Greyhounds and gelato – what more could you ask for?

Greyhounds and gelato – what more could you ask for?

Greyhounds met with office workers at Victoria Gardens in Richmond today as part of an organised promotion for greyhounds as pets.

Bengal and Gebauer – both of which are available for adoption – proved a huge hit along with fellow greyhounds Marshall and Denim as more than 100 people wandered across during their lunch break to meet the adorable pooches and enjoy some free gelato.

Greyhounds are proven to be excellent office dogs and are an increasingly popular inner-suburban pet.

Harris

3 years old

Talk about a big softie! This lovely boy is such a sweetheart, he leans into you pats and looks up to you with his big eyes. He can be a little shy in new environments but soon bounces back to his joyful self! We think he may suit many households as long as there is a nice yard for him to relax and explore in.

Latte

1 years old

Attention coffee lovers, Latte may be the dog for you! Latte may be an addiction to her new owner as she is so fun, she will have them in fits of endless laughter with her antics. She is only a young girl being not even 2 years old. She is very bouncy girl and doesn't realise her own size at times.

Prince

4 years old

Meet the royal man himself, Prince! Prince can be a bit of an introvert at times and takes a little time to warm up to people, but once he does he will be your loyal companion and best friend! Prince is also a bit of independent chap who isn't a dog to follow you around and demand pats all the time, so he enjoys the quiet life of his own company. We are happy to report that Prince is a dream to walk on lead, no pulling or being erratic. Prince may suit living with or without a canine companion of any size and would do best in a home with no children. We feel that Prince also wouldn't suit living in an apartment or the busy and bustle of the city. Prince is scared of men so he would prefer to live in a female only home. He also has stranger danger and will bark or growl at new people to the home but improves when he gets used to them.

Buddy

7 years old

If you're looking for your new Buddy, then we've got your guy! Buddy is a nice quiet, sweet, and personable boy who loves a cuddle once he warms up to you. He does have a little timidness when it comes to smaller dogs and while he is fine living with full time workers, he would also be ok to live with a quieter, more placid poochy sibling of any size. He's looking for a child free home.

Soba

5 years old

Loving this girl is something no one needs to noodle-over! Beautiful Soba is a super sweet energetic girl with a heart of gold. With her striking good looks and affectionate nature, Soba would potentially suit a home with another medium or large canine friend, but her playful ways mean she would not suit a home with a small dog or a cat. She may do well in a home with children 5+ to play with.

Bertha

8 years old

Dont worry - Bertha does have two ears! She just has selective hearing like most Greyhounds we know. Bertha may be 8yrs old but she is still a puppy at heart. She loves to do zoomies, play and actively watches all the things happening at GAP - some would say she is a bit of a sticky-beak but we think she just wants to make sure she gets her share of attention for the day. Bertha is such a sweet, gentle and affectionate lady and she will shower her new family in love and have them laughing at her silly antics all day. We think she may suit living with another male dog of any size and children 5+.
