About Jake Melbourne
Some dogs are born to be outside and Jake certainly fits the bill. He’s bursting with energy and enthusiasm. He loves nothing more than taking off on multiple walks each day and being outside generally. Indeed, the mere hint of a walk sends him into a tailspin. He wags his tail so hard that he starts to flail about. It’s a truly extraordinary sight!
But he also cherishes his downtime. He loves a pat on the bum, devours his food and adores human company. He’s also quite content to rest and recharge on his own.
Jake is a gem – he’s well behaved, quick to learn, very partial to a cuddle and simply loves life.
Jake hasn't been tested with cats, so no cat applications please.

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.
