About Dusty
Hi there, I'm Dusty, the happiest boy with the friendliest personality! I'm all smiles and if you adopt me, I'm sure you will be too!
I'm a friendly outgoing boy who just loves seeking out pats and attention. I had a go at living in a home for a while and I loved it, but now I'm on the hunt for my forever home. I just know with a personality like mine, it won't be far away. I love going on adventures (the beach is my absolute favourite!) and I do great with meeting other dogs while out and about!
I'm super smart and I've been studying up while I've been at kennels - I've learned some cool things like touch training and even a bit of recall! I'd love if my new family could keep up the training, it's so fun and I love keeping my mind active.
I wouldn't mind being a city slicker, but I would prefer a home with a backyard - I'm quite partial to a bit of landscaping, and my favourite place to sunbake is in a hole I dug for myself! (I guess they call me Dusty for a reason!)
I'd like a family where I can be king of the castle without having to worry about kids or other dogs. I like to have my own space where I can relax without being disturbed - I'm sure you'd agree that being woken up while you're snoozing is no fun! I can get a bit too excited about being on human beds and lounges so it's best I avoid those, but love chillaxing in my crate (it's my safe place), and it'll come with me to my new home to help me settle in.
I don't mind if you need to go to work in the day, as I'm quite happy having a bit of me time - they do say self care is important, right? And I will greet you with so much love when you get home!
Adoption details
All of Greyhound Rescue's adoption and foster placements are on a case-by-case basis. We go to great lengths to match each dog with their new family to make sure that both dog and family are happy. We offer post-adoption support to our rescue community so that each adoptive family and hound are cared for.
We will send you an application form to complete and return. Then we will arrange a house check. It is important that the right hound goes to the right home! We can arrange for you to meet the dog/s and they can meet your family and/or other pets. Our hounds go “on trial” with your family for a minimum of 2 weeks.
Greyhound Rescue's adoption fee is $420. All our hounds are desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea and worm treated, and heartworm tested and treated. The adoption fee also includes our New Adopter Kit - collar, leash, muzzle and loads of other goodies to help you get your new hound settled into the family.
