About Tonk
Introducing Tonk, the charming greyhound who is looking for a new family to shower with love and companionship. Tonk is the epitome of friendliness and has an endearing affection for people that is impossible to resist. He has an easy-going nature that makes him a fantastic companion for all ages.
As a shelter's trusted tester dog, he has proven his exceptional ability to get along with other dogs, making him an ideal addition to homes that already have other canine buddies. His easy-going temperament makes him a joy to be around, even when meeting new doggy friends.
Tonk's lifestyle is perfectly matched to those who enjoy a relaxed routine. True to the nature of many greyhounds, he is wonderfully low maintenance—content with a daily stroll to stretch his long legs and some quality lounging time on the couch by your side. Whether it's sipping tea in the morning sun or curling up by the fire in the evening, Tonk will be by your side, spreading warmth and happiness.
If you are looking for a loving, laid-back companion who will bring a sense of calm and joy to your home, Tonk is ready to join your family and make every day feel like a blessing.

Adoption details
We run by appointment, prefferibly all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.

Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
