Greyhounds for Adoption

Pet Exchange Register Source Number: EE100952

Females vs Males?
While all our dogs have very individual personalities, we find our male greyhounds are as sweet, affectionate and loyal as our females.

Do you live in an Apartment?
It needs more commitment to care for a greyhound in an Apartment. So please read our information on  the Greyhounds and apartment living page before you apply to adopt or foster a GSN greyhound.

Yoda - aged 5

Adoption Pending

Yoda, or Blue (he's not decided on his name yet) is a 6 year old boy starting out his retirement. He is a very big blue greyhound with a broad chest and white socks. He enjoys playing in water, lazing around the house, and having his ears scratched.

His current foster arrangement is a professional household where he is left alone during the day with no issues. When home with his foster carers he is bouncy and happy, but settles well.  On walks, Blue is an easy walker (twice daily) and when meeting other dogs he expresses keen interest but gets on well. The larger the dog, the easier he gets along, but has not been left unsupervised with other dogs yet.

Due to his size, it is recommended that Blue avoids being housed with small children as he can be a bit pushy when following you around the house.  He also enjoys a good bed, but is starting to learn boundaries and act responsibly.

Blue is an ideal candidate for obedience and familiarisation training with his forever family to start moulding him into the perfect pet.

Yoda (Blue) is not cat tolerant.

Cash - aged 4 1/2

Adoption Pending

Cash may have won 12 out of her 40 races, but these days the only racing she does is to get to her food at meal times. Otherwise, she's perfectly content to laze around all day quietly in her retirement.

Like most greyhounds, Cash doesn't bark. She's not done so once throughout the time she has been in foster care. The only time you will hear her is if she whines to go outside to toilet, or someone's forgotten to have her food ready at meal times.

Having come from kennels, Cash is clearly used to a strict, regimented life style. She will readily follow instructions even if she doesn't seem to want to do something.

As a pet, she has been quick to discover toys, and happily "moves house" with her toys from spot to spot in the house to amuse herself.  She is also more than happy to come up to you for pats and to have her ears scratched.

Due to the current COVID19 restrictions, it hasn't been easy to tell how she reacts in every situation, but she is fairly timid in new situations at this stage.

Cash is a lovely young girl, just waiting for a place to call her forever home.

Cash is not cat friendly

Xena - aged 4

Zena is a lovely, relaxed girl, who will  show you affection by burying her head into you, and looking into your eyes with her beautiful, sweet face.

Xena loves her walks, food, playing with her toys, and snuggling into her bed (or yours) where she sleeps peacefully through the night.

Happy to be a solo dog, Xena enjoys a little run, so a backyard would be ideal, but not necessary, as she is very good inside the house.

Xena will make a great companion to anyone, and would also fit into a family with children.

Zena is not cat friendly

Chester - aged almost 8

Adoption Pending

Sponsored by James Moss

Chester is a friendly, loving boy, who likes to follow his foster carers around to be patted.

He is currently living with a labrador, who he gets along very well with, and has recently discovered how to play with squeaky toys.

Chester walks very well on the leash, and lays down quietly in the car.

All in all, Chester is an all-round good boy, and will make a loving companion for whoever is lucky enough to adopt him.

Chester is not cat tolerant.

Minnie - aged 7

Adoption Pending

Sponsored by Leah Eddy

Minnie is a 7 year old girl who, following a successful racing career, had the pleasure of three sets of puppies. She is now looking forward to a happy retirement with a loving forever home. So far, she has shown herself to be adorable with no issues whatsoever.

House training was not a problem, or being left on her own for a short time. She walks nicely on leash with no pulling, meeting and greeting other dogs politely, and is excellent around children.

Although being a couch potato most of the time, Minnie has energy that belies her age, and loves to play excitedly, zooming around the house, up and down stairs.

She can jump in and out of the car, and settles down for the ride. She loves cuddles, and will lick you to death given half the chance.

Minnie could probably suit most loving homes, but a garden to run around in would be a bonus.

Minnie is not cat friendly

Gomez - aged 4

Adoption Pending

Gomez is a big, friendly, goofy, boy with lots of love to give.

He has adapted to home life extremely well, and is currently living with a family with two children.

Gomez walks very well on the lead, and likes to greet everyone he meets. He loves to play with squeaky toys, and travels well in the car.

A big affectionate boy who loves to be involved in family life, Gomez would really love a home where he has people or another dog to keep him company.

Gomez is not cat friendly.

Nelly, aged nearly 8

Adoption Pending

Sponsored by Mark Vasudeva

Nellie is a beautiful blue girl, who would probably be best suited to a home with another dog, but like all greyhounds loves being inside the home.

She especially loves human beds, and will happily sleep with you and keep the bed safe for you during the day.

She is good with older children, and enjoys walks and car travel.  And, she really loves her food.

Nelly is house trained, and would suit a family home.

Nelly is available for adoption.

Nelly is not cat friendly.

Nova - aged 6

Adoption Pending

Nova is a sweet, cuddly, affectionate girl who love to snuggle with humans and hang around with her doggie friends.

She loves walkies, saying hello to people out and about, and pottering around the yard.

Nova travels well in the car, and she sits and drops for treats and pats. She loves to keep you company while you are gardening, and will greet you with a wagging tail when you get home from work.

Nova is best suited to a home where she has a doggie friend, or with someone who is home a lot and happy to allow her access to inside the house when she is left.

Nova is not cat friendly.

Jay - aged 4 1/2

Adoption Pending

Jay is a very handsome boy with a beautiful gentle nature. He is a very loving dog who will love his new owners unconditionally, loving a good rub on his back and behind his ears.

Jay is a very quick learner in becoming a pet dog by knowing where his bed is, when to go to the toilet, and loving walks. He has been sleeping through the night next to his foster mum in his own bed, and doesn't need to go to the toilet during the night.

On walks, he is good on the leash, isn't reactive to cars or other noises, and has been good with any other dogs he meets.  Because Jay is a big boy, small dogs can be scared of him, but Jay doesn't react.

Jay would love to be homed with another dog who will teach him how to play, and then curl up and relax.

All in all, Jay is an all-round good boy.

Jay is not cat friendly.

Dottie - aged 7

Adoption Pending

Dottie is a very, very sweet little black girl who will make a perfect pet for someone who is looking for a companion for their small to medium dog.

She is very affectionate, loves a short walk each day, and then sleeps the rest of the day away.

She gets along with dogs of all sizes, and would love a companion if she is to be left alone during the day.

This little poppet has fitted straight into her foster home, which has dogs both big and small with no problems at all. It will be a lucky person who gets to spend life with Dottie.

Dottie is not cat friendly.

Sandy - aged 5 1/2

Adoption Pending

Sandy has settled into pet life wonderfully. She is happy being an only dog, as long as she gets lots of company from her humans.

She walks well on the leash, and enjoys her food. Sandy is house trained and the best companion, but she does like to jump up on you so probably wouldn't be suited to a home with young children. Her foster carers are trying to work on this, but she does forget herself, especially when there are new people around.

Otherwise, Sandy is a happy and affectionate girl.

Sandy is not cat friendly.
