RSPCA & GAP Adoption Day

RSPCA & GAP Adoption Day

GAP is teaming up again with RSPCA Victoria for a special Adoption Day.

Two communities coming together for greyhounds

GAP is teaming up again with RSPCA Victoria for a special Adoption Day, bringing 14 GAP greyhounds to RSPCA Victoria in Burwood East for one very exciting morning.

On Saturday 10 October, you’ll have the chance to meet a wonderful group of greyhounds, get to know their personalities and chat with the GAP team about finding the right fit for your home and lifestyle.

It’s a special collaboration between two communities who care deeply about animal welfare, and a great opportunity to discover just how much personality, affection and charm a greyhound can bring into your life.

Places are limited, so make sure you register below to join us on the day.

Event Details
  • Saturday 10 October
  • 11.00am to 12.00pm
  • RSPCA Victoria
    3 Burwood Hwy
    Burwood East VIC
  • 14 GAP greyhounds available to meet
Come and meet the greyhounds

Every greyhound has their own personality, preferences and little quirks that make them unique.

You might meet a gentle soul who loves leaning in for pats, a curious character who is ready to explore, or a laid back lounger with their eye firmly on the comfiest spot in the house.

With 14 GAP greyhounds joining us on the day, there will be plenty of personalities to get to know.

The GAP team will be there to introduce you, answer your questions and help you learn more about each greyhound, including the kind of home and lifestyle that could suit them best.

Why Greyhounds?

Greyhounds are known for their gentle nature, affectionate personalities and impressive commitment to relaxation.

They enjoy a walk, a sniff and a little adventure, but many are just as happy stretching out at home, snoozing the afternoon away and keeping their people company.

Every greyhound is different, which is all part of the fun of meeting them in person.

Register to join us

We’re delighted to be working with RSPCA Victoria to bring GAP greyhounds and the wider animal loving community together for this special event.

If greyhound adoption has been on your mind, or you’re simply keen to learn more, this is a wonderful opportunity to meet 14 GAP greyhounds in one place.

Complete the registration form to secure your place.

We can’t wait to welcome you.

Since the dog is being brought into the program based on your interest, we ask that applicants be reasonably confident this is the greyhound they'd like to welcome into their family.
