Greyhounds and gelato – what more could you ask for?

Greyhounds and gelato – what more could you ask for?

Greyhounds met with office workers at Victoria Gardens in Richmond today as part of an organised promotion for greyhounds as pets.

Bengal and Gebauer – both of which are available for adoption – proved a huge hit along with fellow greyhounds Marshall and Denim as more than 100 people wandered across during their lunch break to meet the adorable pooches and enjoy some free gelato.

Greyhounds are proven to be excellent office dogs and are an increasingly popular inner-suburban pet.

Jess

4 years old

She gives off “Elle Wood” – Legally Blonde vibes and she is totally okay with it! This fun, flirty, sweet girl is beauty and brains rolled into one and we know she is going to make a great family addition. We think she may suit children 10 and over and may also suit living with her own Bruiser– just as long as they are a little robust and happy to play. Her race name suggests ‘Nobody’s Perfect’ but Jess would probably tell you otherwise!

Axel

3 years old

Meet Axel, the coolest cat in town... er, greyhound! This confident and affectionate boy is ready to bust a move into your heart and home. With his playful and enthusiastic personality, Axel is always up for a good time - whether that's running, playing, or just hanging out with his favourite people. Axel may be best suited to a home with kids aged 10+ who can keep up with his energetic vibe. He's looking for a household where he's the only dog or with a medium to large dog that's just as cool as he is. Due to his lively nature, Axel requires a home with no old or frail dogs or people - he's got too much energy to tone down! If you're ready to partner up with a fun-loving greyhound, Axel might be the perfect fit. Let's get this party started! Axel has previously had a hock fracture, with hardware, that GAP have removed. This has healed well, and has no pain or lameness associated. Axel does have arthritis in this leg as a result of the fracture, which would benefit daily arthritis supplements.

Rattus Maximus

3 years old

No items found.
Have you ever seen a happier doggo? My Rattus Maxiums here is a simple lad that enjoys simple pleasures, sleep, walks, more sleep, gentle pats and splashing in the pool when its hot. He can be a little unsure of things at times but that will soon melt away as he learns all about the amazing things in pet life. We think he would be best in a home that is a little more relaxed and laid back so he can spend his days snoozing, enjoying the sunshine and a nice walk or two. He may also suit living with another canine friend of any size and children 10+ that are happy to give him space when needed.

Leroy

4 years old

Leroy may be greying out on his face before his time but he certainly has a lot of life yet to live, and we hope its with you! Leroy can be a sensitive boy at times and can sometimes be shy with new people but once he has met you a couple times his sweet, gentle, goofy side appears and you have a friend for life. Leroy has recently spent time with our Behaviour Team learning the ropes on how to socialise with other breeds of dogs and he is now ready to start his new adventure into pet life. We think he may suit living with children 10+ and with or without another medium or larger companion.
