OUR STORIES

Greyhounds have rapidly become one of the most popular pets in country, and you can rarely walk the suburban streets of Sydney or NSW regional areas, without coming across someone with a collar and lead on one of these beautiful animals. And while mums and dads, singles and families are all discovering what loving pets greyhounds are, these adorable dogs have also won the hearts of many celebrities and sporting stars. GAPNSW is fortunate that a number of those have agreed to become ambassadors and share their stories and love for greyhounds.
