About Buddy
Tall, dark, and handsome, 2 year old Buddy is keen to smooch his way into your heart and home. Our adorkable lad is as his name suggests, ready to be your bestest bud for life. Long, lanky with gorgeous amber eyes, Buddy is a tennis ball fanatic! He’ll even play fetch with you and will even let you rescue the ball every now and then. Buddy is an unofficial safety snootervisor, so will follow you from room to room, until he gets used to the routine. When you go out, he’ll be sad that he cannot continue his duties with you – so he’d prefer someone home more often than not so he can get the job done! It’s important to ensure that Buddy fills his daily needs of snuggles, pats and long loving stares.
During his time in foster care, Buddy has mastered the stairs, and shown no fear of loud noises like storms or vacuum cleaners. Buddy also knows his boundaries with kitchen access, but he’s still working on getting into the car, and learning how to interact with weird - shaped greyhounds (aka dogs of other breeds).
Generally laid back and easy going at home, Buddy does have a playful side, and loves to romp around the yard. He would enjoy the company of
a suitable dog or even children aged 10+ who are happy to play few games of fetch.
If you’re ready to start every day with a gentle boop from a sweet snoot, then get your application in quick! This gorgeous boy is sure to melt hearts and win admirers with those big brown eyes and sweet floppy ears.
No cats or small dogs
No full time workers unless some working from home or there is another dog
No children under six

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.
