NEWCASTLE GREYHOUND ADOPTION DAY

This End of Summer Adoption Day is going to be the biggest we’ve ever had in Newcastle!

The whimsical, butterfly and flower-themed day is going to be a blast.

We are going to have about 40 greyhounds there on the day; some will even be dressed up, so expect lots of cuteness and ooh's and ahh's from the kids (and of course, the young at heart).

If you’ve been looking for that perfect greyhound, this is probably your best chance because the dogs we’re bringing have a wide variety of personalities, sizes and habits.

It is going to be more of a carnival than your regular adoption day, so be sure to bring the kids who will enjoy:

*FREE coat for every pooch adopted so you're all set for winter!

• A super creative balloon twist artist

• Face painting for the kids

• The beautiful flower wall

We’ll also have plenty of volunteers and greyhound experts ready to answer all your questions. Our team can talk you through what to expect from your pet greyhound, the gentle, loving nature of the breed, and explain why their general health is so good.

This is going to be a brilliant fun-filled family day out, so come on down to Hillsborough Showgrounds.

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.
