Greyhound Adoption Day in Centennial Park | Spring 2026 🌼🐕

Looking to adopt a greyhound in Sydney? Join Greyhounds As Pets NSW for a special Spring Greyhound Adoption Day at Musgrave Pond in Centennial Park on Saturday, 19 September 2026.

Meet beautiful greyhounds available for adoption in Sydney, enjoy plenty of pats and cuddles, and discover which gentle, affectionate greyhound could be the perfect match for your family.

Greyhounds make wonderful pets. They are generally calm, playful and affectionate, rarely bark, shed very little and have minimal doggy odour. Their relaxed nature makes them suitable companions for many different types of homes.

Finding Musgrave Pond

Centennial Parklands covers a large area, so we recommend planning your visit before the event. View the Centennial Parklands map to help you locate Musgrave Pond.

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.
