One organisation is looking to match retired racing greyhounds up with prospective owners looking for a furry friend.

Greyhounds as Pets is a charity designed to match people up to the hound that suits their needs - depending on their lifestyles and family circumstances. 

Events and Volunteer Coordinator Dawn joined the Afternoons team to explain the organisation's process.

"We really try to keep our process simple for the humans in the sense of not making it this crazy journey - but at the same time, making sure that the doggo is going to be loved and taken care of and that it's ending up in a good home."
