Pet of the Week – Jordy

By Natalie | Published: July 15, 2019

Hi, I’m Jordy! I’m a big loveable guy with a BIG loveable personality! I’m a goofy athletic type looking for someone who likes to zoom about as much as I do. I loooove toys, showing off, having fun, and any bit of excitement really. I’d best be suited to a home without anything small and fluffy and older kiddies only (it’s not that I don’t like little tots but I get so excited so I might knock them over). If you’re looking for a four-legged personal trainer, I might be your guy! I just love getting out and about to stretch my legs – I’ll have you fit in no time!

Burger

By Natalie | Published: July 5, 2019

Hi there, I’m Burger! Yes, that’s right, the name’s Burger! I hear lots of people talking about where to get the best Burger – it’s at Greyhound Rescue of course! As you would expect, with a name like mine – I’m a fun-loving dude who just adores my toys and getting lots of attention from the volunteers. I also enjoy the company of other greyhounds… I’m just not that into those small dogs, so none of those at your place, please! Read More »

Elvis

By Natalie | Published: July 5, 2019

Hi there, I’m Elvis and I’ve been busy styling my ‘Elvis quiff’ so I can keep one ear out for my forever home! I’m a fun-loving kind of guy, when I’m not asking for a good scratch behind the ear, you’ll find me running around with a toy. Obviously, I like the company of other greyhounds – just not too keen on those small fluffy things they call dogs (what are those anyway?!) so best there’s none of those at your place! Read More »

Shelby

By Natalie | Published: July 1, 2019

Hello! I’m Shelby and I’m a fun-loving girl with plenty of personality! I’m a bit of a fitness enthusiast, who’s always excited to get out and about. I would love a home with loads of toys to play with and a backyard to stretch my legs so I can do a zoomie or two. I’d do best in a family without really young kiddies (just because I get a bit excited) and with no small-fluffy dogs… but if you’ve got a big dog friend for me, that’ would be just greyt!

Mango

By Natalie | Published: June 30, 2019

Hello! I’m Mango and I’m every bit as sweet as everyone’s favourite summer treat! Someone said I was a bit of a princess (rude!) because I love being the centre of attention, and I’m not really big on sharing my toys and treats (can you blame me?), so a family without other pets would be best. When you meet me though, you’ll see I just relish the attention and get really happy when the focus is on me! Once I’m done with the excitement though, I’m happy to snooze the day away.

Clifford (on trial)

By Natalie | Published: June 30, 2019

Hi, I’m Clifford! I’m an extra special boy looking for an extra special home. I wasn’t in the best condition when I arrived here at GR, and I had to have lots of my teefs removed because they were causing me lots of pain. I’m all healed up now, but I’ll a family that can help me keep the ones I have left extra clean with daily care. I also have early onset cataracts. I can see almost perfectly now, but this will get a little worse over time as I get older. Now that all that stuff’s out of the way, I can tell you that I’m a really affectionate and VERY lazy boy… seriously, if you have a comfy bed for me I’m happy to lay there for hours! So if you think you’re the very special home that I’m looking for, I’d be the happiest boy ever – and I’ll reward you with a big snaggle-toothy smile!

Winnie (on trial)

By Natalie | Published: June 29, 2019

Hi there, I’m Winnie and although I can be a little shy at first I’m getting used to all this love and attention from the volunteers! I definitely won’t say no to a good ear scratch if you’re offering. I get along with most other friendly big dogs – but I especially love the company of the other boy greyhounds here at GRHQ, we have such a hoot together when we play!

Valerie

By Natalie | Published: June 29, 2019

Hello! I’m Valerie. I’m sweet, playful little girl – if you can throw a tennis ball for me you’ll have a friend for life! When I’m not chasing balls around, you won’t find me too far away from the nearest humans to ask for a good ear scratch! When it comes to the company of other dogs, I definitely prefer the fellas… maybe you’ve got a friend for me who’s a fetch enthusiast too?

R.B. – ‘Red Bandanna’

By Natalie | Published: June 28, 2019

Hi there! I’m Red Bandanna or R.B. for short. They tell me I’ve been named after a man who wears a red bandana, that writes a lot of important things to help hounds like me that need a home… I don’t know who this man is, but he sounds just greyt to me!

I’m a super-friendly girl who’s been great with everyone I’ve met – humans and greyhounds, but if you’ve got a friend for me – I’d like to meet them first. Not to toot my own horn too much, but I’m all-round sweet and affectionate girl with plenty of love to give… and if you had room on your couch for me, I wouldn’t say no to that either!
