Alex now Lando

Lando has well and truly become an integral part of our family.

Everyone he has met he surprises with his size and with the amount of love he wants to give them. He is so loveable and has settled into his routine and our daily lives with ease. It is amazing to see Lando’s personality show more with how happy, playful and easy going he is.

Thank-you to Gavin and his crew for fostering Alex.

Thank you so much for bringing Billy into our lives, we’ve never owned or met anyone with a greyhound before but cannot believe what a perfect fit he’s been for our house! You really picked the best boy for us – low fuss, obedient & a gentle personality. He bounces like a pogo stick with excitement at the door to greet us, enjoys his morning stroll (1km) before work, lazes around all day & then has zoomies & playtime when we’re home. He loves nothing more than being inside with us resting his head on your legs and getting pats of a night before bed & has become a fan of aircon!

We are so happy to welcome special Tiny Boy into our hearts and lives.

 It hasn't been an easy journey with Tiny as he suffers from severe anxiety but with a lot of patience, love and perseverance he is slowly becoming a happier more relaxed hound. 

Tiny loves his bossy big sister Sunshine, she is the happiest, relaxed hound and has taught Tiny a few tricks on how to adjust to pet life. 
I am so proud of Tiny he has graduated from a 7-week intense obedience training course and has done very well for himself.
He walks wonderfully on the lead and does not react to other people or dogs.

His favourite pastimes are going for walks, especially down the beach, playing with his sister, cuddling with Mom and his favourite is swimming in the pool. He is still learning to swim but pops in for a paddle at every opportunity on the hot days.
Our little family is complete with the addition of Tiny in our lives. Thank you, Jo, for sharing two of your beautiful greyhounds with us, we love them to bits.

Since day one April has been absolutely wonderful to have around. 

She melts hearts when she hops around in excitement when someone comes home. She loves nothing more than to sleep in her many beds, but when she is awake she's a curious and kind hound who lights up the room with her personality. A big thank you to Love a Greyhound for making this adoption possible.

Thank you to Rhonda,Pieter and Chai for fostering April.

Ashley has settled in so well! She is such a cuddly girl, we can’t believe how quickly she has warmed to us, gotten into a routine and shown her cheeky personality. 

She is a shoe thief and loves playing with her many many toys, but never destroys anything.

She’s so cheeky and playful, but also easy going - the perfect girl for our family! 

Thank you so much to the love a greyhound team, yourself, Marlee for connecting us and Savannah for being an amazing generous foster carer.

Abby now Poppy
We are so grateful that Poppy has joined our family. She is a soft natured, gentle and curious girl who loves to explore new environments. She has grown to love her walks and is getting more and more confident everyday. She’s a bit cheeky, is always trying to go for a sneaky car ride, and loves playing with her soft and squeaky toys. She is a joy to be around.
She has really challenged herself to become a confident stair climber, tile walker (she’s still working on the shiny ones), and couch surfer and has recently informed us she is happy to “lie down” in cafes if we would PLEASE take her with us.
She loves spending time with people and gets quite offended if others ignore her while we are out walking. She makes us laugh every day with her antics. Thank you so much Love a Greyhound – we adore her!

He has been a great addition to family and everything we could of hoped for!

 “Miss Chloe, affectionately known to her new parents as “Roo” or “Rooey” because she like to zoom, bounce and bop around like a kangaroo  

She has slipped into our lives like she has always been there. She is clever, affectionate, a snack queen and a little bit silly and dopey at times. She loves a nap, but likes to have a pillow for her little noggin for full comfort of course! 

She loves an afternoon roach in the sun, a few walks, sniffing at the pond and zooming around the dog park at top speed.
She loves a cuddle and a good scratch, a treat or three and always falls asleep when dad plays guitar.

Strangers love her on our walks and shower her with compliments and scratches which she has no limit to accepting. She has more beds, outfits and toys than her humans and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
She really is a beautiful girl with a lovely nature and we feel blessed to have been lucky enough to have adopted her.

Thank you to Love A Greyhound and her super supportive foster girls. We are SO smitten with our little darling!

Thank you to Chiara for fostering Chloe.

Pepsi has settled into our home and family so beautifully. 

We could not have asked for a better transition. She’s incredibly affectionate and has the sweetest personality. 

Pepsi loves hanging out while I’m working from home although I have to say she sleeps on the job a lot! We’ve recently connected with some other greyhounds and it definitely seemed like she was back with her tribe. Thank you for bringing Pepsi into our lives Love A Greyhound.

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!

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.

 Lexie now Luci 💞  We are so happy that Luci came in to our lives on the day of the Swedish celebration of Santa Lucia, because of this and her likeness to the little demon Luci in the tv show Disenchantment, we just had to rename her from Lexie to Luci ☺️  She is such a happy girl and wags her tail for everybody who stops for a pat. 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 💞

Gorgeous little Allana (known as Lana) has been adopted by Jess and Matt, who said:

“ 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! “ 🥰

Nedell says:

“ Charlie (Zero) had 3 days as an only kid before Gigi (Hazel) stormed into the house like she owned the joint and they’ve both acted like the absolute king and queen of the castle ever since.👑

Charlie loves his morning and afternoon walks more than anything. Gigi loves running rampage through the house and makes herself comfy between us on the couch or bed. 🛏 

They’ve both settled in so quickly and as much as Charlie tried to resist Gigi’s charm, he absolutely loves his sister. 🐶

They love the beach, pool and creek, meeting new dog friends and exploring on the weekends. 🏖

When she’s not following mum around everywhere (and we mean everywhere 🚽), she likes to hang out on the couch with her brother Finn, sometimes against his wishes as she has no concept of personal space. 

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. 💗

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 🐾

Xena has adjusted well and stays home by herself sometimes and just sleeps on her bed.  She loves her walks and knows when it’s time for one. Xena has even made friends with the family chickens 🐥

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 🐶

Bluey is an amazing dog with lots of energy and has fitted into our new home perfectly. It didn’t take him long to feel comfortable. We love having him in our lives and so does everyone in our extended family (especially Grandma). 

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.

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.

After many weeks in foster Kobe has convinced Olivia and Tasma that this has been his forever home all along! 💞

Here’s some words from Olivia:

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 💞

Some words from Peach’s new family:

It’s only been one short week but it’s safe to say sweet Peach has us all smitten. 

She is a stage 5 clinger, takes her self appointed role as lap dog very seriously and isn’t a believer in personal space - we wouldn’t have it any other way. 

Her brother Bear has been such a gentleman, forfeiting any fights over toys and politely tolerating Peaches cheeky ear nibbles. 

If you’re thinking about starting or adding to your greyhound collection definitely reach out to the wonderful Love a Greyhound team!  💞

After much nagging from the LAG team and all their friends and family Peach and Bear now have their own insta 😂 You can follow their adorable adventures @peachandbear__ 🐶🐶
