Greyhounds make incredible companions. They’re sweet, soulful, silly, loving, many are active spring beans and others are couch potatoes. There's a greyhound for every home.

This International Dog Day, we’re thinking about Millie and Tommy, still waiting for foster or forever homes, and the many greyhounds on our waiting list who are waiting for their turn.

If you can’t foster, you can still help us reach someone who can 👇

Tommy is currently in foster care and is a cuddly, 4 year old, happy boy who loves people and other dogs.

He needs a new foster carer and would love to be fostered by an active person/family.

Foster Carer Needed 🙏

7 year old Millie needs your help.
She is in need of a foster carer who doesn’t have any pets of their own.
She adores people but doesn’t want to share her space with other pets.

Does this sound like your home? Are you able to help Millie by fostering her until her forever human comes along?

Recently adopted Eggs is 40kg and with his long, black legs he is very appreciative of his tall drinking station from Boujee Bowl

And so nice of him, to share with foster boy, Rocky, who was very keen to have a tall drink of water too 💦

Meet 4 year old Beau: white and blue, ridiculously handsome and a firm believer that personal space is overrated. 😂 Winning hearts is what Beau is ridiculously good at.

Our affectionate boy loves following his foster humans around the house, keeping tabs on whatever they’re doing and, most importantly, making himself available for snuggles at all times. He understands the importance of his human’s cuddle metre being full at all times.

Beau also loves a good game of ball and will happily run after it and bring it back so the fun can continue. He’s curious about the world, enjoys being involved in family life. 🥰 He walks nicely on lead and has an endearing habit of leaning in close to his human along the way, just in case you needed any further proof that this boy really does love his humans.

We’re so proud of Beau, he’s blossomed into a fun, loving companion with plenty of personality and an enormous amount of affection to give. Beau has the cuddles. You have the couch. Seems like an obvious next step is to apply to adopt him!

There’s a lot of personality tucked behind those magnificent ears. 🥹

A few weeks into foster care, 5 year old Vera is feeling more at home and letting her cheeky little side shine through. She’s mastered the dog door, become very attached to her Cuddlepillar and likes to conduct a thorough inspection of every available bed when her foster carer Kris heads out. 😂

Vera has also been enjoying life beyond the house, socialising positively with dogs big and small and having some lovely playdates. She recently joined her GSN friends at the Jells Park Greyhound Walk too, happily strolling along with the group and enjoying the company. 💕

Vera will soon be adoptable, so keep your eyes peeled. 🙏 If you’d like to make a difference in a dog’s life, consider fostering a greyhound.

A triple serve of cuteness:

Introducing 6 year old Annie, 4 year old Teddy and 1.5 year old Rocky who have joined the GSN foster program.

😍 Sweet lady and brindle babe Annie is settling in well to foster and enjoying the perks of pet life.

🍤 Fawn prawn Teddy is a lovely, gentle guy who’s a little shy, but he’s learning that the world can be full of snacks, kind hands and kind hearts.

🥹 White and brindle baby, Rocky is settling into home life with kids, and cats. He’s got such an enthusiastic wag, that a case of happy tail means he now sports an adorable little stump. Rocky is also Paige's 20th foster 🥳

Thinking about fostering a greyhound? 🙏 Your home could be the stepping stone they need on the way to their forever family.

Thank you to Houndtees for gifting GSN a generous $1,000. This is who it's helping:

Our gummy 6 year old brindle princess, Cuddles has had quite the run of things recently.

Our sweet girl first needed extensive dental work, including 22 teeth extracted 💔 After our gummy girl recovered from surgery, Cuddles developed a limp, and was treated for a suspected spider bite that progressed to cellulitis. 😔 She needed several days in hospital and had our team more than a little worried.

We’re very happy to say that Cuddles has made a full recovery and is back to enjoying life. 🥰 Our bank balance, however, could still use a little suppawt.

The $1,000 grant from Hound-Tees will go directly towards paying off some of Cuddles’ veterinary expenses, and we’re incredibly grateful for their support. Thank you to the crew at Hound-Tees and everyone who nominated and voted for us 🙌

If you’d also like to support our ongoing work caring for greyhounds like Cuddles, donations of any size make a difference 🔗 Link in comments!
