Hi everyone, our family will have a new family member joining us in October so I will be going on parental leave.
I don't have firm plans for how long this will be, but will likely be emerging in January 2025. If you are looking for support before this time, please feel free to drop me an email or message via the site with a bit of detail around and I can point you in direction of where you can get help.
Looking forward to coming back and helping you and your hound live your best lives in 2025!

Hi, I'm Sian and I have been involved in rehoming greyhounds since 2016. As a coordinator of the ACT Greyhound Support Network I have been a foster carer and also took a lead in managing rehoming efforts with my partner in crime, Cindy. Over the years I have helped in excess of 1,000 greyhounds find their homes and happiness in and around the ACT.
As well as my practical knowledge of supporting and fostering new greyhound adopters, I have completed my Cert IV in Animal Behaviour and Training through the Delta Institute. I also regularly attend training and participate in communities of practice to keep my knowledge up to date.
Snooter Brown utilises force free training methodologies. That is, methods that emphasises positive reinforcement and avoids the use of aversive methods such as physical punishment, yelling, or actions which cause fear or pain. Force free training techniques include clicker training, shaping, targeting, and capturing. The goal of force-free training is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for the dog, which enhances the bond between the dog and the trainer. Force-free training has been shown to be more effective in producing long-lasting behavior changes and has a lower risk of causing fear, anxiety, and aggression in dogs.
Many greyhounds have lived sheltered lives before becoming pets, and that transition can be quite overwhelming for many. Everything is new to them, and expectations and experiences in pet life are very different from the racing industry.
Snooter Brown offers a range of services to help greyhounds live their very best pet lives. These services include one on one training and behaviour sessions, group training sessions and online options for timid or reactive hounds as well as industry education to help dog walkers, dog sitters and other interested parties learn more about greyhounds.
