 The incredible quirky, funny, boisterous and thoroughly adorable Annie has officially joined our household

After a mere 5 weeks she has become central to our lives and routine, although she made herself at home immediately.  

She has mastered the stairs, claimed all the beds and is building up an enviable squeaky toy collection.  If she is not out on sniffari or stretching her legs at the local dog park, her favourite activities are charming everyone she meets, chasing her bouncy balls, snoozing near us, glued to our sides when not snoozing and prancing around displaying her favourite squeakies.  

Welcome home Anneekin Piestalker (aka, our gorgeous Annie), thanks for all the fun and happiness you bring

Thank you Savannah for fostering Annie

 Beautiful Iris loves her forever home in the Adelaide Hills. Iris’s foster parents fell in love with Iris but already have two greyhounds. They were determined to keep Iris in the family and drove her from Brisbane to Adelaide to be adopted by their Grandmother. 

Iris is happiest when she is in the company of her human and has been incredibly resilient to all the new changes in her life. She has even embraced the company of her  new sister, Jaffa, who is a cat! 

Thank you so much to the team at LAG who did so much to help Iris get to her forever home. She is very loved and an absolute delight

Flash joined us in the perfect timing to be a family member for Christmas.

He's a beautifully gentle boy who loves following us around the house, chasing a ball, snoozing and sneaking any treats he can from our toddler.

Flash is learning to master the stairs but he's at ease getting on the couch.

We feel very lucky to have found Flash

Thank you Tanya for fostering Flash

 Sally is a welcome addition to our pack. She is young, energetic and smoochy

She needs to learn that she is not the boss during walks because she is quite reactive to other dogs on leash. 

Sally has a fun and adventurous that has been demonstrated by sampling unripe blueberries from the blueberry bush. 

Thank you Love a Greyhound for the work that you do rescuing these dogs

Willow now Squirtle   

She’s amazing and so well adjusted and placid.

Willow is setting in so well. She sleeps at the end of my bed and rarely has sleep startle.

She gives me such joy when I see how bouncy and excited she gets before her walks and when she plays with her cuddlepillar.

Can't walk in a straight line ever and loves to pee on every bird poop she spots. But she's such a good girl on lead!

I get waggy tails and play nibbles and she is so gentle and kind to her two cat brothers, who have accepted her quite quickly.

I'm so glad she seems happy. She's the perfect girl and makes my heart swell with love.

Thankyou all. And Prad for getting her this far!

   Honey is definitely queen of the castle… she owns the couch and merely allows me to sit on it! 

She loves long walks around the block, stopping at her favourite neighbours homes for lots of ear scratches and pats. 
Honey loves to celebrate my homecoming by throwing her toys around, followed by throwing herself onto my bed! 

She has me completely wrapped around her finger when it comes to attention… if my attention is not on her, I will know about it! She’s perfected the nose nudge, the demanding paw and the guilt trip whine to notify me when I’m not patting her enough. 
Honey has settled in perfectly to my single millennial life and we make an amazing, unstoppable, very long team!

  We sure hope Tex is as happy in his new home as we are to have him here! He’s the most curious, happy and sociable guy, and loves making friends wherever he goes. 

Texas shows his love for his morning walks, adventures to the gym and beach, and his love for dogs and people, with his happy skips at every opportunity. 

We absolutely adore our gentle snuggle buddy, and look forward to seeing those happy skips every single day!

 We adopted this big beautiful gentleman 12 weeks ago.
We instantly lost our hearts (along with our couch and bed). 

He’s such a character and has us laughing often at his hilarious antics.
His gentle and loyal nature has won him many friends both human and canine alike.
He initially had some separation anxiety but that’s now abating that he’s feeling more secure. 

I highly recommend a greyhound for anyone considering adoption they provide such  great therapy and love. 

Thank you to Sam, Ethan, Peach & Bear for fostering Deeks

With Connie we were very lucky she didn’t have an issues with cats or small dogs and was the perfect fit for our family. 

And now she’s friends to 1 cat, 5 dachshunds and majority of the dogs she meets on her walks. 

