R2R are celebrating Flight 100 which departs this evening for Los Angeles! 🎉✈️🐾
Yes, Flights 4 Greys has now flown over 500 greyhounds to our partner Adoption Rehoming groups in the USA and Canada, so that these dogs can enjoy Pet Life!
Pictured here are Scotchie, Speedy, Babs, bonded sisters; Nina & Angie, Ivy, Banjo and Atlas who will all soon be appreciating the comforts and love of foster homes with Southern Arizona Greyhound Adoption.
The inability to find enough pet homes for racing greyhounds in Victoria prompted this initiative by R2R and we just love seeing the pics and videos of our greyhounds getting to be spoilt pets in North America, instead of languishing in kennels.
Our Thanks to the R2R team of volunteers who work tirelessly to make all this happen and of course not forgetting our volunteer drivers who must do early morning van runs to Tullamarine and numerous vet visits for vaccinations.
Obviously, none of this would be possible without the dedicated work of our North American Rehoming groups who have the same ethics and strict policies as R2R in conducting home checks and approving only the best homes for our Aussie greyhounds. 🐾💜

Amigo is one of our “emergency” dogs that R2R agreed to take in at short notice. His racing owner was ill in hospital, and Amigo was living solo in the garage (with access to the backyard), and someone dropped him food every day.
Faced with a shortage of foster homes, we were left with no alternative but to place him in kennels, and the decision was made to send him to the USA to find a forever home through one of our partner adoption groups. This decision turned out to be crucial for his survival. Greyhounds like Amigo undergo thorough vet checks before they're cleared for travel, and it was during this process that an unusual heart murmur was detected. It was recommended that he have an ECG and subsequent analysis by a Cardiologist. Unfortunately, this all unfolded on the Friday afternoon before Christmas, and despite frantic phone calls, everywhere was closed for the Christmas break.
Sometimes, one needs to trust one’s gut feeling, and R2R President Bec decided to take him home and not back to the kennels after his ECG in January, while he waited for his Cardiology appointment. It was a big decision, as Bec has two cats, and we had no idea if he was cat-friendly (luckily the cats survived!). This decision again proved lifesaving as Amigo's condition unexpectedly worsened rapidly the following night. He was struggling to breathe - requiring Bec to drive just over an hour, late Saturday night drive by to an emergency vet in Melbourne.
The amazing team at R2R all agreed to give Amigo the best chance at life. After spending a worrying couple of days at the emergency vets undergoing tests, being on oxygen and medication, Amigo showed incredible fighting spirit and was finally well enough to walk out of the clinic.
His subsequent diagnosis by the Cardiologist of mitral valve dysplasia was heart-wrenching, confirming a terminal condition despite his young age of 2 ½ years. Yet, through an extensive medication regimen, Amigo has now blossomed and thrived, s

Yes, Maisie is looking for a forever home where she can exhibit her talent for carrying around soft furnishings to find a location that will improve the ‘feng shui’ of your home!
This mat was carried in and out of my office half-a-dozen times before she decided to guard it in her bed (see photo in comments), while deliberating her options!
Maisie is a small, sweet, loving 2yo blue gal who will keep you endlessly entertained with her playful antics. She is surely the cutest greyhound you will ever meet.

🐾 Meet Milo, Our Bright-Eyed Boy Ready for a Forever Home! 🐾
🚨 A Story of Survival and Hope: Milo's Heartworm Journey 🚨
We are thrilled to share that Milo, a 4 ½-year-old greyhound, has triumphantly overcome a major health hurdle. Discovered during a routine check, Milo was diagnosed with heartworm, a potentially fatal condition, especially prevalent in northern Queensland where he raced. Fortunately, his condition was caught in the early stages, allowing us to administer a 3-month treatment regime. Today, Milo is a picture of health, with a hearty "All Clear" from our vets!
🌟 About Milo: A Companion Like No Other 🌟
Milo is 4 ½ years old and more than just a survivor; he's a lovable, confident, and friendly dog seeking a forever family. Here are some things you should know about him:
Requirements: Grassed yard for his 'Zoomies', and a family with children over 8 years. NO Cats or small dogs.
Milo is curious, loves to explore, and is an ideal walking companion. He's not too keen on small dogs but is improving. His playful nature and love for ball-chasing will surely bring joy to your home. Milo is fostered with a female greyhound and they've become the best of buddies.
🏡 Home and Habits 🏡
House Manners: Excelling in foster care, Milo understands commands before entering the house or eating his meals.
Training: Responds to bed training and somewhat selective about car rides!
Diet: Not fussy and loves his meals.
He thrives with company, so a home where someone is often present or works part-time would be perfect.
🐶 Ready for Adoption: Are You Milo's Forever Family? 🐶
Don't miss the chance to welcome this remarkable and resilient greyhound into your life. Milo's journey from a heartworm patient to a happy, healthy dog is truly inspiring. He's now eagerly waiting for a loving home where he can share his affection and playful spirit. Could that be with you?

10yo Kiwi just wants to find a warm loving couch! 🐾💜
Alas, he’s never had a chance to live as an indoor pet and now his owner is unable to care for him, so Kiwi is stuck in kennels.
Kiwi is a friendly, outgoing, personable, affectionate boy who is good on lead. He’s lived with other greyhounds and is fine around medium and larger dogs.
Can you open your heart and home to give this lovely gent the retirement he now so deserves?
