DOG OF THE MONTH: RED

Red is our 'second longest stay' resident and is such a lovable boy who really needs a chance. He has been to a home for a couple of nights and was found to be spotlessly clean, very affectionate and very lazy! He just needs careful handling around other breeds which is the only reason for him being a long-termer. He is no trouble in the kennels and will thrive in the home environment if given a chance. He was involved in the Greyhound Trust's prison scheme so spent some time away from us being pampered by prisoners. We feel he has served enough time in kennels so would love him to finally fall on his paws. Could you give Red a chance? All our greyhounds are neutered, microchipped and come with four weeks free pet insurance.

FEEDING

Please ensure you are feeding your greyhounds enough food. We have a recurring problem with dogs being underfed. Ribs and hip bones should be nicely covered and not protruding. (Of course, some greyhounds are naturally more slender but as a general rule, bones should not be sticking out). Three large mugs of biscuits plus something tasty for the boys... and slightly less for the girls is the general rule of thumb. Boys generally weigh between 32-39kg and girls between 26-33kg (depending on the size of the dog). We give out feeding guides so please email if in doubt.