Connie loves her early morning walks to the beach even though the first few times were scary. She took a while to get used to other dogs barking but eventually figured it all out She loves finding all the shoes in the house and adding them to her nest, never destroying or even marking them but Just looking after them for us! 

Connie was made to sleep in the middle of the bed between us and we wouldn't have it any other way. You have never seen a Zoomie until you have seen Connie zoom. Even if they are at 11pm or 4am, they put a smile on our faces! thanks so much to ‘love a greyhound’. We have definitely found our love for sweet Connie

Sweet little Sienna, now Chilli, has found her forever home with new pawrents, Chris and Nick, who say:

“Just writing to let you know that the new addition to the family (Sienna – now Chilli) has settled in, has the run of the house and us wrapped around her little paw! Why the name Chilli you ask? She is just SOOOOO chillaxed! She is lovely! She is the perfect dog. We couldn’t be more smitten!

I want to say a very big thankyou to Laura who was so helpful and accommodating through the whole process – we had lots of questions and Laura was always quick with a very helpful response to assist is navigating through our application and putting us in touch with the foster carer, Corry.

To Corry  - thankyou so so much. Corry is just the loveliest! It has been so good to be able to keep in touch with her to ask questions and to provide updates and photos of how Chilli has settled in. We are so very thankful for the job that she did with Chilli to get her ready to transition her into her new forever home.

They say it doesn’t take long for these lovely animals to grab your heart strings – well it was certainly love at first sight when we met Chilli. She is the centre of our universe and we are so incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to adopt such a beautiful natured, cheeky, goofy and inquisitive girl.

Thankyou to the team at Love a Greyhound, to Corry and all of the other foster carers – you all do such a wonderful and important job. It is very much appreciated.”

Bean is a beautiful addition to our family. 

Bean has a very bubbly and fun personality which we see more and more of as time goes on, she is energetic and playful at times but still loves a good nap and cuddle with the humans. 

Every adoption takes some getting used to but Bean is such a fast learner and has taught us a lot too! We couldn’t be happier.

“Diva’s personality matches her name perfectly, but we wouldn’t have it any other way! This sassy little lady stole out hearts from Day 1. 

Diva loves her burrowing into her donut bed, having snuggles on our bed, and getting comfy ‘her’ armchair. She is the most beautiful soul and we love her very much.

She enjoys lots of walks, visiting the office, belly rubs, and ripping all the stuffing out of her soft toys. Diva has shown a lot of progress with her triggers whilst out on walks, and I am so proud of her”

 Thank you Love a Greyhound for bringing Chai into our lives. He’s a big, goofy clown that won our hearts. 💖  We had no intention to foster fail but he was determined to make it happen and after four months he succeeded. 🤩🙌 Chai loves a road trip whether it’s 2 mins or 2 hours and has already been on a couple of weekend staycations. ☀️🧳🏖 He loves sniffari’s at the park, roaching on the lounge, and gives the best hugs. 🤗 We feel so lucky that Chai chose us and are looking forward to many years of fun, love, laughter and adventures with this big, lovable noodle! ♥️🐾🥰

Julie came to us last year in November, where she tested positive to heartworm.  Julie was in foster care for 5 months while she went through treatment with one of our wonderful foster careers Rohana.  Julie has now found her forever home and her family has sent us a lovely bio on how Julie is going in her new home 💖 🧡 Julie joined our little mother daughter duo a few months ago and has been the most wholesome addition to our family. Julie has transitioned into apartment living with ease. She’s completely toilet trained and only took a few days of training stairs to figure them out and gain her confidence. Her days are spent lounging around in her pjs and curled up with her soft toys.  Julie loves to go for a short stroll along the riverbank to get our morning coffee. She’s very social and will happily take a pat from anyone and everyone in sight. She’s made some other (younger) doggo friends who bring out a cheeky youthful side of her which is super sweet. She’s the most perfect girl and makes our hearts so happy ❤️ A message from Army (7yrs) - “Julie has comforted me, loved me and protected me. I am so thankful for her. 🧡 💕 The love a greyhound team would love to thank everyone who donated to Julie’s fundraiser and to Rohana who looked after who while undergoing treatment 💕  We test all dogs here at Love a Greyhound for heartworm before they go into foster care, if you are unsure if your dog has been tested get in touch with your adoption group to provide you with a vet certificate.

