Meet Pocket – Your Sweet, Gentle Best Friend in the Making
🧡 2 Years Old | Fawn Greyhound | Dog-Friendly & Possibly Cat-Friendly

Looking for a young, loving companion to share your life with? Say hello to Pocket, a stunning two-year-old fawn greyhound with a heart as soft as his velvet ears. Pocket is still just a baby in greyhound terms, full of potential and eager to discover what it means to be part of a family.

Unlike most greyhounds, Pocket has never raced, which means he’s now learning all about the big, wide world with curiosity and grace. He’s quickly getting the hang of pet life—settling into routines, enjoying soft beds, and exploring everything from toys to tummy rubs.

Pocket is a calm and gentle boy who gets along beautifully with other dogs, making him a great match for homes with existing pets. He’s also showing signs that he could be cat-friendly, so with proper introductions and supervision, he may happily share his space with a feline friend. He has also been great with small kids!

He walks well on lead, is learning home manners, and is happiest when he’s near his humans. Pocket has a quiet confidence and a truly loving nature—he doesn’t need much, just a soft place to rest and someone to love him.

Whether you’re looking for your first greyhound or hoping to add to your pack, Pocket will bring peace, affection, and a gentle spark of joy to your home.

🐾 Desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for adoption.
🏡 Pocket is patiently waiting for his forever home—could it be with you?

🐾Meet Jamie🐾 - A sweet soul looking for her furever family!

Jamie started as a scared little kitten afraid of the very big and very new world around her. Slowly but surely she has been introduced to lots of new people, animals, and experiences that have helped her grow into a cuddly and charming cat! While Jamie can show her shy side to strangers, she's especially fond of other cats and dogs, and will quickly befriend any furry companion that comes her way.

Jamie was extra scared when she first came into her current foster home, but with her carer's love, patience and understanding, Jamie revealed her affectionate and gentle nature. Although her quiet countenance can come across as aloof, Jamie has no less love to offer for her new family.

🐾Meet Honey🐾 - the epitome of sweetness and charm, eagerly seeking her forever home and the chance to shower her new family with love and affection.

She is an extremely cuddly girl, who is happy just chilling and hanging out where you are. She has been in foster with another cat and was independent but co-existing happily, however would most likely fit in with a household where she's the only fur baby, or with another cat who will respect her boundaries.

While she may be a novice adventurer, Honey's curiosity knows no bounds. She's always up for exploring new surroundings, albeit in her own gentle and cautious way.

If you're in search of a furry friend who radiates warmth and brings endless joy into your home, look no further than Honey. Embrace the opportunity to welcome her into your family and experience all that she has to offer. Adopt Honey today and let her fill your life with sweetness and affection!

🐾Meet Zoe🐾 - A Sweet Soul Ready for Her Forever Couch

Meet Zoe, a gentle 5-year-old greyhound with a heart as big as her beautiful brown eyes. With her calm nature and affectionate personality, Zoe is the perfect match for anyone looking for a laid-back, loving companion.

Zoe has left her racing days behind and is now discovering the joys of home life such as soft beds, squeaky toys, and plenty of cuddles. She’s a quiet girl who adores human company and will happily follow you from room to room, just to be near you.

She’s polite on the lead, enjoys her daily walks, and is perfectly content to spend the rest of the day snoozing by your side. Zoe gets along well with other dogs and may be suited to a home with a canine friend. She hasn’t been tested with cats yet, but her easygoing nature suggests she could adapt well with the right introductions.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s already mastered the art of lounging, Zoe might just be your perfect match. She’s ready to trade in her racing silks for a cozy spot on your couch and your heart.

Could Zoe be the one to complete your family? 💜💚Head to our website to learn more about her! https://pawsdarwin.org.au/animals-available-for-adoption-2/

🐾Meet Kevin🐾- a sweet and playful 3-year-old greyhound who’s ready to bring joy and laughter into your life!

With his striking coat and gentle nature, Kevin is the perfect mix of charm and fun. He’s full of energy and loves to run and play, but don’t let that fool you—when it’s time to relax, he’s all about cuddling up and enjoying some downtime with his favorite humans.

Kevin gets along well with other dogs and would be happy to share his home with a furry friend, though he’s also content being the only dog and soaking up all the love for himself. He’s a social guy who enjoys meeting new people and is always excited for a new adventure, whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or a trip to the park.

If you're looking for an active, affectionate companion with a big heart, Kevin would love to be your new best friend!

Thanks so much to everyone who braved the heat and popped in to visit us at PAWS today!

Our incredible foster carers turned out in support, and we were able to secure great outcomes for some of our very deserving animals.

Special thanks to Kevin and his partner for fostering Buddy, to Francesca for fostering Archie, to Amy for adopting Andy the cat and to Louise and Isabella for their very thoughtful and generous donation.

While we are hoping to organise another special meet & greet day in the near future, we hope you'll feel free to stop in and visit any time you're in the neighbourhood.

Thank you for your support; We really are very lucky to have you all.

If you could book an appointment that would be great. Include the name of the animal you wish to foster. We cannot guarantee the animal will still be available as we do not hold animals for fostering.
