On Hold
About Will “Ru” Do for You? Melbourne
Let me tell you about a dog named Ru.
He likes a walk, and a good sleep too.
He goes outside when he needs the loo.
And best of all, his heart is true.
If left alone, he won’t cry or chew,
But lack of company makes him blue.
He could live with another dog or two,
Or with humans whose absences are few.
He’d be fine with kids, as long as they knew
That walking him’s something an adult should do.
When he sees small dogs, he can get in a stew.
He’ll calm down over time, but they’re still very new.
Ru is very relaxed, and cuddly too.
He’ll stay right by your side like glue.
He’s the perfect pet, through and through.
Could Ru be the ideal greyhound for you?

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.