Gypsy, now Jem has been at our place for 6 weeks now. The bio on the website said that she would best live in a female household or with a patient male human.  Jem bonded with Claire pretty quickly and did not want to come near the male human and would go out of her way to avoid being close to me.  Slowly she got used to the humans sharing her space and eventually would allow the male human to approach, put collar and lead on and change her coat! Food has been a driver – realising who was providing the meals! She is much more relaxed and has been showing some cheekiness as well as playfulness, significant progress in a relatively short time 💕 Jem has been living up to greyhound standards – walk and then sleep for as long as possible and not too keen to get up in mornings – especially cold mornings. We enjoy having a companion for morning walks, giving her a cuddle or a pat, she also has a very gentle nature.  Thank you to Olivia and Tasma for fostering Gypsy.

Cossie, now named Cosmo has been a dream and starting to come out of his shell as the days go by 💞  He loves the beach and a good game of fetch and just like Forrest Gump he could walk all day.  Cosmo's been a great addition to our little family and are stoked to be able be a part of his retired life.

Handsome boy Dave (now Jasper) must have set a new record for finding a family. On his second day in foster care, he met his now forever family in Demi and Callum. It was just meant to be 🥰. They say:

“Jasper is doing so well. He is loving his daily walks, and wants to stop and say hello to everyone along the way.  He likes to collect all the toys and blankets at home and put them next to his bed.  As you know, he won us over straight away. I feel so lucky to have him in our life. I just love him so much!  Thank you, Laura, for all your help finding us the perfect match and answering all of my questions. Also thank you to Di for organising the meet up and giving us advice. Thank  you, Johanna, Alex and Suki , and Leigh and Kev for fostering beautiful Jasper.” It’s so lovely to see photos of this gorgeous boy settled into his new pet life! 💕

  The lovely Lola has found her happily ever after with Maggie and John. They say:  “Lola definitely chose us when we met her. It was love at first sight and we’ve fallen much more in love with her since coming home.  Lola fits into our little family like she always belonged. She’s become so much more confident and safe to explore! Lola loves her morning walks and wants to be best friends with everyone she meets and her favourite spot to snuggle is the corner of the couch.   Laura and LAG did such an amazing job rescuing her and getting her ready for her new life as a couch potato.”  Big thank you to Laura and foster sister Peanut for fostering Lola! We are so grateful to our amazing foster carers! 💕

Thank you so much for bringing Luna into our lives, she is the perfect fit and we are all smitten.   I have attached a photo from one of our morning walks, these two are always all smiles!”   Big thank you to Chantelle and Ash, and Shay and Allan for fostering Sandy!

Lilly is the most gorgeous cowhound.  Sally and Lilly get along well and are enjoying the backyard to play in, but mostly sleeping during the day.  Lilly has mastered the stairs and dog door and has come so far in a very short space of time.  It’s such a joy to see these two playing together and enjoying life as very loved pets.  Lilly has even taught Sally to play fetch! 💕

   From the day I was put on to Flash’s foster home (and mum!), to a playful first meet and greet, to taking him home and trying to provide him with a happy-ever-after I have to first acknowledge LAG’s responsiveness, care and support throughout the process 💕   I initially planned to adopt through a different animal rescue organisation in Brisbane that was recommended by a friend, but accidentally stumbled on to LAG through the SavourLife page.   I also didn’t plan on adopting a Greyhound either! But, frankly there has been a flow to having Flash enter my life and more than anything else he reminds me to be a better human every day. I never anticipated that I would look forward to waking up at 5:30am every morning for sprint training, but Flash has taught me the importance of several downward dogs and at least one ‘cobra’ pose before walking out the door! 🐶💕   Thank you Dianne for fostering Flash.

Handsome boy Isaac has been adopted by team member Jo, & Barry.  

