Greyhound Adoption: A Heartfelt Initiative by Greyhounds as Pets SA

Greyhounds as Pets SA, also known as the Greyhound Adoption Program SA (GAP SA), is a non-profit organisation managed by Greyhound Racing South Australia. Its mission is to find loving forever homes for retired greyhounds transitioning into private life.

As loving and beautiful companions, greyhounds flourish with personal interaction once adopted. Known for their naturally gentle demeanour, retired greyhounds make wonderful pets for individuals and families alike. Despite their athletic build, these dogs are perfectly content to lead a more relaxed indoor lifestyle and adapt well to living in smaller urban homes. With their excellent health and strong bonds with humans, greyhounds can offer unconditional love to their owners throughout their lives.

GAP SA is proudly supported by dedicated sponsors, volunteers, and adopters who collaborate to fulfil this mission. The organisation strives to ensure that every unraced and retired greyhound finds a caring forever home through increased public awareness. The process of fostering or adopting a greyhound is both simple and rewarding, bringing you a new best friend brimming with the affectionate spirit of everyone’s favourite bendy, blonde companion.
