Educational Webinar 1: Reserve your place

As part of National Adoption Month, GAP Victoria is hosting two free Educational Webinars.
The first of these is with the RSPCA’s Liam Deans-Pope, on Thursday 13 April from 8-9.30pm, with the session to focus on dog behaviour and training.
Liam has worked in the animal welfare industry for the over twelve years and as a behavioural trainer for the past six.
During this time, he has enjoyed the opportunity to work with a wide variety of domestic animals across Victoria in a range of roles, including an animal management officer for a local council, an assessor of retired racing Greyhounds and most recently as the senior animal trainer for a rescue organisation.
Liam feels strongly that the human animal bond is a thing to be treasured, a belief that is reflected in his commitment to scientifically validated, force-free training methods.
He understands that companion animal training and management is an ever-evolving field and is always seeking to further his knowledge and understanding.
Liam has a particular passion for working with fearful and/or reactive dogs, having owned more than a few of them himself.

Meet our dogs ready for adoption
All greyhounds adopted from GAP are de-sexed, vaccinated, microchipped, wormed and health checked.

Stella


Such a pretty, sweet, polite young girl is Stella! She can be a little on the shy side at times, but we feel that she grows in confidence pretty quickly, especially is there is another dog around to show her the way. Stella may suit living with children 10+ and medium or larger male dogs. Stella would be best in a home with a nice yard to relax in and might also suit living with full time workers if there is a doggy friend around to hang out with.

Bobby

Bobby is a lovely young man, just look at his beautiful light-coloured eyes, they seem to stare into your soul. Bobby is a social, friendly and affectionate boy who is keen to move into his furever home. He may suit living with or without a canine pal of similar size and children aged 10years and older.

Leonard



Leonard is a quiet boy with a gentle nature. He can be a little unsure in new situations but quickly relaxes and comes out of his shell. He’s very pretty and has a beautiful golden coat. Lovely Leonard would likely be ok with children aged 5 or older, and he may be fine with full time workers. Due to his quiet nature he may even suit apartment living.

Alure



Bruno


Sam Iam


Nikki

Meet sweet Nikki, this little lady is incredibly sweet and would love nothing less than all your attention. Nikki would prefer to be the only poochy pal in your life so she can give you all her love and you can give her every drop of yours. She may do best in a home with teenage children or no children due to her introverted nature.
Sue

Meet the lovely Sue! Not only is she drop dead gorgeous, but she is also super sweet. She can come across as a tad shy and puppyish to begin with but doesn't take her long to let her lovely personality shine bright. She may suit living as an only dog or with a canine companion of similar size. She may suit living with children from 10 years and older. Due to her puppyish nature we don't think Sue would be suitable to live in an apartment.
Ruby Friday

Meet the gorgeous Ruby! Ruby is so sweet and soft like a marshmallow. She is only a young lady who can be a bit unsure of new situations and with new people but soon recovers and acts like a super happy pup! She loves people and enjoys a cuddle. She may suit living as an only dog or with a dog of similar size to her, hopefully a dog that will play with her! She may also suit living with children aged 10 years and older.

Lee

How handsome is this young chap! Mr Lee here is a stunning, sleek, shiny boy that is just as sweet as he is handsome. Lee is still a young one getting to know the ropes so he can be a bit silly and on the go but he does sometimes step back and take it all in. He can be a little shy in new situations but soon forgets what he was worried about and is back to his usual playful self. We think Lee may suit living with children 10+ and maybe another medium or larger companion. He has requested a backyard though please as he wants to show you his epic zoomies and play till its nap time!
