About Leo. Melbourne
Leo is a quirky looking boy, with a cute face resembling a fruit bat! For a hound who spent seven years in a kennel, he has adapted to life in foster care with aplomb. He’s partial to a brisk stroll, is a gentleman on the lead and loves a long snooze on the couch. What he loves more than anything however, is a good smooch and snuggle. The way he greets you at the door with his white tip tail wagging in helicopter mode is also something to behold!
Leo is definitely not cat friendly and still getting to know small dogs but would be quite content as an only dog.

Adoption details
Dogs are pack animals and Greyhounds, in particular, are very familiar with being surrounded by other dogs in their racing kennel environment. For this reason, when left alone without people or other dogs for company, they can be prone to separation anxiety which can manifest in destructive and/or noisy behaviour. Yes, they may "grow out" of it after a few weeks in their new home, but why put the dog through that stress to ultimately live all day alone, while everyone is at work? As a result we do not rehome dogs into households where they are left on their own for more than 4 hours per day, without either people or another dog for company.

Following your initial application, we conduct a home check. Our dogs are placed on a two week trial. The adoption fee is paid at time of placement and reimbursed if the trial is unsuccessful.
After the trial period is deemed successful, the adoption process is finalised.
