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.

WAYNE

3 Years Old

UNRACED

Wayne is a happy go lucky, sensitive and fun loving,  3 year old young man!  He is polite and very affectionate with humans,  and forms a great bond with his people.

 

He has good lead manners, he enjoys getting out and about.  Wayne is also curious but polite and friendly with other dogs and enjoys their company.  He would make a wonderful companion for an existing dog and is also more of a follower than a leader and shows all the potential to be an existing dogs best friend.

 

Wayne is currently in foster with another greyhound (girl) and kids.  Wayne really enjoys their company and would love a family of his own with kids that are respectful of him.

 

As amazing as Wayne is, he is NOT suitable for a home with cats.

SCAR

5 Years Old

SCARDINY

We have been so impressed with the magnificence that is Scar (Scardiny) that we thought we would reintroduce him to you again.

Scar has settled into foster like a pro - he's still an absolute delight to have around and his somewhat cheeky personality has emerged.  He still really enjoys his toys (most have been desqueaked now) and is happy go lucky, kind, calm and really is one of the very goodest of good boys.

He has attended several events with us recently and is a wonderful ambassador for his breed - he has been polite, engaging and really enjoys getting out and about and meeting new people.

Scar gets on with his foster sister (another greyhound) brilliantly and would make a wonderful companion for another dog of similar size/energy levels - he is also a true 'cuddle bug' and while he enjoys nothing more than a snuggle on the couch he is independent also.

He has excellent housekeeping skills, he keeps his bedding and covers exceptionally clean and neat, can we also mention he has the cutest little 'derp' imaginable!

Scar would make a wonderful addition to a family, he is great with kids but we feel due to his size he would be better suited if they are over 8 years old - he also really enjoys a solid game of fetch as you will have seen in our previous videos.

As amazing as Scar is he is NOT suitable to a home with cats.

CROSS

2 Years Old

UNRACED

Cross is just 2 years old and such a wee pumpkin.  She can be shy initially but once she gets to know you she’s an absolute delight and a joy to be around, she is calm and empathetic .

While Cross is a quiet wee dot, she is polite and social in every way.  She has excellent manners meeting other dogs, she is very responsive to her handlers and very trainable.  Her lead manners are excellent and she does like to stop for a cheeky wee cuddle along the way, she is showing she has great recall.  Cross has a massive heart and just wants to be friends with those she meets.

She will ever so slowly and softly climb up you and you will receive the softest, gentlest cuddles you are ever likely to have!  Cross is wonderful, kind and gentle with kids that are respectful of her and she really enjoys their company.

Her house keeping skills are on point - she shows great respect for her bedding and toys.  A wee bit of a foodie, Cross has shown that she is not a fussy girl and has great food manners.

Cross is currently in foster with another greyhound, and they are getting on well.  Cross is very much a follower not a leader.  We feel that Cross would love the company of another dog of similar size/energy levels  OR that there was someone home for part of the day.

We have saved the very best bit for last:  If she wasn’t amazing enough Cross IS cat trainable!!!

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

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.
