The Greyhound Adoption Program rehomes retired racing greyhounds.
Quiet and gentle dogs, greyhounds make execellent family pets. GAP dogs are thoroughly temperament tested, desexed, vaccinated and microchipped - ready for a loving home.
We've seen some great dogs from GAP here at Lyndon Kennels and fully support the wonderful work they do.
New legislation, to come in this year, will give the RSPCA and Councils more powers to heavily fine and seize assests of anyone operating illegal puppy farms.
Disreputable breeders will also face the possibility of up to two years jail for aggravated cruelty.
These laws have been drafted in response to recent public protests in support of harsher penalties.
It will be compulsory for every dog sold in Victoria to be implanted with a unique microchip number which must be quoted in any advertising and at point of sale. Fines will apply to any pet store, farm or individual caught selling without the chip.
