Adoption applications are now open for Ricky.

Ricky is the ultimate fun-time greyhound who’s equal parts heartthrob and goofball! With his sleek good looks and joyful personality, Ricky is always ready to turn an ordinary day into a party. He absolutely adores toys – especially stuffed ones – and during his assessment, he proudly zoomed around the yard with his favourite toy in his mouth, radiating pure joy. Ricky also LOVES other dogs, big or small, and gets along beautifully with canine companions of all sizes.

Despite his playful energy, Ricky is a well-mannered gentleman who would thrive in an active home. He’d be delighted to have a doggy friend, but he’s just as happy to entertain himself with his toy collection if he’s the only pup in the house. Ricky would do best in a home without small animals like cats or birds, and without young children. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, toy-toting, tail-wagging best friend – Ricky is ready to Rick’n’Roll into your life!

 Ricky’s suitability:
✅ Great for apartment or townhouse living
✅ Can live with small to large dogs
✅ Suitable for older children (6+ years)
✅ Fulltime worker
✅ Would love a quiet family home
✅ Needs a solid fence
✅ Indoor/outdoor living
✅ Would love an active family

If you are interested in adopting Ricky, submit an adoption application form and our adoption officer will contact you to discuss your family’s requirements and match you with the right GAP greyhound for you. More information is available on the adoption process.

Greyhounds can be at different stages in their development as they transition to pet life. The greyhound that is perfect for your family might take some time to match.

Our greyhounds are not all tested with cats, livestock, or poultry. If you have a home with these, please contact us and we will match you with the right greyhound for your circumstances.
