Adele, Alita & Sunny

Thank you GAP for the most magical pairing ever!! We adopted Alita and Sunshine/ Sunny 12 months ago.

They have melted our hearts with so much love they are just magical. Alita is our mature princess full of grace. She is so incredibly loving and gentle. Full of personality, she will let us know what she want by poking us with her nose. Our giant lap dog who chatters her teeth when she's excited.

Our Sunshine we call him sunny now has come along way since he come into our lives. It took quiet a few months for him to realise we are his furever family, after being with other families. Sunny hugs us with his head as his a big softy and loves being effectionate. He greets us everytime we get home with his squeaky toys, spinning around in circles. A gentle goofy, loving, protective boy. When he wants to go for a walk he will hold my arm and lead me to where the leashes are.

Zoomies are a daily joy with these two. Alita will often encourage sunny to zoom with her. Thank you again GAP for this perfect pairing. Our fur kids furever.

Love Adele

Milla was Lemon

2 years old

Meet Lemon, as cute as her name is! She is only a young girl being barely 2 years old, she is just a sweet delight and the first people to meet her will fall in love. She walks well on a lead and is mostly easy to handle. She enjoys treats, so we think she will be easily trained with her food motivation. She may suit living with or without a canine brother of any size (if a small dog they would be better if they are playful and robust) and children aged 10 years and older.

Potato

6 years old

Meet Potato — a delightfully quirky boy who is exactly as charming as his name suggests. This calm, gentle Greyhound has a laid‑back nature and an endearing personality that makes him impossible not to smile at. Potato is more of a quiet companion, happy to potter along at his own pace and enjoy the simpler side of life. He suits his name perfectly — unbothered, a little bit goofy, and content to just be. Having completed behavioural rehabilitation training, Potato has a solid foundation, though he’ll still benefit from a home willing to continue reinforcing his manners and routine. Potato would suit a relaxed home with adults or families with children aged 5+, where his easygoing nature can shine — however, he is not suitable for homes with elderly individuals. He can live as an only dog or with a calm, medium to large canine friend, but cannot be placed with small dogs or cats. His low‑key temperament means he may be suitable for apartment living, provided his exercise and enrichment needs are met. If you’re looking for a quiet, quirky companion who brings a touch of gentle charm without demanding constant attention, Potato might be your perfect match. THIS LOVELY GREYHOUND WILL BE AVAILABLE AT OUR DOUBLE THE LOVE ADOPTION EVENT ON SUNDAY 31ST MAY - THEY WILL BE AT THE SANDOWN VENUE! REGISTER FOR THE EVENT VIA THE GAP WEBSITE.

Diamond

4 years old

Meet Diamond, a handsome male Greyhound with a calm temperament and a gentle, loving nature. His striking white coat with unique black patches gives him a truly eye-catching look, and his quiet confidence makes him a joy to be around. Diamond is friendly when meeting new people and forms strong, affectionate bonds with those he trusts. He enjoys a relaxed lifestyle—think leisurely strolls, soft places to rest, and simply being near his humans. Diamond would do best in a home with children aged 5 and over or in an adult-only household, and his easygoing nature could make him a lovely companion for an older person. He can happily live as the only dog or alongside a suitable canine companion. If you’re looking for a sweet, steady, and affectionate companion with both charm and good looks, Diamond could be the perfect fit. THIS LOVELY GREYHOUND WILL BE AVAILABLE AT OUR DOUBLE THE LOVE ADOPTION EVENT ON SUNDAY 31ST MAY - THIS DOG WILL BE AT THE SANDOWN VENUE! REGISTER FOR THE EVENT VIA THE GAP WEBSITE.

Ben ARP

2 years old

Ben is a super sweet, highly intelligent, and gentle soul who is looking for a quiet, patient home where he can truly come out of his shell. He is a shy and anxious boy who is cautious around new people and slow to bond, but for the right person, the reward is immeasurable — once he trusts you, he is deeply affectionate, loving, and playful. His foster carer describes him nuzzling in for cuddles, licking hands, and snuggling close. He does best with a calm, consistent presence and will need an owner (or owners) who are gentle and willing to give him the time he needs to feel safe. He would suit a quiet home with older, teenage children, and is happy to live with a calm, polite dog of any size, having bonded beautifully with his foster carer’s small older dog. Once Ben feels secure, his personality truly blossoms. He loves squeaky toys, adores a big plush toy to cuddle up with, and will happily do zoomies around the backyard or chase a toy when he’s comfortable in your company. He is a fast learner — picking up toilet boundaries quickly with gentle guidance — and he settled well with a dedicated safe space of his own, like a large pen, which he never soiled and always retreated to happily. He sleeps through the night and will let you know when he needs to go outside. He is a strong dog on the lead, so a physically confident walker is ideal. He is not a fussy eater but eats best when he feels relaxed and safe. Ben is a truly special dog, and the right patient, gentle home will be so lucky to have him.

