WINTER ADOPTION DAY - WITH TIM CAHILL

He is an Australian sporting icon, a legend of the game and considered by many as our greatest male footballer. But Tim Cahill is also a greyhound lover who has adopted from Greyhounds As Pets, so who better to be on hand to showcase what will be our largest greyhound adoption day ever?

Tim - who has been a GAP Ambassador for the past four years - will be making one of his rare visits to Australia coinciding with the Women’s World Cup, and he will be on hand at Gough Whitlam Park at Earlwood on Sunday, August 13, along with more than 60 of our wonderful greyhounds. Just a short walk from Tempe station.

It will be a huge day and we encourage everyone to join us, to not only see Tim and get an autograph or photo, but also ask any questions of our GAP staff about the adoption process, and then possibly head home with an additional member to your family.

All adopters on the day will also receive a lead, collar, worming treatment, and detailed information about their new greyhound's history and unique personality, and as always you will have the full support of our GAP team both during and after the adoption process. 

Please register your interest below to receive the exclusive Dogologue, featuring profiles of all of our greyhounds.

See you on August 13 between 10am and 3pm.




Greyhound Adoption Days

The best chance to get to know your new best friend. Our dog adoption days let you meet all types of greyhounds with unique personalities. We promise that you’ll fall in love with at least one special friend following a session of patting, cuddling and scratching at a pet adoption day. Learn everything that you need to know about the adoption journey and get a feel for which pet might be the best fit for your family.

We place greyhounds in homes based on their personality so everyone gets a perfect match. Feel free to ask away and our friendly team will answer all of your questions. A dog adoption day with Greyhounds As Pets is the first step towards bringing a four-legged friend into your life.

Pre-Assessment Days

We hold pre-assessment days that will determine whether your greyhounds are suitable for life as a pet and entry into the GAP program . To be eligible, we’ll ask for proof of C5 vaccinations and at least a 4 week let down period after their last race/trial. A general details form will also need to be completed and returned to us before confirming any future appointments.

Please contact our team for further information on booking a pre-assessing session.
