Leigh & Swifty & Aussie

What an amazing pair of pooches! They've taken to their new digs with a gusto.

After giving the place a thorough sniffing over, they tucked in to a big dinner, then selected a couple of prime couch spots and got stuck into a good nap. They haven't looked back since! Aussie is the sweetest and happiest chap you could hope to meet. He starts every day with a big stretch, and then an even bigger smooch, nuzzling his face into you and gazing up with his beautiful big brown eyes to wish you the best 'good morning!' His sister, Swifty, is a hilarious ball of energy who gallops up and down the yard, waving her new best friend stuffed toy in the air.

Where she goes, Stuffy goes too, like partners in crime. She always has her friend close while taking a nap, or supervising me doing work outside. Their behaviour and nature are an absolute credit to their former owner. Their energy and enthusiasm for everything they encounter is infectious. It's been less than a week, and they've already changed the whole atmosphere of our household. I find myself looking forward to the next morning's 'hellos!' and as excited to see what the new day brings as they are. I already can't imagine the house without these two happy goofs in it.

Love Leigh

The handsome “Quinn” was my 14th foster and the excitement, challenge and reward of the experience is exactly the same with every foster I have had.

Joe ARP

4 years old

Happy Joe! This handsome young boy is a friendly and personable young boy that loves his food, toys and zoomies. Joe has had a lot of experience being a pet and is ready to spread his love and joy to his new family. Joe may suit living in a home with children 10 and over and another canine companion of any size. As Joe is still a bundle of fun we think if he has a smaller play buddy they would be better being a bit robust as he loves to zoom! Joe would appreciate a nice backyard to do his sillies in and make you laugh everyday with his antics.

Empire ARP

3 years old

Well, they all say Rome wasn’t built in a day, but perhaps you want to bring an Empire into yours and make it a kingdom of fun, laughter, cuddles and play time. Empire may suit many homes and living with children 10+ or maybe even another medium or larger canine buddy. Empire has a non-painful corn that isn't causing any issues, but he will come with a paid approval to get a flexor tenotomy if and issues with this arises.

Jacko ARP

4 years old

Jacko's dream is to be in a home with a family that can include him all of their activities; he is up for camping, going to the café, beer garden, local markets, you name it! He loves nothing more than human attention and affection. He may suit living with another dog or if living as an only dog may need to have some training early on to learn to be home alone. He may suit living with children aged 10 years and older. He may also be happy living in an apartment. THIS LOVELY DOG WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION AT OUR UPCOMING BENDIGO ADOPTION DAY ON SUNDAY 16TH NOVEMBER!

Foxy

4 years old

Meet the fun girl, Foxy! Foxy will have her people in fits of laughter with her antics! She is very playful, puppyish and she does 'tornados' (spins) on the spot while on lead when she is excited! We think she may be able to learn how to sit fairly easily on command, as she does it naturally- she sits infront of you and lovingly looks up into your eyes awaiting some affection, you won't be able to resist her! Foxy may suit living with or without a canine brother of similar size and children aged 10 years and older. We feel she will likely do best in a home with a backyard so she can do the full extent of her tornados and zoomies!

Old Man

7 years old

Don't let his name fool you, this Old Man still has a lot of love left to give and is wise beyond his years! Old Man is a sweet gentleman with a heart of gold and a sweet soul. He is incredibly affectionate and polite, and even better he may be very comfortable in a home with a feline companion. This gentle boy can be a bit nervous around other dogs with high energy, so we think he may suit being the star of the show as an only dog or may enjoy another calm greyhound to keep him company. Old Man would like a quiet home with no children.

Fettuccine

3 years old

This delicious dish is served with a big helping of love, a cute curly tail and a sprinkle of playfulness. Our Fettuccine is one to try! She is always happy and she loves to zoom around. We think a nice backyard for her to play in and a family that will take her on adventures would best suit her. She has recently completed some extra behavioural training here at GAP and is ready to fill you hearts with affection and your bellies with laughter. She may also suit living with children 10 and over and other medium or larger male companion.

Larry

2 years old

Larry the loveable larrikin is ready to bounce into his new forever home! Larry is one of a kind, not only is he a handsome, sleek and full of life, he has one very 'small' difference that makes him stand out! He has almost no tail! Poor Larry wagged and wagged till he couldn't wag it anymore (happy tail is a real thing!). Larry is still very much a puppy and although has come such a long way at GAP with extra training, he will benefit from a family willing to continue his manners training in the real world. Larry may be ok with children 15 and over and certainly will be better in a home with a backyard as he loves to zoom and play with toys. He may also be ok with another like-minded medium or larger canine companion.

Lewis

2 years old

Meet Lewis, a boisterous and impulsive greyhound with a personality that's larger than life! This extroverted boy loves being the centre of attention and will often show off his playful side to anyone who'll watch. When he's not busy being a goofball, Lewis loves getting back scratches. Lewis is looking for an active home with a backyard where he can run around and burn off energy. He's best suited to households with or without teenagers over 15, and needs to be the only dog or live with a medium to large dog companion. Due to his energetic nature, Lewis wouldn't suit elderly owners or apartment living. If you're an active family or individual looking for a fun-loving companion to join your adventures, Lewis might be the perfect fit!
