About “Brother”, One of the Family. Brisbane
Brother is a black greyhound with a heart of pure gold. He loves being part of the family, and when his foster carers’ nephew dropped by in his wheelchair, Brother wouldn’t leave his side for the whole visit. He’s certain to become a cherished canine member in his forever home.
Brother has also taken his greyhound foster sister Rosie into his great big heart, and it would be lovely if the two of them could find a home together – his charm and her feistiness would make a perfect ready-made pair. He is good with small dogs, but hasn’t met cats yet, so we’re not sure enough to recommend him to a home with cats. Brother’s other favourite things are walks, playing chasey with Rosie, leaning into you for a pat, and sneaking onto the bed or stealing food. Well we didn’t say he was perfect…yet! He’s learned things like stairs, floor tiles and car rides very quickly, so we’re sure he’ll pick up house rules with a little more time.
Brother is good with children but can become fearful if they crowd him too much. For that reason we do not recommend a home with children.
Brother’s cheeky, friendly, loving and handsome…all the things you’d want a brother to be. Have you got space for him (and maybe Rosie too) in your family?

Adoption details
Dogs are pack animals and Greyhounds, in particular, are very familiar with being surrounded by other dogs in their racing kennel environment. For this reason, when left alone without people or other dogs for company, they can be prone to separation anxiety which can manifest in destructive and/or noisy behaviour. Yes, they may "grow out" of it after a few weeks in their new home, but why put the dog through that stress to ultimately live all day alone, while everyone is at work? As a result we do not rehome dogs into households where they are left on their own for more than 4 hours per day, without either people or another dog for company.

Following your initial application, we conduct a home check. Our dogs are placed on a two week trial. The adoption fee is paid at time of placement and reimbursed if the trial is unsuccessful.
After the trial period is deemed successful, the adoption process is finalised.
