Available for Adoption
While it’s easy to fall for a photograph, we believe a picture can't convey the nuances of a greyhound’s personality. At GGA, we prioritize thoughtful matches based on personality, behaviours, and mutual compatibility. Our process ensures a lifelong bond between you and your new family member.
If we currently have no paw advertised as available for adoption, that doesn’t necessarily mean we don’t have any paws available for adoption.
Many of our adoptables are in evaluative foster care prior to making their 'world wide web' and social media debuts.

Pingu (Mount Fuji)
Pingu (Mount Fuji) is a 4-year, 4-month-old blue boy weighing in at 66 lbs. A son of Beast Unleashed and Mount Royal, Pingu retires from his Australian racing career with an impressive 58 races to his muzzle and $28,600 AUD in earnings for his owner, Frank Micallef.
Pingu knows what he likes, and people are right at the top of his list! Confident, outgoing, and wonderfully affectionate, he never turns down a little attention or an opportunity to join in whatever is happening around him. He's a social butterfly with a lovely temperament and a genuine enthusiasm for human companionship.
And for those who enjoy getting out and about, Pingu has another talent worth mentioning. He walks beautifully on lead! His confidence and good walking manners make him a pleasure to have alongside you, whether it's a quiet neighbourhood stroll or an opportunity to explore somewhere new. He's also shown himself to be great with children, happily engaging with people of all ages.
Pingu isn't looking for anything particularly complicated. A family who enjoys his company, appreciates his affectionate and confident personality, and is ready to help him learn the ins and outs of retirement life would suit him beautifully. With a little guidance through the transition from kennel to home, we suspect this handsome blue fellow will take to his new role as a much-loved companion with the same enthusiasm he brings to everything else!

Ash (It's Ashtyn)
Ash (Its Ashtyn) is a 4-year, 4-month-old brindle girl weighing in at a petite 51 lbs. A daughter of Worm Burner and Curiouser, Ash retires from her Australian racing career with 35 races to her muzzle and over $3,045 AUD in earnings. Now she's ready to trade her racing days for the adventures of retirement!
Ash is a happy, playful, and affectionate girl with a lovely personality and plenty of love to share. She genuinely enjoys being around people and would make a wonderful addition to a family that appreciates a fun-loving greyhound who enjoys attention, companionship, and being part of everyday activities. Ash has shown herself to be friendly and playful with children, making her a lovely candidate for a family home.
One thing Ash has made quite clear is that cats are not her cup of tea! Her assessment showed that she is not cat workable, so a feline-free home is a must.
With her cheerful personality, affectionate nature, and enthusiasm for life, Ash has all the makings of a wonderful retirement companion. She's looking for a family who will embrace her playful spirit, provide the structure and guidance needed for a successful transition, and enjoy everything this sweet little brindle girl has to offer.

Monnie (Set To Dance)
Monnie (pronounced MON-nee, Set To Dance) is a gorgeous 5-year, 7-month-old dark brindle girl weighing in at 64 lbs. A daughter of Good Odds Harada and Set To Storm, Monnie retires from her Australian racing career with an impressive 65 races to her muzzle and over $13,739 AUD in earnings for her owner, David Howarth. Now, this lovely girl is ready to trade her racing career for a well-deserved retirement!
Monnie is a friendly, social, and affectionate girl who simply adores people. She has a beautiful personality and genuinely enjoys human companionship, making her a wonderful candidate for a family looking for a greyhound who wants to be part of everyday life. Whether it's spending time together, enjoying a little attention, or simply being close to her favourite two-leggers, Monnie is happiest when she's included.
Monnie has shown herself to be wonderful with children, displaying a friendly, easygoing, and social nature. She has a low prey drive and hasn't demonstrated an interest in chasing behaviours. Her assessments with smaller dogs and cats are still ongoing, so we'll know more about her suitability for homes with smaller furry family members once those are complete.
With her affectionate nature, love of people, and happy disposition, Monnie has all the makings of a wonderful retirement companion. She's looking for a family who will welcome her into their daily lives, provide the guidance and structure that comes with transitioning from racing kennel life, and give her plenty of opportunities to enjoy her next chapter.
Duke (Mount Barker)
Duke (Mount Barker) is a handsome 4-year, 4-month-old blue male weighing 66 lbs. A son of Beast Unleashed and Mount Royal, Duke enjoyed a successful Australian racing career, competing in 56 races and earning over $16,570 AUD for his owner, Charlie Micallef. With his racing days behind him, Duke is ready to discover what retired life is all about.
If your idea of the perfect greyhound involves plenty of cuddles, a sweet personality, and a boy who thinks human affection is one of life's greatest pleasures, Duke might just be your fellow! There's a lot to adore about Duke, but his beautiful, affectionate nature is what really stands out. He's a genuinely sweet boy who loves being around people and is always happy to accept an extra pat, a cuddle, or simply some quality time with his favourite humans. Duke isn't shy about showing his affection, and we suspect his new family will have him wrapped around their paws in no time!
Duke has also shown himself to be wonderful with children, greeting them with the same friendly, gentle nature he shares with everyone else. He's a social, people-oriented boy who would love a home where he can be included in family life and enjoy all the little moments that make retirement so special.
Duke's wish list is pretty simple: kind people, a comfortable place to call his own, plenty of companionship, and a generous supply of affection! Like any newly retired racer, he'll need some guidance as he learns the routines and expectations of home life, but his friendly disposition and love of people give him a lovely foundation for this next chapter.
Queenie (Queen Of Cards)
Queenie (Queen Of Clubs) is a 1-year-8-month-old, 62-lb, white with brindle ticking female from Top Of The Pile and Glamorous Girl. Queenie is a sweet, reserved girl who is slowly figuring out what this big new world is all about.
She absolutely loved her time growing up on the puppy farm and attending training school, but the racing world proved to be just a wee bit too much for her. Now, she's learning that life beyond the track has plenty of wonderful things to offer! Queenie is looking for a very special retirement home with experienced greyhound people who understand that confidence takes time to build. She would thrive alongside another confident, well-adjusted greyhound who can help show her the ropes, and two-leggers who offer quiet encouragement, patient leadership, and a predictable routine.
Queenie doesn't need anyone to rush her or feel sorry for her. She needs people who will give her the guidance, structure, and reassurance to discover just how capable she really is. Beneath that reserved exterior is a lovely little girl with so much potential, just waiting for the right family to help her shine.