Ripple Cake

3 years old

Ripple Cake is a beautiful female greyhound with a heart as soft and sweet as her name suggests. This affectionate, puppyish girl adores human company and truly wants to please—she’ll happily follow you from room to room like a devoted shadow. True to her dessert-inspired name, Ripple Cake has a habit of gently leaning in for cuddles, melting into you like layers of chocolate and cream. She’s playful without being overwhelming, tender without being timid, and brings a comforting sweetness to every moment. Ripple Cake would be best suited to a home with children aged 5+ or with adults who can enjoy her loving, cuddly nature. She can live happily as an only dog, soaking up all the attention, or alongside a compatible canine companion—but she’ll need a cat-free household. If you’re looking for a loyal treat of a dog who will enrich your days with warmth, affection, and a little puppy-like joy, Ripple Cake might just be the perfect slice for your family.

Barracuda

3 years old

Barracuda is a charming male greyhound with a fun-loving, puppyish spirit and a heart full of affection. Friendly and personable, he thrives on human interaction and loves being part of the action, whether it’s playtime, a walk, or simply hanging out with his people.

Barracuda would suit an adult home or a family with children aged 10 and over who can match his enthusiasm and provide a consistent, supportive environment. Barracuda has successfully completed behavioural rehabilitation training and is now ready to settle into a home that understands his needs. He would do best as an only dog or with a compatible medium to large dog, but he cannot live with small dogs or cats. He is not suited to a home with elderly owners, as he benefits from confident handling and structure. With the right home, Barracuda will bring endless affection, companionship, and a joyful presence to everyday life.

Pumpkin

5 years old

Meet Pumpkin, the five-year-old gentleman who turns heads wherever he goes! With his big, dark, soulful eyes — so perfectly framed he looks like he’s wearing makeup — Pumpkin is quite simply one of the most beautiful boys you’ll ever meet. But he’s far more than a pretty face. Pumpkin is calm, gentle, and polite, with a sweet and affectionate nature that melts hearts in an instant. He loves meeting new people and has a warm, outgoing personality that makes him an instant favourite with everyone he encounters. Pumpkin is a wonderfully adaptable boy who would thrive in a variety of homes. He’s happy to share his space with a canine companion of a similar size but is equally content as the solo star of the household. His quiet, laid-back nature also makes him well suited to apartment living — he’s the perfect housemate for those seeking a calm and loving companion. Pumpkin would do well with children aged five and older who can appreciate his gentle soul. If you’re looking for a devoted, good-natured, and absolutely gorgeous companion, Pumpkin might just be your perfect match.

Sofia

5 years old

Meet Sofia, a calm and polite greyhound with a gentle heart and a quiet charm that’s impossible to miss. This sweet, affectionate girl has a lovely way of seeking eye contact, softly checking in and forming a beautiful connection with her people. Sofia carries herself with elegance and grace, but beneath that is a loving companion who enjoys closeness, reassurance, and simply being by your side. She’s completed behavioural rehabilitation training to help her learn appropriate behaviour around other dogs, and she continues to do well with consistent, positive guidance. Sofia is best suited to a home with adults or children aged 10+, where her calm nature will be appreciated and respected. She would thrive as the only dog or with a medium-to-large canine companion, but she isn’t suitable for homes with small dogs or cats. Due to her size and needs, she’s not the right fit for elderly households. In the right environment, Sofia will blossom into a devoted and loving companion, bringing warmth, steadiness, and quiet affection to everyday life.Sofia has Uveitis. Uveitis is inflammation of the uvea, the vascular part of the eye that supplies blood and nutrients to essential eye structures. It can affect one or more parts of the uvea, which includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. This condition can cause pain, redness, light sensitivity, and vision changes. It currently requires no treatment. THIS LOVELY GREYHOUND WILL BE AVAILABLE AT OUR DOUBLE THE LOVE ADOPTION EVENT ON SUNDAY 31ST MAY - THEY WILL BE AT THE SANDOWN VENUE!

Maria

2 years old

Maria is a young, sweet-natured greyhound with a personality as big as her heart. From the moment you meet her, she’ll be gazing into your eyes and wiggling with excitement, eager to make a new best friend. Affectionate and puppyish, Maria loves nothing more than jumping up for a cuddle — she hasn’t quite figured out that not everyone is ready for a greyhound-sized hug! She is enthusiastic and impulsive in the most endearing way, always leading with her heart, and she responds beautifully to treats, making her a joy to work with. Playful and full of energy, she walks well on the lead and is sure to turn heads on her daily adventures. Maria will thrive in a home that can match her lively spirit. She would do best with a robust canine companion to play with and older children aged 15 and above who can appreciate her exuberant nature. A backyard is a must — Maria loves to stretch her long legs and burn off that boundless greyhound energy. With the right family, this little ray of sunshine will blossom into the most devoted and loving companion you could ask for.

She is simply, and wonderfully, herself. She would thrive in a calm, loving home where she can take life at her own sweet pace, and whoever is lucky enough to adopt her will find a truly special little companion. Summer may suit living with or without a canine pal of any size and children aged 5 years and older. Due to her calm demeanour she may suit living in an apartment.