Words from Jo & Barry:-  He is a big boy but ever so gentle and sweet.  He wakes me up in the morning by placing his head on my chest and snuggling into my neck.  He is a very gentle and cuddly boy.

He took a couple of weeks to adjust to a new routine and to start sleeping past 4.30am!

He loves to follow you everywhere and to know whats going on.  He is a very smart boy.  He can open the baby gates in the house if they are not locked in.  Even if they don't swing the right way he knows how to get his paw and open it.  I'm out he says!  None of my other greyhounds has ever worked that one out!

He loves food and toys and sleeping and playing.  He's a big puppy at heart.

He is with his litter siter Migaloo and his mother Lizzie among our other greys.  He fits in perfectly.   Barry said Isaac is the quickest that he's ever fallen in love with one of our dogs.

We just love this breed!

💓 Sienna & Remi 💓  We welcomed Gracie & Heidi (formally Sienna and Remi) into our lives 3 weeks ago and never doubted that they had found their forever home.   They immediately stole our hearts (as well as our bed, couch, kids toys…etc.), and are much needed and loved additions to our family.   Gracie is a sweet and gentle soul who loves her cuddles, until she’s in the mood for zoomies and likes to boss her new sister around the yard.   Heidi has needed a little extra TLC to overcome some mild anxiety but is transitioning well into pet life. She is a quiet and loving girl who shows her cheeky side whenever she can steal a stuffed toy or two. Thank you to LAG for giving us our new little shadows.

She is very brave and nothing scares her, although she is a very sensitive soul. Up for an adventure any day of the week.

 Biscuit has been an absolute joy to add to my house and it has been amazing to watch her grow in confidence since moving in.  She loves nothing more than her early morning walkies, chasing balls and trying her best to catch bush turkeys, roaching all over the house and couch cuddles.  She is a sweet, loving dog who is a sucker for stealing a scritch or two off strangers whenever she is out and my life is so much better with her in it  Thank you to Amelia and Joel for fostering Biscuit 💕

Butler has been a joy added to our household, he is learning and progressing in training everyday- he now knows ‘back, leave it, settle’ and recall is getting better.  Our dainty almost 9 year old Amy is teaching him that being too boisterous is not appreciated, especially at almost 40 kgs, but all little brothers can be annoying sometimes.   Everyone loves interacting with him and some of his favourite treats are kangaroo, frozen peas, sardines and we are exploring new foods every day.   Thank you to Rhonda and Pieter for Fostering Butler and getting him ready for pet life 💞

  Bailey is now ‘Rooey’ because he bounds everywhere like a kangaroo - into the car for adventures, up and down the open back yard stairs, and across the yard while doing zoomies.  He has settled in and stolen our hearts, originally planned to be a temporary foster for the christmas period but that plan was quickly thrown out the window the minute he came over and leant on us for big smoochy pats.  If he’s not out for a walk around his new neighbourhood he is generally roaching. In fact he probably spends about 90% of his time upside down! He has been a huge help with some of our renovations too - truly making his mark by adding some Rooey shaped painted paw prints to some of the pavers in the courtyard.   Thank you so much to @greyhound_fosterfamilylove for fostering Bailey 💞

“ Lana is loving her life as a pet. She gets silly at about 5am when our alarms go off and loves her morning walks. 🐾

Usually comes back and has a little nap before her breakfast. Throughout the day she's staked claim to an outside couch, preferring to stay outside even though we invite her in when we leave for work. 🛋 

When we get home she goes bonkers again and we get big tail wags. She's a big fan of her longer afternoon walks and is starting to learn her surroundings and different paths we take her on. ☀️

We love her so much, thank you! “ 🥰

We absolutely adore our little Daisy girl. Thank you for matching us up with her. “ 🥰

Stunning Goldie has found her forever home and has been aptly renamed Sunshine ☀️ Some words from her new family:

We're so happy to welcome Sunshine Goldilocks into our lives. She is such a gentle, sweet, friendly, happy soul. 

