of laidback, preferring a relaxed lifestyle filled with comfortable beds, tasty treats and the company of his favourite people. Quiet and polite, Polar takes life at his own pace and brings a peaceful presence wherever he goes. While Independent at times, Polar enjoys building meaningful connections and has a lovely habit of seeking eye contact with those he trusts. Quietly affectionate rather than demanding of attention, he's the kind of companion who is happiest simply sharing space with his family. Friendly and personable, Polar has a sweet, gentle nature that makes him a pleasure to be around. Polar is also quite the foodie and never misses an opportunity to enjoy a meal or a well-earned snack. Combined with his wonderfully relaxed outlook on life, this has resulted in him becoming a delightfully chunky boy who is more than happy to leave the zoomies to the youngsters and focus on perfecting the art of lounging instead. If there were an Olympic event for napping, Polar would be a strong contender! With his calm temperament and low-key lifestyle, Polar may be well suited to apartment living, provided he has his daily walks and plenty of cosy spots to stretch out and relax. Suitable for a home with children aged 5 years and older, Polar is searching for a family who will appreciate his gentle nature, quiet affection and talent for being the perfect couch companion. Polar has an old hock fracture with a screw present. We have done xrays to confirm it is stable, and he isn't in pain or lame.

She loves stretching her long legs during a good zoomie session and is always happy to lean in for a butt scratch.

While she loves affection on her own terms, she can also be touch-sensitive at times and appreciates having her boundaries respected. She's a wonderful mix of loving companion and independent spirit. Lynette has an auto immune disease of the eyes called "Pannus." this is controlled with daily eye drops. She also has a low-grade heart murmur, which doesnt affect her day-to-day life, and doesn't require medication. Lynette would be best suited to a home with adults or children aged 10 years and over who can understand her cues and give her space when needed.

Lynette could thrive as an only dog, soaking up all the attention for herself, or she may enjoy sharing her home with a compatible canine friend. She may also be able to live with a cat, pending appropriate introductions. If you're looking for a gentle, quirky Greyhound with plenty of love to give, Lynette could be the perfect match.

Quiet and polite, he enjoys spending time with his people and often seeks eye contact, looking for reassurance and connection. At times he can be a little submissive and slightly anxious, but his eagerness to please and gentle nature make him a lovely companion.

As he enjoys having space to move and play, Texas will require a home with a secure backyard where he can stretch his legs, play with his toys, and continue growing in confidence.

Bond

5 years old

Bond is licensed to thrill! This handsome greyhound is a friendly, outgoing boy with a larger-than-life personality and a mission to keep life exciting. Bond loves meeting people, launching into spectacular zoomie sessions, and bringing his signature puppyish enthusiasm to everything he does. Impulsive, excitable, and always ready for his next adventure, he's the kind of dog who turns every walk into an action-packed outing. Whether he's dashing around the yard or charming his admirers, Bond approaches life with all the confidence and energy of a secret agent on assignment. Bond is seeking an active home with children aged 5 years and over, or adults who can appreciate his exuberant nature. Due to his enthusiastic greeting style and tendency to get carried away in the excitement of the moment, a home with elderly people would not be suitable. Bond would be happiest as an only dog where he can be the star of the show, but he may also suit a home with a medium to large canine companion who can match his playful energy. Bond is not suitable to live with cats and will need a feline-free home. If you're looking for a loyal partner with a licence for fun, Agent Bond is ready to accept his next mission – and it could be with you. When Bond had his dental done in August 2026 areas of gum thickening were noted and biopsies taken. Results showed fibrous gingival hyperplasia, with is a benign thickening of the gums.
