Adopting a Greyhound "will change your life"

Adopting a Greyhound "will change your life"

Popular radio duo Craig Hutchison and Liam Pickering recently caught up with GRV Chair Peita Duncan and her pet greyhound Dynamite to discuss the Greyhound Adoption Program.

Peita and Dynamite entered SEN’s South Melbourne studios on 17 June as part of the station’s Saturday morning Off The Bench program, with Dynamite even chiming in on the conversation.

“It’s only $100 to adopt a greyhound and I know some people are paying thousands for designer dogs,” Ms. Duncan said.

“These dogs are pure bred and GAP matches you to the right dog… it’s like a dating show.”

Lemon

1 years old

Meet Lemon, as cute as her name is! She is only a young girl being barely 2 years old, she is just a sweet delight and the first people to meet her will fall in love. She walks well on a lead and is mostly easy to handle. She enjoys treats, so we think she will be easily trained with her food motivation. She may suit living with or without a canine brother of any size (if a small dog they would be better if they are playful and robust) and children aged 10 years and older.
