Bat
Hits: 1231
Racing name: N/A Whelped: March 2008 Colour: black Sex: female Weight: approx 27kg Cat tolerant: needs further assessment Available: NOW
** RESERVED FOR HER NEW HOME **
Bat is a litter sister to Penny (Sierra Sunset) who now has a home in Canberra. Bat has an excellent appetite and will eat most things, but prefers meat / pasta/ dog roll to boring old dry dog food (can you blame her?). She is a strong dog on the lead but can learn to walk at heel nicely with a few reminders. Bat is an energetic girl who would love to be adopted into an active family with school aged children and (ideally) another doggy playmate.
Sasha

Racing name: Iterate Whelped: Nov 2008 Sex: female Colour: fawn Weight: approx 28kg Cat tolerant: not yet tested Available: Dec
** I'M CHECKING OUT MY NEW HOME TO SEE IF I LIKE IT **
Fun-loving, waggy-tailed Sasha has just come into foster care and has decided she really likes the indoor life! She is an enthusiastic girl and is currently learning to walk without pulling on the lead. Sasha is a natural sitter (uncommon in the Greyhound breed) although she doesn’t quite understand what the word “sit” means as yet. She has an excellent appetite and is very clean. She would suit an active family with older children or teenagers to play with.
Pirate

Racing name: N/A Whelped: May 2010 Sex: male Colour: white & black Weight: 31kg Cat tolerant: no Available: Feb
Pirate is a very sociable young male who is everyone’s friend. He is still at the awkward goofy teenage stage but is learning quickly. Pirate would be best suited to a home with regular human contact – perhaps a family with school aged children. He gets on well with dogs of all sizes.

Rebus

Racing name: N/A Whelped: July 2006 Sex: male Colour: black Weight: 33kg Cat tolerant: no Available: NOW
Rebus and his best friend Zoe have been much loved pets for the past 3 years. Their owners have decided to move back to Canada and cannot afford to take the dogs with them. Rebus is a SNAG (sensitive new age Greyhound) who does best with company (human &/or doggy). He is used to being largely an indoor dog. He would suit a home with adults only or with teenage children. If possible, we would like to see Zoe & Rebus go to a forever home together.

Zoe and her best mate Rebus have been much loved pets for the past 3 years. Their owners have decided to move back to Canada and cannot afford to take the dogs with them. Zoe is an outgoing, confident, happy girl who will adapt easily into a new home. She is used to being an indoor dog most of the time & will be happiest if she can continue her life of luxury. If possible, we would like to see Zoe & Rebus go to a forever home together
