About Billie
Meet Billie, a 2 year old smoochy girl that looks part deer, part camel and part hash brown. It's hard not to fall in love with this cheeky, gentle girl. She wants to be near you at all times to get lots of pats and she LOVES to snuggle. Billie is still very much a puppy and has lots of energy – she enjoys two 40-60 min walks a day and still has energy to play.
Billie is still learning about the world and frightened of things she doesn’t understand, including people she hasn’t met. She will need lots of patience to introduce her to her new neighbourhood. Her ideal home would be away from the hustle and bustle, so she can enjoy a sniffari without running into too many people. Billie would love a home with another more confident dog companion – bonus points if they want to play tug-of-war with her and chase her around the backyard when she gets the zoomies.
Billie has been left at home for up to 8 hours a few days a week - and with doggy companions and access to a yard, she is content to relax and sleep. But once you are home, she wants to be with you wherever you are, bring you toys to initiate play and is curious about why she isn’t getting all of your attention.
Billie is great with all dogs she has met. She is very scared of young children (particularly the noises they make, even from a distance), as well as prams and kids on bikes. Like many greyhounds, Billie is frightened of "open tread" stairs, so would not be suited to a house with stairs unless they were closed tread.

Adoption details
STEP 1 – ENQUIRE & EOI FORM:
greytgreys.org/adopt/apply
If the greyhound you have applied for is unavailable or unsuitable, we can match you with a 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 $375.00 and must be paid before 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!
