Robert

4 years old

Meet Robert, a handsome greyhound bursting with personality and joy. Outgoing and wonderfully puppyish at heart, Robert loves to let loose with enthusiastic zoomies and brings a playful spark to everything he does. He can be a bit impulsive, so he’ll thrive with confident handlers who can give him structure while embracing his fun‑loving nature. Robert is best suited to adults or families with kids aged 10 and up who can keep up with his energy and appreciate his goofy charm. Robert is looking for a home where he can be an only dog or live with a medium to large canine companion who enjoys an active lifestyle. He is not cat friendly and will do best in a home without small animals. He is not suited to apartments or homes with elderly residents, as he benefits from space to move and people who are steady on their feet. In the right home, Robert will be an endlessly entertaining, affectionate companion who fills his days with fun and enthusiasm. Robert has had a toe ligament injury prior to GAP entry. He bears weight on this limb and the wrist is stable. Although the injury doesn't bother Robert. there is increased risk of skin abrasion in that toe in the long term.

Jerry

4 years old

Jerry is a gorgeous greyhound with a heart as big as his smile. Sweet, friendly, and happily outgoing, Jerry loves being around his people and soaks up affection like a pro. He’s a bit adorably uncoordinated and doesn’t always know where his long legs are going, which only adds to his charm. Jerry would thrive in a home with adults or confident kids aged 5+, where there’s plenty of room for him to stretch out and enjoy life. Jerry is best suited as the only dog, or with a calm, compatible dog friend who appreciates his gentle nature. Because of his size and clumsiness, he’s not suited to homes with elderly or frail people or older, delicate dogs. Jerry cannot live with cats, and apartment living isn’t a good match for him—he’ll be happiest in a secure home with space to move. If you’re looking for an affectionate, happy greyhound to share your days (and your couch), Jerry might be your perfect match.

Snoopy

3 years old

Snoopy is a happy, affectionate boy with a big personality to match. He’s sweet, friendly, outgoing, and confident, always ready to say hello and lean in for some love. He can be a little boisterous and excitable at times, but that just adds to his charm. Snoopy has a quirky side and a fun nature, making him an enjoyable companion to have around. Snoopy thrives on attention and enjoys being close to his people, happily leaning into you for pats whenever he gets the chance. He has also successfully completed a behavioural rehabilitation program, which has helped him continue to grow into the wonderful dog he is today. Snoopy may suit a home as an only dog where he can soak up all the attention, or potentially with medium to large dogs. He may also be suitable to live with children 10+. Due to his excitable nature, Snoopy will need a secure, enclosed backyard set away from high levels of stimulation, where he can relax and feel comfortable. Snoopy has had a hock fracture, prior to coming into GAP. He had hardware in place, which we have removed whilst in our care.

Julian

5 years old

Julian might not come with a crown, but he definitely has a little "King Julian" energy - just without the chaos. This quiet boy is friendly, personable, and loves a bit of affectionate, often leaning into people for comfort. While he can be a little cautious at times, he takes things at his own pace and builds trust beautifully. We think Julian will be best in a home with a canine companion; he will suit a home with medium or large dogs. He also may suit a household with children aged 10+.
