Rod & Tuppy
We thought we were not ready to adopt following our recent loss (at the time) of our dear GAP boy Mushu so we decided just to participate in the GAP Christmas Foster program.
In all honesty at the time, we had decided it was foster “only” and had prepared ourselves that the foster was going back at the end of the foster period..
There was no special request for any particular GAP grey that was going out for foster.
Out of complete random luck we were given Tuppence (Tuppy) to look after over the 3-week Christmas break.
Tuppy is a beautiful gentle natured girl who loves her walks, her shell pool (in Summer) and playing with her squeaky toys that she carries and regularly runs around the house with.
Tuppy is also a professional roacher demonstrating this fine greyhound art to us in only the first few days at our home.
In the first week we knew (& Tuppy knew) she had found her forever home as she had such an incredibly good nature and had settled in so well.
We knew there was no way Tuppy was going back!
Nearly six months only Tuppy is doing so well it is like she has been with us for a number of years.
For a quite girl (& a grey) Tuppy can be quite vocal (barking) when she gets excited or wants something (to come in or out of the house). She is a great communicator.
Very occasionally, when we ignore her she can find ways to get our attention including taking a (very) gentle nibble of our coffee table or just checking up where we are (irrespective of what room we are in!). All very cute – we love our Tuppy very much.
Love Rod

Meet our dogs ready for adoption
All greyhounds adopted from GAP are de-sexed, vaccinated, microchipped, wormed and health checked.

Jacko ARP

Jacko's dream is to be in a home witha 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 nothingmore than human attention and affection. He may suit living with another dog ofsimilar size or if living as an only dog may need to have some training earlyon to learn to be home alone. He may suit living with children aged 10 yearsand older.

Boppy ARP

Are you ready to get Boppy!! Cause this sweet girl is ready to take on life with her own family and show them what having fun is all about. Boppy is an affectionate and happy girl that thinks life is GREAT! She cant wait to have many adventures in her new home with possibly some side kicks (children 10 and over) or just a fun loving owner that is wanting to get out and about and “Bop” around. We also think she may suit living with another medium or larger male dog companion and full time workers.

Cleopatra



Wendy




Wendy-Lou ARP



Wendy Lou is just the sweetest, loveliest girl who you will ever meet! She is super sweet, friendly, and personable, and a dream to be around. She may suit living with an older owner or in an apartment. She might be happy living with full-time workers and children aged 5 years and over.

Zoom ARP

How adorable is Zoom? She is a lovely, quiet and sweet girl who thinks the world is a bit of a scary place. She will be looking for someone special who can show her the way and help her to build her confidence. She really tries hard to please so we think she will flower into a lovely dog. Zoom might be best suited to a quieter home with no children, however she may suit full time workers.
