new arrivals/returns will be placed at the end of the list)
Chief is 6yrs old and a handsome boy who came in with Molly (who has found a home). He should not be overlooked as he is a happy, outgoing chap who was excited to come into Whittingham so should take life beyond kennels as a big adventure. He loves everyone and his tail hasn't stopped wagging. He is even wagging his tail in his photograph (despite being tied to the door to keep him still!). He will be fine as an only dog or with the company of other greyhounds. He will need careful handling around other breeds until he gets to know them.
Matte can be nervous until he gets to know you and is a little strong on the lead as a result. However, this will subside as he starts to gain confidence and it shouldn't take long before he gets into the routine and trusts people. He will need an understanding home. He is 6yrs old and is much more confident with people. He shouldn't be overlooked any longer so could you offer Matte a lovely home?
Arnie has sadly had to be returned and is looking for a home without any close proximity to other breeds. He is 7yrs old (in September), house-trained, good with children and a loving boy, but he is strong so will need an experienced home with someone who has had greyhounds before. He deserves another chance quickly as he has been very loved and his owner was devastated at having to bring him back.
Anna is 3yrs old and a gentle girl who loves affection. She is happy to be kennelled with other greyhounds and should make a great addition to any home. Anna is a special girl who is so happy and friendly. Anna will soon be looking for a special home after having a large operation on her back leg. After waiting so long, she deserves the best home going! Anna is currently reserved!
Arnie (2) is 3yrs old and a dear soul who is like a big cuddly bear. He is Jason's brother so we are hoping that he will be lucky enough to find a new home and fall on his paws quickly. He walks nicely on the lead and should be fine around smaller breeds given the usual initial care. He is a very lovable and affectionate boy who is quiet in the kennels. Whoever adopts Arnie will be very lucky. He is called Arnie the second to distinguish him from the other Arnie!!! Arnie 2 has found a home!
Blake is 2yrs old and a happy soul who wanted to go for a walk rather than have his photograph taken!! He is friendly, outgoing and playful and should suit most home set-ups.
Boss came in with Blake and he is also happy and outgoing. He is 3yrs old and would love a new home quickly as he wants to enjoy the adventures of life. He will need a few more careful introductions to other breeds, but is otherwise good to walk on the lead. He is a confident and friendly boy with a wonderful temperament.
Micky2 is a lovable chap who is quite small in stature and very friendly. He is 4yrs old. He is clean in his kennel, will make a great addition to any home and will be taken for his trip to the town as soon as possible (to see how he reacts to life beyond kennels)!
Minnie has sadly been returned. She is 6yrs old and used to the home environment, house-trained etc. She gets on well with other greyhounds and would love to find another home quickly, having had a home and knowing what it is like to be away from Kennels. Could you help her find her place? Minnie has interest (pending visit and confirmation!)
Sidney has sadly been returned. He is 4yrs old, used to the home environment and is house-trained. Although he has lived with another dog, he would be best suited as the only dog in the home. Sidney has found a home!
Jamie has very sadly had to be returned after a bereavement and change in family circumstances. He is 5yrs old (6yrs in November). His previous owner was devastated at having to give him back and so we are looking for a special home for Jamie. He is easy to handle on the lead, spotlessly clean indoors and gentle with children and other dogs (given the usual care). Whoever adopts Jamie will be very lucky and we hope he won't have to spend a long time in Kennels. Jamie is currently reserved!
Kitty is a gentle soul who can be nervous until she gets to know you, but will be even more trusting once she does know you! She is happy to share her kennel and is a dear little dog. Kitty is currently reserved!
Squeak is 3yrs old and a dear little dog. She is easy to walk on the lead and very petite. She will be good around other breeds with the usual initial care. Squeak has found a home!
Gerry is 5yrs old so although he looks prehistoric with his grey face, he is actually still a youth at heart! He walks well on the lead, has been taken to the town and should be fine around other breeds with the usual care. He is clean in his kennel and is confident and happy. He will share his bed with the girl greyhounds and is a lovely boy who should't be overlooked. Gerry has found a home!
Bella is 4yrs old and can be nervous until she gets to know you. She wants to be friendly as she wags her tail, but is then a little wary. We are sure that she will quickly come round once she fully settles. She is clean in her kennel, affectionate once she trusts you and loves her food, polishing off a huge bowl of food when she first arrived! Bella is currently reserved!
Yogi is 3yrs old and will need a special home. He is a lovely dog, but will not be suitable for a home with young children as he likes his own space. He loves his food and is settling well at Whittingham. Yogi is very affectionate and clean in his kennel. He is slightly strong on the lead at the moment but this would quickly improve in a home setting. He needs the right home, but once this comes along, we are sure he will be great!
Waggy is a gentle soul who can be slightly unsure until he gets to know you. He wants to be friendly but will need a loving home where he can be helped to feel reassured and loved. He has visitors already so is keeping his paws crossed! Waggy is currently reserved!
Ron is a happy, friendly boy who wanted to smile at the camera (or investigate it with a close up of his nose). He is clean in his kennel, loves a cuddle and should suit most home set-ups. He should be fine around smaller breeds with the usual careful introductions and he walks nicely on the lead.
Blue is 3yrs old. He is a beautifully affectionate boy and should be fine around other breeds given the usual initial care. He is strong on the lead at present so will need to be reigned in, but once he is used to daily walks, this should quickly subside. He is clean in his kennel and a happy, cheerful boy.
Vicky is 4yrs old and a very affectionate girl who loves a cuddle and is clean in her kennel. She loves her walks and is excited by new things. She is generally good around other breeds (although needs to learn some etiquette!) but with further introductions, it shouldn't take too long to interact happily once in the home environment. She is petite and good with the other greyhounds.
Lana will be 3yrs old in October and is slightly unsure until she gets to know you, although she wags her tail and wants to be friendly. She is good with other breeds and shouldn't take long to overcome her nerves and settle into the home environment. Lana is currently reserved! (pending final visit and confirmation!)
