We're offering both pre-matched and on the day adoptions.
Pre-matched meet and greets:

- Then, all that's left to do is meet your potential new best friend at the event.
On the day adoptions
- Take photos of your backyard and fencing to help us process your application on the day.
- Join us at the event and chat with the GAP team about your family, home, and lifestyle.
- We'll introduce you to some of our adoptable greyhounds, and if you meet a greyhound you just can't leave without, you can complete an application and adopt on the day.
Remember you'll need photos of your backyard and fencing. We'll help you complete the necessary paperwork on the day of the meet and greet.
