WHY ADOPT A GREYHOUND FROM US?
Great pets
Greyhounds make great pets, they are quiet, well mannered, and very easy to live with. They are friendly, lazy, calm, affectionate, clean, loving, trusting, good-natured and very social.

Low maintenance
Greyhounds require less exercise than people think, they also have very little odour and shed minimally. Head to our FAQ page for more greyhound myth busters!

Green Collar
Once you have been issued a Green Collar your greyhound will not need to wear a muzzle in public. We are the only rehoming group in WA able to issue a muzzle exemption in the form of
a Green Collar.
Twice as fun
Greyhounds love the company of other dogs. If you are looking for a companion for an existing dog, a greyhound is the perfect addition to your family.

She is the perfect companion to our small elderly terrier too! We would highly recommend welcoming a greyhound into your home and hearts.”
“GAP have supported our family through two adoptions for our two beautiful greyhounds. The love and care they have for each dog is incredible. Every success can be attributed to their wonderful staff, volunteers, programs and foster carers.”
“You have given us a beautiful grey in Bear! We love him to bits and he’s fitted in perfectly with us. He surprised us with how quickly he adapted to us and our routine. He was toilet trained in a couple of days and has been friendly and gentle with children, adults and the many animals he’s met in the two weeks we’ve had him.”
GREYHOUNDS READY FOR ADOPTION
Donny
I act a lot younger than my five and a half years suggest and would be better suited to a household where I have another doggy friend for company.
More about me
Evie
I would thrive in a household where I have another social, playful dog for company and a family that is happy to let me adjust over time.
More about me
Bushy
I’m a handsome devil aren’t I? Well try not to be too distracted by my devilish charm as I am on the lookout for a more specific home.
More about me
Gabbie
I’m not as outgoing as my Toy Story 4 namesake and would prefer a quieter, more laid back lifestyle as can be a little apprehensive in new situations. Once I get to know someone I’m full of cuddles and kisses, I just need a bit of extra time to get to know them.
More about me
Mister
With my calm, steady nature you wouldn’t guess I was less than two years old. I am such a sweet natured, friendly boy who would fit in well in most households.
More about me
Spud
Now I bet you’re wondering how one gets a name like Spud? Well I like to think it’s because of my versatile nature (I mean potatoes can be fried, boiled, mashed etc) and my ability to fit into most households.

Tommy
I’ve received the nickname ‘Cuddle Monster Tommy’ at GAP and I must admit I do adore a good cuddle session.

Ollie
Well I guess by my age you’d be expecting I’ve slowed down a bit… well I haven’t! I’m an outgoing, loving boy who just wants to grab every opportunity with both paws. I’m so happy go lucky and would love a like-minded enthusiastic family to go on adventures with and who are happy to spend time with me.
