Greyhound adoptions

We’re offering both pre-matched and on the day adoptions.

Pre-matched meet and greets:

1. Complete our online adoption form before the event telling us about your home and lifestyle. We’re keen to make sure we can find you and your family the perfect match.
2. The GAP team will review your application and match you with greyhound/s that best suit your needs.
3. Then all that's left to do is meet your potential new best friend at the event.

On the day adoptions

1. Take photos of your backyard and fencing to help us process your application on the day.
2. Join us at the event and chat with the GAP team about your family home and lifestyle.
3. We'll introduce you to some of our adoptable greyhounds and if you meet a greyhound you just can't leave without you can complete an application and adopt on the day.

Remember you’ll need photos of your backyard and fencing. We’ll help you complete the necessary paperwork on the day of the meet and greet.
