On the way to the couch.......
FOSTER CARERS REQUIRED
Prior to adoption, greyhounds are fostered out to homes
to learn about being a pet. Many greyhounds have never
been inside a house before, and are not familiar with the
sights and sounds of the average home.
Some Greyhounds will walk into a house for the very first
time and find the most comfortable spot - the couch.
For others the TV, vacuum cleaner, glass doors and even
turning on a tap can be quite frightening.
The foster period can vary. Most would be fostered for a
period of approximately 4 weeks – enough time to learn
about life as a pet and enough time for carers to fall in love!
Greyhound Safety Net provides a collar, lead, muzzle, coat
and super premium holistic dry food.
Indoor bedding can also be supplied upon request.
Full 24/7 support from GSN volunteers is also provided.
We require carers in a variety of situations
– working people, home bodies, with or without other pets,
with or without children. Flats, units, suburban houses.
Most Greyhounds do not need a large yard. Some are comfortable
with a short walk daily and a comfy bed in the house with you!
The foster period can vary, as once a greyhound has the luxury
of being a "GSN" doggy, it will remain in a home situation until adoption
no matter how long it takes.
We do not generally place a Greyhound in a kennel facility once it has
experienced a home environment!
