The '''Gelert''' is a [[Wikipedia:Greyhound|greyhound]]-like creature that was added to [[Neopets]] on [http://www.neopets.com/newfeatures/jan2000.phtml January 25, 2000] as the [http://images.neopets.com/coppa/redpolypup.gif '''Polypup''']. On [http://www.neopets.com/newfeatures/july2000.phtml July 19th, 2000] the Polypup's name changed to Gelert and its look was updated.
On [http://www.neopets.com/nf.phtml?nf_date=2001-10-29 November 2nd, 2001] [[TNT]] added the [http://www.neopets.com/comps/gelert.phtml Pick-The-Gelert Competition] which featured 5 new designs for members to pick from. Both Gelerts #5 and #2 officially won (although the joke design, #3, actually had the most votes) so the two designs were combined and the final version was released on [http://www.neopets.com/nf.phtml?nf_date=2001-11-26 29th November 2001].
In general, Gelerts are described as being very loyal and brave. They value friendship above all else and so are very faithful to those they consider a friend. In the [[Neopets TCG|Neopets Trading Card Game]], Gelerts are associated with the element of fire.

==Trivia==
*As of July 2018, over 9.5 million Gelerts have been created, placing them 10th in popularity out of 55 Neopets. They are also featured in 306 different [[item]]s.
*The Gelert is said to be based on the dog in the poem 'The Grave of the Greyhound' or 'Beth Gelert'. Many variations of it exist but there is [http://www.neopets.com/gelert.htm a page] on the [[Neopets]] site itself dedicated to the story.
*When painted Spotted, the Gelert's black and white coat pattern imitates that of the [[wikipedia:Dalmatian (dog)|Dalmatian]] and the Harlequin [[wikipedia:Great Dane|Great Dane]].
