Foster to Adopt

Thinking about bringing a new pet home can be met with mixed emotions, the excitement of finally having a greyhound to call your own, the worry of what it will be like when it finally happens. We get it!
That’s why Victoria’s Greyhound Adoption Program is excited to announce that our Foster to Adopt initiative is here to stay.
After the amazing success of our Christmas Foster Campaign where 30+ greyhounds were adopted by their foster families, we are extending it all year round.
Every interested adopter now has the option to foster for a 3-week trial period before deciding on whether or not to make it official.
3-weeks to win everyone in the family over. 3-weeks to make sure the breed is right for you. Now for the best part…If at the end of the foster period you can’t bear the thought of living life without your hound – you can adopt them!
If you are interested in trialing one of our gorgeous greyhounds, check out our available dogs here and give GAP a call to organise a meet and greet with what could be your new best friend.

All greyhounds adopted from GAP are de-sexed, vaccinated, microchipped, wormed and health checked.

Jacko ARP
Jacko's dream is to be in a home witha family that can include him all of their activities; he is up for camping,going to the café, beer garden, local markets, you name it! He loves nothingmore than human attention and affection. He may suit living with another dog ofsimilar size or if living as an only dog may need to have some training earlyon to learn to be home alone. He may suit living with children aged 10 yearsand older.

Boppy ARP
Are you ready to get Boppy!! Cause this sweet girl is ready to take on life with her own family and show them what having fun is all about. Boppy is an affectionate and happy girl that thinks life is GREAT! She cant wait to have many adventures in her new home with possibly some side kicks (children 10 and over) or just a fun loving owner that is wanting to get out and about and “Bop” around. We also think she may suit living with another medium or larger male dog companion and full time workers.

Zoom ARP
How adorable is Zoom? She is a lovely, quiet and sweet girl who thinks the world is a bit of a scary place. She will be looking for someone special who can show her the way and help her to build her confidence. She really tries hard to please so we think she will flower into a lovely dog. Zoom might be best suited to a quieter home with no children, however she may suit full time workers.

Xinji ARP
Xinji (pronounced Shin-jee) is a lovely young girl who has a world of love to give you. She can be a bit of a worrier and can be shy when she first meets you, but with a little bit of time and patience, we know she will blossom into a wonderful companion. She walks well on the lead and will be looking for a quiet household to settle into. She may be happy living with or without another canine companion of any size, though she would prefer having access to a backyard. She may also suit full time workers and living with children aged in their teens.
