About Ozzi
It’s your mate Ozzi!
Like most aussie’s I love the beach, I mean who doesn’t. The hot weather, the cool water, the people and the fun activities. It really is super fun and when we do go its always a great day. I’m what they call an extrovert, nothing seems to phase me. I am ready for whatever life throws me, it’s confidence baby!
All I want to do is go out and explore this unknown world I have previously missed out on. I’m even okay with going to the vet… I know shocker right. That’s me, I’m definitely superior to the others.
I’m a big lover of cuddles, just anything human related gives me that warm feeling in my chest. Other dogs are a mystery to me still but if I’m as outgoing as I say I am, hopefully I’ll learn that they aren’t that bad and like me, just want to play. The little humans I sometimes see roaming around are a bit odd, so I may take small steps before I consider them a friend. But I’ll get there because I don’t want to miss any opportunity to make new friend.
No cat or small dog applications please.
No children under ten.
No full time workers unless working from home or there is another dog
We only consider applications who compete our Gumtree Greys online application.
When this is done we can make contact to discuss adopting a greyhound and potential suitable greys currently in foster care.
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.
During the COVID crisis, not all of our rescued Greyhounds will have the usual socialisation with other dogs so we may advise to use a muzzle in some situations until the dog is fully socialised.

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.
