Do you have a small dog that could benefit from some socialisation and company during the day? GAP SA is looking for volunteers with small dogs to help with their first point assessments for 2 hours, 2 days every 6 weeks (approx).

Your dog will be well looked after with plenty of pats and treats. They will assist with either green collar assessments for dogs that have been living with foster carers or for greyhounds entering the program. During assessments, greyhounds will be muzzled, on a leash and handled by an experienced assessor and handlers. All dogs will be walked around together in a secure testing area for approximately 5-10 mins to assess the greyhound’s reaction to the small dog. If the greyhound is reacting well we will allow them to approach and sniff the small dog.We are looking for dogs that are generally social and happy meeting other dogs and ones that walk well on a lead. Sessions are rostered at least a month in advance and are generally around two hours in length.
