Swizzlestick Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Hi folks, :) I've been asked to help find a home for a young greyhound pup. Currently located near Ballarat, Vic, but I'm willing to drive him to his new home, or at least part of the way. He's a black pup, currently 8 weeks old, from racing lines. He's safe and well with his breeder until he finds a forever home. At 4 weeks old he sustained fractures to his left hind (tibia/fibula). No growth plate involvement. He's now running around like a pork chop with his siblings. While he won't make it as a racing dog, his leg has healed extremely well and a lovely pet home is what he needs. His trainer is a lovely fellow, who just wants to find this sweet little boy a good home. So, anyone looking for a new pup? Or know of someone who is? Please contact me!!

mixeduppup Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I've asked around as I know a few months back I had a few people ask me if I knew of a young greyhound to adopt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebanne Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Sometimes GAP has people wanting a pup, while they can't get involved because of his age they have, in the past, put people in touch and then it's up to both parties to be satisfied with each other. So try them and maybe GSN are the same, doesn't hurt to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*kirty* Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Awww I wish! A few clients at work have pet greys - I'll ask if anyone is looking for a new baby. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendles Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Would Adelaide be an option for a new home if we were to drive over? I know a retired couple (my parents) with no other pets who are waiting for the right grey with GAP here in Adelaide - I foster for GAP and we are very familiar with grey care, muzzle laws and not allowing them off lead ever. The number of times my Mum has said she wishes pups came through GAP as she is still drawn in that direction and would prefer a boy. I will send you a PM :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendles Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Sadly this sweet little boy still needs a home so bumping him up. I did not know but my parents have a 3 week "once in a lifetime" cruise booked in Feb and do not want to adopt this little man and have to leave him again so soon and for so long. My Mum would have been happy to cancel the holiday but I think she would have gained a dog and lost a husband (depending on the husband I know this may not have been a bad trade!!). Hopefully it means fate has another wonderful forever family coming his way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelsquest Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hi Sir WJ, Is there an update on this, has the pup found a home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Every Greyhound Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Have pm'd to offer the opportunity to list the pup on www.egreyhound.com.au. Many other greyhounds are finding their homes through this website. Its free and easy to use and may be the link for a forever home finding this pup. [email protected] if you need help with the site. Good luck with this little one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
