GREYHOUND ADOPTION PROGRAM TASMANIA
GAP was established with the aim of finding loving permanent homes for these amazing dogs, transitioning them into family pets. The program also aims to educate the community on Greyhounds and why they make such excellent pets
Greyhounds are loving, gentle and a unique breed and make exceptional family pets. We offer the option to adopt, or self-foster to adopt.
Adopt
Fostering a greyhound is a super rewarding experience for both the dog and carer. Foster carers play a crucial role in a greyhound's transition from life in a kennel environment to their new life in a forever family home.
Foster
A crucial part of the adoption process, is ensuring the Greyhound and family are compatible. Through the assessment process and foster care program, we are able to identify which home a Greyhound would be best suited to. Getting this match right from the start is integral in ensuring both Dog and Family are perfect for each other.

The Greyhound Adoption Program Tasmania (GAP Tas) was established in 2009 with the vision of ethically finding forever homes for greyhounds upon retiring from racing, ensuring greyhounds live out their lives as a loved member of a family.
