We Need Homes

Please check this page regularly for new dogs.

Here is a selection of the greyhounds available for adoption. 

Not all greyhounds make it to our website – some are rehomed from the kennels – so we would encourage you to send an application and we can chat about a hound that’s best for you! 
Please note however – at present – we are only able to rehome our greyhounds within the South Island.

SUGAR

5 Years Old

HOMEBUSH SUGAR

Sugar, as her name suggests, really is the sweetest 5 year soul you ever did meet and has a huge fanbase in the rehoming community.  She has experienced many events with the rehoming team and has loved being a part of the pats and attention.

Sugar is a quiet, sensitive, very affectionate girl who does enjoy playtime with her toys but most definitely prefers to sunbathe.  In full sun - so if that’s your thing too she’s going to be right there with you.  She is very kind and considerate with children that are respectful of her and she does enjoy their company.

Sugar likes a low maintenance lifestyle thankyouverymuch, while she does enjoy a couple of short walks a day she is not a dog who enjoys off lead activities, dog parks and such.  She prefers one on one or with a close friend. 

She would make a wonderful companion if there was a bachelor hound out there looking for a quirky, fun, sensitive young lady for quiet strolls and an easy retirement. Equally though we feel she would be quite happy as an only child, she is likely to park up and follow the sun around your home until you return from work.

She is polite and social and very much wants to please her people.  Sugar would prefer a hound or dog savvy home that understands her needs.

As amazing as Sugar is she is NOT suited to a home with cats.

Thanks to Craig from Furtography  for taking this spectacular image of Sugar for her profile.

WAYNE

3 Years Old

UNRACED

Wayne is a happy go lucky sensitive and polite young man who is just a bit of a goof! He is exceptionally polite with humans and shows great manners. He is responsive to his handlers and forms a great bond with them.

He is curious, polite and social with other dogs and would make a wonderful companion for an existing dog - he is more of a follower than a leader, Wayne has attended events with us and has shown to be bright, engaging and fun - he positively laps up the attention and enjoys getting out and about.

Wayne is currently in foster with two greyhounds and they are getting on well - the girl especially loves him. We think he would be suitable for a home with older children that will respect him and know when he needs time out.

As amazing as Wayne is, he is NOT suited to a home with cats.

Thank you to Craig from Furtography for his adoption shoot.

DAVID

5 Years Old

KIRKBY

David (Kirkby) is 5 years old and a happy, bright, engaging social butterfly who wants to be everyone’s best friend!
 
David is a bright boy who gets a lot of enjoyment from enrichment toys and puzzles to make him think. He has good lead and walking manners and really enjoys getting out and about - he is very confident within himself he can be excitable and a bit silly and can be easily influenced so would do well with a sensible dog friend.
 
He will need a strong handler, who is kind and patient but firm - if you give him an inch he can be a cheeky lad and will try and take the mile.
 
Currently in foster with a girl greyhound, David gets on with her very well and is settling into foster like a pro. While David does enjoy activity, he also values napping in equal measure and chills beautifully with this little foster family.
David, would enjoy the company of children very much but they should be over 10 years old due to his bouncy and effervescent nature but he is also can be a sensitive, affectionate and very empathetic soul who will want to come close by and just hang with you if you need it.

David is NOT able to live with a cat.
