About D'Arcy (Greenhound)
Due to circumstances beyond their control, D’Arcy’s owner can no longer keep him, so Greyhound Rescue is assisting in finding him a new home. D’Arcy is a sweet-natured boy who’s almost 8, he’s also already passed his Greenhound assessment, so no muzzles for him!
Here’s what D’Arcy’s current owner says about him:
"D’Arcy is a quiet, good-natured, gentle rescue Greyhound. He likes to spend his days lounging on the veranda in and out of the sun. He lives outside in the daytime and in the living room at night. If there is somebody around he will generally go and lie beside them. If there is a rug or a mat put out he will make it his home.
A yard would be nice, as he likes to run and play. However, he has lived in smaller places and can zoomie on a small rug and still tire himself out.
D’arcy loves to go out and about in the car, for a walk, or even to the Vet. He is happy to wait patiently at home while the family is at work/school and amuse himself with his toys or sleeping in the backyard. He is a confident dog who adores meeting new people and having his neck scratched. He seems content to be an only dog.
He isn’t territorial, and as with most greyhounds doesn’t bark. He is very friendly with children but will walk away if they are too boisterous. I believe he would be most suited to a quieter household, possibly retired owners. He has lived with other dogs before us and during holiday breaks with no issues.
He doesn’t pull on the lead and generally prefers 2 short walks a day. He is always excited to welcome you home and is not anxious about being left alone when I leave in the morning. He loves routine."

Adoption details
Once we have found your new greyhound we will send you an application form to complete and return. Then we will arrange a house check. It is important that the right hound goes to the right home! We can arrange for you to meet the dog/s and they can meet your family and/or other pets. Our hounds go “on trial” with your family for a minimum of 2 weeks. We have dogs that are small dog and cat friendly.
We expect greyhounds to be 'indoor dogs' and not left alone for long periods of time. Ideally they would have a doggy or human friend for company most of the time.
