About Freddie. Melbourne
Five-year-old Freddie is a sweet, quirky and playful boy who loves to put on a performance when you get home – singing, dancing, the whole kit and caboodle!
He’s quite the showman but also cherishes his quiet time. Indeed, he loves nothing more than nuzzling up with his favorite teddy bears. Not only does he strut around the house with them in his mouth, he even tries to take his long-necked ostrich and flamingo with him when it’s walkies time!
Freddie gets on well with dogs of all sizes and breeds and would ideally love to live with another hound, maybe a confident girl who can be in charge. He had a nasty fall in his final race but has recovered well, is learning quickly and has an abundance of love to give.
Freddie has not been tested with cats so no cat homes please.

Medical notes
Freddie had a serious crash in his last race. He has some injuries that will cause some discomfort but not need surgical intervention. He will need anti-inflammatory supplements.
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.