She has settled in so well to pet life at our house,  she loves the big bed, her toys, and the garden, although she has been a little over enthusiastic her prunning skills on some of my pot plants! 🙈

She's slowly mastering the stairs going up is now a breeze coming down is taking a bit more time. 

Sunshine loves long walks on the beach and paddles in the sea, she also loves walks in the country spotting wallabies 🦘

She still needs a bit more work on her lead walking skills because everything outside is just so darn exciting! 🤩

Sunshine is coming out of her shell more and more every day, it is beautiful to watch her transformation. 

We're so in love with her already! It's wonderful to have such a gorgeous golden girl to share our lives with! We're looking forward to many happy years of adventures together. 💗

Congratulations Sunshine ☀️You can follow all her new adventures on her very own insta page @sunshinethegreyhound 💞

Quirky little girl Tigger has been adopted. Some words from her new family Angie, Rob and Laura:

We have had our determined quirky girl Tigger for close to 5 weeks now and she is settling in with us very well. After tunnelling under the side fence the other week, she hasn’t shown any signs of doing that again....I think it may have scared her a bit. Lucky our neighbour 2 doors up was home and kept her safe and well for us. She still gets super excited to put the leash on and then retreat back to the front door after about 2 metres outside! We will get there, once she has gotten used to all the noises and feels comfortable as she is still quite timid, but very friendly with visitors. She has now stopped repositioning everyone’s thongs, runners and stuffed toys, but still trots around with her own (everyone in the family has bought her one or two). She is such a lovely natured girl, loves to be patted and likes to talk when you get home. She is still amazing us with the various sleeping positions she gets into, sometimes I forget she is a greyhound as our old boy would never have been able to position himself like she does.

LOL, she does have the perfect name, as she is a bit of a Tigger, bouncing and all at times and she does know that is her name. We are blessed to have her in our family and have to remind her at times she is a Princess, not the Queen!

We look forward to joining everyone for a walk in the new year once she has discovered that walking is quite enjoyable and adventurous.

Sweet soul Happy has been adopted and now goes by Keith. Some words from Keiths new family:❤️

Keith Jagger has been with us a month now and is loving his new life.

At first he was quite shy, but he quickly felt part of the family and has no trouble expressing himself - especially when he is hungry or wants a walk.

He enjoys going out to the park or the beach - anywhere where there are other dogs to sniff and play with. We have to keep him on a lead though as every now and then he gets excited and shows how quick and powerful he can be.

At home he loves cuddles and playing with the kids. He's very calm around people and never barks or gets excited when he meets someone new.

He spends a lot of the day sleeping and chilling out - he's fine on his own for a few hours. The exception is mealtimes when he can get a bit insistent, but maybe that's beacuse the food is so delicious. He doesn't eat everything we try but eggs, melon, sweet  potatoes and carrots disappear as soon as they hit the bowl. He's lean now, but maybe he will put on a few pounds over the next year.

Wow Keith, sounds like it’s been a busy month of all these fun new experiences. Congrats on finding your forever family 💞

Big goofball Dublin has been adopted 💙

Some words from Dublins new family: 

We love our Dubby. He is settling in very well in his new home, and is already being spoilt rotten. 

We think Dublin is the most handsome greyhound ever. He is a very confident and inquisitive boy, he nearly jumping off a jetty the other day to catch some fish! Dublin loves to play fetch and has learnt to sit and stay.

Dublin loves his walks, so much so that he wakes us up at 5:30 every morning to go on one. He is getting much better on the lead and is still learning how to properly greet other dogs.

When Dublin’s at home he’s an absolutely sweetie. He already has many aliases including the rat boy, the B1 battle droid, the pelican, the kangaroo and the stinky slinker. 

We’re so happy we found our Dubster. He has already given us so many laughs and is everything we could have hoped for!

Like some of our boys Dublin waited a while for his forever home but wow did he find his perfect home 🏡

Big thanks to @greyhound_fosterfamilylove for fostering this loveable  boy!

