Clive - male greyhound

Clive
is a handsome and friendly boy who is confident and happy.  He has met a few other breeds and may need some more careful introductions but it won't take him long to realise he can interact happily around other dogs.  He is clean in his Kennel and very affectionate.  He is 4yrs old and a favourite with our volunteers.  He has a few special toys that he plays with in his kennel.













 
Timmy - male greyhound

Timmy is a handsome boy who shares happily with female greyhounds and really longs for affection and love.  He was a little apprehensive on arrival, but there is no sign of that now as he is full of confidence and always at the door looking for the next piece of excitement or to stick his head out of the door to get the attention of the next passing human!  He would love to find a home. He is 4yrs old.













Wizz - male greyhound

Wizz is a loving and happy boy who is very calm around the other greyhounds.  Wizz was fine with a small visiting dog and also did well on his trip to the town.  He is a confident and happy chap who loves company and really wants a home.  He is super affectionate and such a loving dog.  He is 4yrs old.














Brett - male greyhound

Brett has sadly returned after about 10 days at home.  He would love a home where he can play as he loved his toys and got used to the home environment.  He was clean indoors and good on the lead.  He is a very small male dog and looks more like a female greyhound in stature.  He really deserve a chance.  He is 5yrs old.










Titch - female greyhound

Titch and her sister, Belle, came into us after an urgent plea when their racing owner became ill.  They are both beautiful little souls and small.  They will be further assessed as we get to know them.  She is perfect around other breeds of dog.  Her sister has found a home so now we hope it will be her chance!  She is a little more lively than some but she's a loveable girl and we want the best of homes for her.  There is interest in Titch (pending confirmation)!







Manny - male greyhound


Manny is a lovely boy who loves everyone and adores a cuddle.  He shares happily with the female greyhounds.  He is quite bouncy but really affectionate. He is always up for saying hello to the visitors and is a happy, friendly chap. He is 3yrs old










Rocket - male lurcher


Rocket is a young lad who is a mixed breed (lurcher) and is extremely loving and friendly.  He's a powerful chap so he would need someone who could manage him... and he needs more exercise than the greyhounds.  He has been in a home so is house-trained and is used to the home environment, but he is not suitable with young children as he can jump up and be quite strong.  He would benefit from training/an activity where he can use his brain! 




Magic - male greyhound 

Magic has sadly been returned.  He has lived with another greyhound and small dog but is nervous with men so would be best with a quiet household and one used to dogs with this trait.  He is a loving boy once he gets to know you but does need his own space and quiet time.  Could you help Magic get back into a loving home?  He is 3yrs old

 












Des - male greyhound 

Des is a friendly and happy boy.  He is Princess' brother so we hope he is as lucky as her because she is thriving in her home.  He is clean in his kennel, enjoys his treats and is a calm and laid back boy. He is 3yrs old.   Des is currently reserved!
















Nick - male greyhound 

Nick shares happily with female greyhounds and is very affectionate and friendly.  He loves everyone and enjoys his food!  He's clean in his kennel and will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible.  He is 5yrs old. Nick has found a home!














Spirit - female greyhound

Spirit is a gentle and loving girl who is quiet in the Kennels and clean.  She will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible but seems the ideal dog!  She is great with the other greyhounds and travels well in the car.  She seems the ideal first time greyhound too.  She is 3yrs old.















Willow - female greyhound

Willow is a very petite girl who is adorably cuddly and very friendly.  She won't be homed with very young children as she can get a bit playful but she has no malice at all and is so affectionate.  Whoever adopts Willow will be very lucky indeed.  She walks well on the lead and will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible. She is 3yrs old.  Willow has found a home (pending final confirmation)!









 



Orange - female greyhound


Orange is a confident and happy girl who loves everyone and is always at her door waiting for the next person to pass by!  She is quiet in her kennel and although a little strong to start with on her walks, she quickly calms down.  This will improve as things become less exciting!  She will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible and is a lovely girl who just wants a loving home.  She is 3yrs old. Orange is currently reserved!












Spice - female greyhound

Spice is a gentle girl who just needs a little bit of time to come round to you.  Once she trusts you, she will be loving and friendly.  She will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible and deserves a loving home.  She is 3yrs old.




  




Storm - female greyhound 


Storm is a confident and friendly girl who is very enthusiastic about everything new that she is encountering.  She's quiet in the Kennel but looks forward to coming out in the paddocks or going for a walk.  She would love a home where she can play and be loved and cared for.  She will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible.  She is 2yrs old
