About Onyx
Aroo there! My name is Onyx, 'Ony' for short and I'm looking for love! I turn 5 on July 13th, so a new home would be the perfect gift.
I'm affectionate and cuddly, but I also like adventures! Did I hear a squeaky toy? I love squeaky toys! I'll also play fetch with a footy and I'll bring it back to you! I would love a yard to conduct my daily zoomies in too!
My favourite snacks are beef liver, banana ... come to think of it I might be a foodie. I'm also a fast learner, and I can sit! I'm super inquistive and love to follow you around the house! For this reason, I'd prefer someone home more often than not.
I prefer a walk twice a day, I'm still getting used to other dogs (other than greyhounds) so I'll need patience and for you to continue my training. I am not a fan of cats or small dogs. If kids, suitable to 12+ years!
I enjoy my own space and so would like to be the only princess in your castle. I'm ready for the rubs, the pats, the scritches, and in return you'll get a truck-load of love from me!
Can you make my birthday wish come true?

Adoption details
STEP 1 – ENQUIRE & EOI FORM:
Click 'Enquire about this pet' to contact us or email us at adoptions@greytgreys.org to express interest in the hound that you are looking at. We'll send you an EOI form, this must be returned before proceeding.
If the greyhound you have applied for is unavailable or unsuitable, we can match you with a more suitable greyhound. We may have a hound in foster care who might be well suited to your family.
STEP 2 – LET'S CHAT:
We'll phone you to discuss suitability, clarify any points of your application and chat process and next steps.
STEP 3 – HOUSE CHECK & MEET + GREET:
We'll come to you! The meet + greet is conducted at the same time that a house check is carried out. The meet + greet is the day that your newly adopted greyhound will be able to stay on with you.
Our adoption fee is $320.00 and must be paid on on the day of the meet + greet, and prior to starting your 3 week trial. Support from our team is freely available. If you have any issues, we urge you to contact us to try and work through them, as all rescue greyhounds have some period of adjustment.
If after the 3 week trial, you feel that you need to return the greyhound, we will refund your adoption fee (less a $50 administration fee), upon return of the dog and all paperwork and other items that the dog was adopted with.
All of our hounds are adopted out with the following:
> Collar, lead & coat
> Certificate of sterilisation & vaccination
> Flea & worm treated
> Care information for your newly adopted greyhound
> Access to our private Facebook page for foster carers, volunteers and adopters of our hounds. A community with invaluable advice and support.
