It’s Valentine’s Day next Tuesday, but at GAP we’re getting in early.

For humans, it’s the time of flowers, chocolates, romance and proposals, but for our greyhounds it’s just about the enduring love that comes from one of our goofy long-dogs.Come and meet your possible new ‘bestie’ at our Tullamarine kennels this Saturday.

We’ll be open from 9am until 3pm, and you don’t need to make an appointment. They’ll be ready and on their best behaviour, eager to impress on your first date. Think of it as ‘speed dating’, but there’s no rush.

Come and find a possible relationship… perhaps your ‘paw-fect match’? Adoption is just $100, and we’ll make sure you have almost everything to kick off your relationship on the right paw.

Drop in anytime between 9am and 3pm. GAP Tullamarine is located at 444 Melrose Drive, Tullamarine (click here to see a map)

Toby

4 years old

Toby knows how to use his ear antenna's very well to listen out for any treat packets being opened! Toby is a quiet, gentle and sensitive boy that loves having his butt scratched and will show you by throwing his legs around in joy as you do it. Toby can be a little gusto on the lead at times but this will settle as he gets into a regular walking routine with his new family. We think Toby may suit a home without another dog but if there is another doggo he would prefer that they are also quiet, calm and respectful of him as he can find them a bit too much and scary at times. We also think he may suit children 10+ and maybe even a home with a cat! Make sure to "ear" mark Toby as your favourite and give GAP a call!

Savvy

3 years old

Meet the sweet Savvy! She is a little bit of an introvert who likes the quiet life, however once she feels comfortable and her true colours shine through, she is puppyish and playful and loves to do zoomies. She wants nothing more than to please her people and will have you in fits of laughter too! Savvy may suit living with or without a canine friend of any size, she may even be OK to live with a feline friend! Due to her submissive nature, we feel she will do best in a quiet home with children 10 years and older and will likely do best in a home with a backyard.

Meet Javin, the charming and charismatic greyhound who's ready to steal the show!

We think he will be likely be easily trained due to his food motivation. Tommy may suit living with or without a robust canine pal of similar size and children aged 10 years and older. We believe that Tommy wouldn't be suited to live in an apartment. Tommy is blind in the Left eye. This requires no treatment or medication and is suspected to be from an old injury.

Arlo

4 years old

Power up those ears Arlo and listen in for your new family! One way to describe Arlo is he is a bit "quirky". You think you've met most personalities of greyhound then you meet Arlo and find more things to love about the breed! Arlo is a sleek, shiny boy that is friendly and outgoing, quiet but also will get up and burst out in dance all of a sudden! He has a knack for getting his coat off and will most willingly show you how he does it and expect you to clap and cheer when he succeeds. He tends not to really care about other dogs around him but has spent time doing some socialising at GAP with the Behaviour Team so he understands how to when he does want to say hi. Arlo is a secret cuddle bug and whilst he tends to act like he is totally fine chillin by himself, he does love to have a good cuddle and scratch and be told what a good boy he is. Arlo does has a low-grade heart murmur which doesn't require medication or affect his day-to-day life. We think he may suit living with children 10+ and another medium or larger dog that doesn't need to Arlo to be their "bestie".

Dreamy is just a small girl with a BIG personality. She is vibrant, enthusiastic, goofy and full of love. Not only will she turn heads but she will melt hearts.

We think she may suit living with children 15+ and another medium or larger male companion.
