Alison & Buddy

Buddy is the sweetest boy but is the goofiest craziest mini horse/giraffe!

He has settled in well to his spoilt pet life and loves all of the attention and ALL of the treats! Buddy is driven by food (any food that isn’t his) and is often found hovering around the bin or the kitchen bench which has affectionately earned him the nickname bin-chicken!

Other than finding him circling the kitchen you can mostly find him snuggled on the sofa (or on top of a human if there’s one available)! He has some manners that he needs to work on but other than that he is the goodest boy and we love him!

Love Alison

Maverick

4 years old

Maverick is a handsome greyhound with a big personality and an independent streak. Personable with the people he knows and trusts, Maverick enjoys being part of the action while still appreciating his own space. He can come across as a little aloof at first, but once he's comfortable, his playful side shines through. He loves tasty treats, enjoys stretching his legs with the occasional burst of zoomies, and is sure to bring plenty of laughter and character to his new home. Maverick is looking for a home with adults or a family with children aged 10 years and over. He would be best suited as an only dog, or with a calm medium to large canine companion following a successful introduction. Having completed behavioural rehabilitation, Maverick has made great progress and is ready for a fresh start with an understanding adopter who will continue to support him. Due to his history, he cannot live with small dogs, cats, or other small animals. He is not suited to a home with elderly residents and will thrive in an environment that respects his boundaries while allowing him to build confidence and enjoy life at his own pace.

Violet is a small, sweet-natured girl with a gentle and sensible personality. Quiet, affectionate, and friendly, she enjoys spending time with her people and is happiest soaking up love and attention.

Jerry

5 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.

Targan

5 years old

If you're looking for a dog who greets every day with enthusiasm and a wagging tail, then Targan could be your perfect match! This handsome 5-year-old black greyhound is a very large boy with an even bigger personality. Targan has some osteoarthritis, which doesn't currently cause him discomfort. It will be advisable to monitor this over the years with regular vet checks and arthritic management. Targan is incredibly social and loves meeting new people. Friendly, outgoing and confident, he never misses an opportunity to say hello and soak up some attention. One of his favourite things is enjoying a pat while out on a walk, happily making friends wherever he goes. Affectionate and playful, Targan has a puppy-like zest for life that makes him a joy to be around. He loves treats, enjoys human company and is always keen to be involved in whatever is happening. His excitement can sometimes get the better of him, and he may jump up to greet people or become a little boisterous when he's happy. While he does settle down nicely, he's an active and enthusiastic boy who will thrive with owners who appreciate his energetic nature. Targan can be strong on the lead, particularly when excited, so he'll need confident handlers who can comfortably manage a large dog. For this reason, he is not suited to frail owners. This extroverted lad would suit an active home with a secure backyard where he can stretch his legs and enjoy family life. Due to his size and exuberance, Targan is best suited to a home with children aged 15 years and over. If you're after a fun, affectionate greyhound who will fill your days with happiness, adventures and plenty of personality, Targan is ready to find his forever family.
