Keziah & Buzz
I asked GAP if I may have a greyhound at my house, they invited me to come and look at Buzz and I brought him home.
After a few days I feel like to mother to Buzz and Buzz loves me. I did the paperwork with GAP and now he is all mine. I have been to the dog registration office (Ballarat City Council) to officially register him and we put his middle name, Lightyear, in as well. We got him a tag with a number on it.
He is so cheeky. He thinks he will go up to the kitchen bench and he will take our tea when he has already had his tea. And in the mornings as well. When we have visitors come around and there is food on the table, he thinks it is his food, But we say “No, stay” “No way, Buzz” and he listens to that.
He has a close feeling of love with me. It is like he is my son and I am his mother. He loves to put his head on my shoulder and knees.
He is very good walking with me and with my mum and with Maureen. Sometimes we all walk together. He makes friends when we walk around my hometown Ballarat. When we get home from our walk he loves to sleep lots. He is loving Ballarat and he fits in really well. He likes my dad. Sometimes my dad treats dogs.
Buzz has made looks of friends with my support workers, I have Down Syndrome. Some of the support workers know a lot about greyhounds.
Buzz met my brother, Tim and his wife, Emma, from Sydney. They love him. My other brother and sister who live in Sydney are really excited about meeting Buzz when they come home with their families.
My aunty Margaret from Bacchus Marsh loves Buzz too. One day he might have a holiday with her.
Thank you GAP,
Love Keziah Glenane

King ARP
This is King, an outgoing greyhound with a quirky personality. This affectionate boy's enthusiastic about life, always up for an adventure, and not afraid to show his enthusiastic side. King's a great fit for an active household where he can get plenty of attention and exercise. King may suit households with kids 10+ or adults who can keep up with his playful energy – no small dogs, cats, or old/frail people please! A backyard to stretch his legs and a robust dog companion (medium to large) may be best suitedif he's not the only dog. If you're looking for a fun-loving, loyal companion who's always up for a laugh, King's your guy!
This dog is part of our Assisted Rehoming Program (ARP). We have behavioural and health assessed this lovely dog, and they will remain with their racing owners until they find an adoptive home, at which point they are brought back into GAP. This means that should you be interested in adopting this dog, we are bringing the dog into GAP on the understanding that you will be adopting this particular dog, and not other dogs currently in our care.
Shaun ARP
Shaun has been in a good paddock and is carrying a bit of excess weight at the moment. He’s rocking the dad bod! He’s a friendly and loving chap and if you give him some treats, he will be your best friend for life. Shaun would likely be ok with kids 10 or older, and may be fine with full time workers.
