Conrad

Meet the handsome Conrad! He is very friendly and thinks he is a big puppy at times. He is very affectionate and if he could he would climb on to your lap for cuddles. Conrad may suit living with or without a canine companion of any size and due to his OTT love of people he would likely do better in a home with children in their teenage years.

Mika

Look at the beautiful Mika! How pretty can you get in a picture? She is just as pretty in real life we can assure you. She can be a bit playful at times, so won't suit living in an apartment. However, we are happy to report she walks on the lead and is easy to handle. She has successfully completed our onsite Behavioural Rehabilitation Program and is now ready for adoption! She may suit living with or without a canine brother of similar size and children in their teens. Mika has an auto immune disease called "Pannus", which affects the eyes. This is controlled with daily eye drops, ongoing.

Meet Arrow, this handsome boy is looking for his forever home. His loving nature and affection, he’s sure to bring joy and companionship to his family. Arrow thrives on attention and interaction, and hell reward his family with loyalty.
Arrow is best suited to a household where he can be by himself, allowing him to settle in and become the beloved companion he is meant to be. He may be okay with another large or medium canine buddy.

Hulk Smash

Hulk is a smashing lad who is as soft on the inside as a marshmallow, we promise! The only thing he wants to crush, is your hesitation around welcoming him or one of his fellow hound heroes into your life! Hulk gets a little over exuberant at times, and needs to work on his lead skills, but this is an easy habit to overcome! If you are prepared to be patient and work with him, Hulk promises to protect and defend your heart until his last breath and beyond. He is friendly, puppyish, confident, and needs a yard to do his zoomies in and body slam those squeaky toys. He may suit living with children 10+, full time workers, and may do well on his own or with a medium or larger canine friend to take on the world with. He is a leaner, but is also independent, the perfect balance. So what are you waiting for? Come and meet him today, your love story might just be a knockout!

Sam Iam

Sam Iam the super sweet and social boy that just wants to please you and give you all loving that he has to give. Sam is good to walk on the lead and we think he may suit households that love to get out and about. We think he would be better in a home with a yard and no elderly or frail family members (incl. other dogs). We also think they might suit living with children 10 and above or another medium or larger dog as company. Sam has some mild Osteoarthritis which does not affect his day-to-day life

Jeff Lebowski


Jeff "The Dude" Lebowski is an adorable pooch, just look at that cute face! Jeff is a young boy who has lots to learn about life and even though he will be turning 4 this year, he still acts like a big puppy! He can find other breeds of dog (other than greyhounds) a little scary, but we feel with a patient owner who will help him by gradually introducing him to other breeds in the right way, he will realise that other breeds of dog are just as good as greyhounds (well almost ;) ). Jeff would like a home where all the love can be showered on him and he does not have to share with another dog. Jeff is fond of the loud noises younger children can make so a home with teenagers aged 15 years and older, we believe he will do best in a home with a backyard for him to run and play in.

Bruiser

Bruiser is a big puppy in an adult body! In new environments and with new people Bruiser can be a bit unsure and seems shy, but after some reassuring pats and some tasty treats, Bruiser will be an outgoing pup and your best friend in no time! Bruiser may suit living with or without another playful pup of similar size and children aged 15 years and older. We think Bruiser will do best in a home with a backyard so he can run and play in. Bruiser has successfully completed our onsite Behavioural Rehabilitation Program and is now ready for adoption! Bruiser has an old hock fracture, which doesn't affect his day-to-day life.

Marcel Marceau

Marcel Marceau is a mature chap who is so handsome, with his lovely white markings from his nose down to his chest. Marcel is a strong boy who doesn't realise his size and ideally will need a confident and experienced large dog owner and be willing to put some time into his loose lead skills. But with time and training Marcel will blossom into a lovely boy and will give his owner lots of love and affection. Marcel may suit living with or without a canine pal of similar size and children aged 10 years and older. Marcel would likely do best in a home with a backyard to get some of his energy out. Marcel has a cataract and microthalmia in his right eye.
