About Bruce
Hi, I'm Bruce - a ravishingly handsome 6 year old looking for my forever home. I’m looking for my second forever family through no fault of my own as my previous family were no longer able to look after me.
My loves are (in no particular order):
- my human foster brother who is 4 human years old
- my canine foster brother who is a medium-large boy
- going for walks
- getting treats and cuddles
- a really good nap
- a really good sleep
I’ve been a pet for over 2 years now and have the retired life down pat. I’m very friendly with all humans and I only bark when I’m playing to show you how happy I am. I love binge watching a good tv series and am great company in the lounge room so I hope this is one of your hobbies too.
I’m really good at my house training and I will show you when I need to go outside to the toilet. I like to sleep on my own bed and I will follow your lead as to if you want me to sleep on the lounge or not, I’m very flexible and want to make my new family happy.
I’m happy enough to hang out by myself during the day or if you have another medium-large sized dog that would be okay too (no smallies please!). I’m very good at walking on the leash and look forward to going on my daily walks with my family.
I’m not super big for a boy but I’m not small at 32kg either. My red fawn coat is very luxurious and not many dogs look as good as I do. I’ve got a face that everyone will love and you will be sure to get lots of compliments about how handsome I am.
If you would like to see how we might go together please contact my people at Greyhound Connections crgconnections@gmail.com and we can catch up.
See you very soon!
Adoption details
STEP 1 - The Conversation
Fill out the adoption enquiry form on our website and tell us about the type of greyhound you think will suit you and your family, or if you've already found a greyhound that has caught your eye. We aim to get the match right for both your sake and that of the greyhound, so please include as much detail as possible in your enquiry. Just like people, every greyhound is unique. Following receipt of your enquiry form, a volunteer from Greyhound Connections will contact you to chat about the greyhounds we have for adoption that may be suitable, or the greyhound that has caught your eye.
STEP 2 - The Meet 'n' Greet
Once we have found a greyhound that might be a good match we will contact you to arrange an obligation-free meet 'n' greet. This might be at your house or at a place where the greyhound is currently living, or in a public place such as a park or cafe. You will get a chance to meet the dog in person and ask any further questions you may have. If you are feeling confident about the greyhound, we will talk about arranging a trial.
STEP 3 - The Trial
To ensure the fit is right for both your family and the greyhound, we recommend a three week trial. This will help you to see if you and the greyhound settle in together, and become accustomed to each other's behaviours. We will provide you with our Adoption Handbook that provides you with lots of vital greyhound-related information and all of your greyhound's personal details. You will be encouraged to contact us and the breeder, trainer or owner if you have any questions or concerns through the trial period. We will be here to support you and the greyhound all the way, and love to hear how the greyhound is settling in.
STEP 4 - The Adoption
Following a successful trial, we will work with you to finalise the adoption of your new family member. This includes signing our adoption form, registering the greyhound under your name with your local animal services authority and providing proof of this, and your payment of the adoption fee.
