❤️ Give a Greyhound the Best Gift of All - A Home
This Christmas, many loving Greyhounds are waiting in kennels, hoping for a family to call their own.
Gentle, affectionate, and deeply loyal, Greyhounds make truly extraordinary companions for anyone wanting to bring more love into their home.
They’re calm, quiet, low-maintenance, and happiest when curled up on a soft couch beside the people they love.
This holiday season, you can change a Greyhound’s life forever.

Special 2 Day Event

Day 1: Adoption Day - Saturday 13 December
Our biggest day of the year. Meet wonderful, pet-ready Greyhounds who are ready to go home with you on the day.

Special Christmas Adoption Rates:
  • Greyhounds Under 7: $150 (normally $250)
  • Sweet Seniors 7+: $75 (normally $150)
Bring the whole family, even your current dog! We'll help facilitate safe meet-and-greets to ensure the perfect match.

Day 2: Foster Day - Sunday 14 December
For Greyhounds who don’t find their forever families on Saturday, Sunday is dedicated to helping them find loving foster homes for the holidays.

Even a short-term foster placement:
  • Helps them learn home life
  • Dramatically boosts their chances of being adopted
  • Means they don’t spend Christmas alone
If you can open your home, even for a few weeks, you can make a life-changing difference. We provide everything you need and will fully support you throughout the foster period. If you’d like to learn more about fostering ahead of the event, please visit: https://www.gapnsw.com.au/foster 


Why are Greyhounds the Perfect Pet?
  • Rarely bark (great for neighbours)
  • Wonderful with both kids and adults
  • Calm, gentle, loving personalities
  • Low-maintenance and easy to care for
  • Minimal shedding & no doggy smell
  • Lovely with other pets
  • Enjoy simple daily walks
  • You become part of a huge wonderful Greyhound community in NSW
They don’t need a lot of space, just love, kindness, and a soft place to rest.

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.