Do you know what’s better than having one foster fail? A second foster fail 💞

You may remember, Ivy who was renamed Elsa after being foster failed a few months ago by one of our long time foster carers Nick. Well with the help of Hema they have done it again and have adopted foster boy Johnny who is now called Sven🐄🐄

Some words from Nick and Hema on their latest addition: Beautiful boy Johnny is a foster fail and has been renamed Sven. 

Sven has loved meeting his sister Elsa (another LAG pup) and they have become an inseparable pair of little moo cows 🐄💕

Sven has adjusted to pet life with ease and has embraced new experiences such as stairs, jumping onto the bed and swimming at the beach. He is a gentle giant who is happiest curled up on the couch in the lap of his new Mum and Dad. 

Sven hasn’t let pannus in his eyes stop him from seeing the world and is very stylish in his new doggles. 

Thank you LAG for bringing him into our lives. 💖 Nick, Hema, Elsa & Sven 🐾 

Just the cutest duo, and our hearts really melted over these photos. Thank you Nick and Hema for all you’ve done in your fostering journey with LAG 🐶 We wish you all lots on happiness as a family of four 🐾🐶💓

Xenas new mum recently had a chest infection but nurse Xena was by her side the whole time, snoozing the day away being a loyal companion. Hounds really just are so special 🥰

Duchess has been adopted!

Some words from her new family: We knew the second we met Duchess that we wanted to adopt her, and 3 days later we did!

It took even less time for Dutchie to settle into our family! She enthusiastically greets us at the door when we return from work or school, loves watching tv with us on the couch or playing fetch in the yard, in fact the only time we don't have a doggy shadow is when she's asleep (though she will try and sneak onto our beds if she can 😂)

We are so thrilled that we chose Dutch, and she chose us, and now we get to see first-hand how awesome life is with a greyhound 🥰

Congratulations Duchess, you have landed on all four paws with your loving new family 🥰

Huge thank you to David, Debbie and @polothehound for fostering this gorgeous girl 💓

Handsome blue boy Zayd who now goes by Jasper has been adopted 💖 Here are a few words from Jaspers new family:

Jasper has fit in to our family so perfectly. He has his designated spot on the couch where he loves to curl up into an awkward little ball. 

His permanent puppy dog eyes make it very hard to ever say no and he loves to be apart of whatever is going on around the house. He’s reaching a healthy weight and we are yet to find a vegetable he doesn’t like to snack on 🥕🥦

We have pleasant daily walks through the park where Jasper doesn’t pull or get overly excited. He gets along well with our dog Monty and all the other dogs he has met so far. He’s definitely won over the hearts of all the humans who’ve had the pleasure of meeting him too. Having never owned a greyhound before we have loved discovering the quirky little traits they have and hope that more people open their homes to this often misunderstood breed 🐶

Congratulations Jasper on finding your home 🏡 Thank you to Mia and family for fostering this boy and helping him get ready for pet life 🐶

He loves his daily walks by the river, food, zoomies through the house and playing with his squeaky toys. He is a social boy that loves a good car ride and meeting new people and of course dogs. He brings us so much joy to our lives and make us laugh every day. He is indeed our "BUDDY".

We love going on big long walks to the beach where Bluey makes lots of friends along the way. He loves tennis balls and a game of fetch in our yard. He’s even figured out how to play fetch by himself, which is quite a sight. 😂 He of course loves his sleep and cuddles too. 

He has a beautiful nature and we are so grateful to you for matching us with him and taking care of him.

Going for walks to the beach or park are her daily highlights and she makes lots of friends wherever she goes.

We hope her response with her little chattering teeth when we are talking to her, along with her insisting to either rest one of her paws or head on us when she is by our side is an indication of the reciprocated love she feels for us.

Kobe is a real cuddle bug and loves to sit on your lap, or stand right in front of you for a pat. He loves playing with toys, and he especially loves balls of any type, especially if they squeak (although the squeaker never survives long). 

He has bonded with his fur-sibling Kiki, and they play together and do zoomies down the hallway in the mornings.

We are so happy for Kobe who struggled with separation anxiety in the beginning and grateful to Olivia and Tasma for making space in their heart and home for him 💞
