While greyhounds love to run, they are just as comfortable being ‘couch potatoes’ and make the ideal house pet. GAP SA aims to educate people about greyhounds by showing them as the really are; affectionate, gentle animals who thrive on human companionship. 

Greyhounds they are placed into foster homes to prepare them for their new life as an adopted pet.. In their foster home, basic house and obedience training is conducted to help them adapt to living without the structured lifestyle of a race dog. It is important that once they arrive into their new home a supportive and encouraging environment is provided.
