About Blanche
Blanche is funny, loving, bold, and outrageously cute. She thrives on activity, attention, and being included in your life. If you’re looking for a dog to share your adventures, make you laugh every day, and then sidle up for a cuddle in the evenings, Blanche could be your perfect match.
As a young greyhound, Blanche is full of enthusiasm and curiosity. She’s friendly and social, and loves meeting new people when she’s out and about. She’s confident in busy environments—cafés, shops, streets, beaches, dog parks, city streets—you name it, she’s happy to be there with you.
While many greyhounds are famous for their love of all-day lounging, Blanche has a more adventurous spirit. She loves getting out and about and being part of the action... though once the fun is done, she’s more than happy to enjoy a big, well-earned snooze.
She loves play-breaks during the day and keeping her foster carer company while she works from home! Blanche is also comfortable being home alone several days a week.
The beach is one of her favourite places, especially when there are waves to splash in. A backyard would be ideal so she can run, play, and burn off some of her joyful energy.
Her curious, clever nature means she enjoys exploring her environment—sometimes by “adopting” household items into her personal collection or investigating delicious smells on kitchen benches. A puppy-proofed home will help her curiosity shine in all the right ways.
Blanche would love an active home—whether that’s a single person, a couple, or a family with older kids (12+ years) —who can give her two walks a day and plenty of time together.
She’ll do best with someone who has greyhound experience and enjoys ongoing training and enrichment. She’s happiest as the only dog for now so she can have both fun and quiet downtime. And like most greyhounds, she’s looking for a home without cats or small animals.

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!
