🐾 Happy Adopter Tails | Tatum 🐾

"In March 2023, we welcomed Tatum into our family. We were a bit nervous, balancing a 7-month-old baby with a 33kg greyhound. But it’s turned out to be one of the best decisions we’ve ever made! I think the photos speak for themselves. ❤️

We’re also teaching our son to respect Tatum’s space, take part in his care, and treat him with gentleness." — Shannon Palmer, Maitland , NSW**

Friyay Foster Care Update: Kara and Panda! 🐼 | 3 yrs old

"We are so impressed with the progress Panda has already made in the short time we have had him. He has proved to be the sweetest boy who is so gentle and loves affection and reassurance from his carers. He took to toilet training immediately and has never had an accident in the house – we affectionally refer to him as the camel as he knows how to hold onto water!

✅ all dogs
✅ older children
✅ full-time workers

Panda also has a super playful personality – he loves his squeaky toys and absolutely adores playing fetch! He will run after a ball and bring it back, eagerly waiting for you to throw it again (and again). He walks well on a lead and is extremely friendly – he loves receiving pats from people and saying ‘hello’ to dogs he comes across. If you’re after a calm companion who will adore spending time with you – Panda is your boy!" —Kara Foster Carer, Towradgi, NSW

🐾 Happy Adopter Tails 🐾 💛 Darcy & Kylie 💛

"Adopting a greyhound 7 weeks ago was probably one of the best decisions I have made. I was initially a little hesitant to get a dog as I live alone, and work shifts, and was worried how a dog would fit into my lifestyle. However, Darcy has settled in beautifully, he happily lazes about in the backyard when I am at work and wants to spend all his time with me when I am at home. In 2 months, he has already made my life much more enjoyable and sociable as he loves his bush walks and hanging out at the river. I highly recommend adopting a greyhound!" Kylie, Mount Riverview, NSW 💛🐕‍🦺

Having patience, understanding & being aware of our verbal & body language when bringing a new dog into your home is crucial for helping it settle in safely and building trust with you & your family. Putting in the work at the start will set you up for a lifetime of happiness & companionship.

For dogs, especially those who are anxious or traumatised, safety isn’t just about having a calm space to retreat to. It’s about the emotional atmosphere we…
