About Wilson
Gorgeous blue boy, Wilson is 4 years old and ready to find his pawfect home!
Wilson is a gentle giant, affectionate and cuddly and loves any toy that squeaks. He is a robust toy and snack tester. He's very food motivated – Wilson enjoys everything and not a fussy eater! Love, patience and snacks are the keys to this boy's heart!
Wilson likes nothing more than reminding you that it’s breakfast time, after which he is more than happy to spend the rest of the morning back in bed.
He travels well in the car and takes to new environments well, if his humans are with him. Wilson loves his daily walk and loves adventuring to new places. Wilson is also a shadow snoot and will follow you to each room, including the bathroom just to supervise! He has come a long way in foster care, but he will require a good routine and strict boundaries.
Wilson loves sunbaking in the sun and chasing balls, so he requires a backyard and is not suited to apartment living. Most importantly, Wilson loves being around people, so will need a home where people are home, more often, than not.
Due to COVID19, we've been unable to conduct proper separation training. This is something you'll need to take into consideration before adoption. Wilson loves being around people, so his new home will need to be patient and understanding, as he adapts to new environments and situations.
Summary:
- Not small dog or cat friendly
- If kids, 12+ years
- Not suitable to apartment living
- No full time workers
- Requires someone home more often, than not
Adoption details
STEP 1 – ENQUIRE & EOI FORM:
Click 'Enquire about this pet' to contact us or email us at adoptions@greytgreys.org to express interest in the hound that you are looking at. We'll send you an EOI form, this must be returned before proceeding.
If the greyhound you have applied for is unavailable or unsuitable, we can match you with a more suitable greyhound. We may have a hound in foster care who might be well suited to your family.
STEP 2 – LET'S CHAT:
We'll phone you to discuss suitability, clarify any points of your application and chat process and next steps.
STEP 3 – HOUSE CHECK & MEET + GREET:
We'll come to you! The meet + greet is conducted at the same time that a house check is carried out. The meet + greet is the day that your newly adopted greyhound will be able to stay on with you.
Our adoption fee is $350.00 and must be paid on on the day of the meet + greet, and prior to starting your 3 week trial. Support from our team is freely available. If you have any issues, we urge you to contact us to try and work through them, as all rescue greyhounds have some period of adjustment.
If after the 3 week trial, you feel that you need to return the greyhound, we will refund your adoption fee (less a $50 administration fee), upon return of the dog and all paperwork and other items that the dog was adopted with.
All of our hounds are adopted out with the following:
> Collar, lead & coat
> Certificate of sterilisation & vaccination
> Flea & worm treated
> Care information for your newly adopted greyhound
> Access to our private Facebook page for foster carers, volunteers and adopters of our hounds. A community with invaluable advice and support.
