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.
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)!
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!
Kingy is a handsome chap who is happy and friendly. He is a little strong on the lead at the moment but this would subside with regular walks once in a home environment. He is clean and confident and should adjust well to home life.
Mike is a loving boy who wanted to play when I was taking his photograph! He is getting used to life at Whittingham and seems to be settling quickly. He will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible and should suit most home set-ups. Mike has found a home!
Grace is another friendly, waggy, happy girl who loves everyone and is hoping she won't have to wait too long for a loving home. She wants to be out exploring the world and not stuck in kennels too long! She will be tested around other dogs before too long but showed no interest in our 'other breed' resident. Grace has found a home!
Hero is 4yrs old and another gentle soul who walks nicely on the lead. He will be introduced to smaller breeds as soon as possible and happily said 'hello' to our resident 'other breed' without any issue. He has been sharing with Queenie at the trainer's kennels so he would happily live with another greyhound. Could you be a hero for Hero and offer him a loving home? Hero is currently reserved!
Tyrone is 2yrs old and an extremely affectionate chap who loves a cuddle and human interaction! He should be fine around smaller dogs but is slightly strong on the lead. This should ease with regular walks in a home environment. He is clean in his kennel and a very loving boy. Could you offer Tyrone a home? Tyrone has found a home!
Lewis is 4yrs old and we will be looking for a special home for him, preferably with another greyhound for company. He is very nervous, but very loving once he trusts you. He shares with Bunny (who is full of confidence and loves everyone) so sharing with a confident friend will help bring him out of his shell and encourage him to meet new people! He is a striking boy and once he trusts you, he will be a very loyal and loving boy.
Bunny is 4yrs old and the perfect example to illustrate why black dogs should not be overlooked. She is happy, friendly, loving, gentle and the all round perfect girl! She has been snapped up on day two of her arrival at Whittingham! Bunny has found a home!
Freddie is 5yrs old and a docile boy who is very good on the lead and showed no interest in our resident 'other breed'! He will be tested further and trusts everyone in a very gentle way! Freddie has found a home!
Blaze is a very young lad who is extremely lovable, small in stature and gentle and loving. Blaze has found a home!
Shane is a happy and confident young man who is always up at the door of the kennels looking for affection. He rather blends in with the newly painted kennels, but is a lovely boy who deserves a home quickly. He would love to find a loving home before the cold weather truly sets in.
Ruth is a beautifully gentle little soul who loves everyone, is good around other breeds, gentle on the lead and loves children. She will make the perfect addition to any home. Ruth has found a home!
Millie is a lovable girl who laps up affection and even tried to sit on the vets' lap when she went to be spayed! She is gentle, friendly, quite small and a really beautiful little dog who deserves a loving home quickly. Millie is currently reserved!
Reggie is the perfect dog to suit most homes. He is quite small for a boy, gentle, calm, affectionate and good around other breeds with the usual initial care. Reggie is currently reserved!
Dash is a handsome young boy with unusual markings. He is gentle on the lead and shares his kennel with Pearl. He will be tested around other dogs as soon as possible, but is great around the other greyhounds.
Pearl is a dear little girl who loves a cuddle and will stand up with her paws on you to give affection (not always the most welcome thing when you end up covered in mud!). She has the endearing habit of picking up her food bowl and carrying it around with her, amazingly not spilling a single biscuit! She is friendly and lovable and hopes her forever sofa will be not too far away! There is interest in Pearl (pending confirmation)!
Stripey is 4yrs old and the perfect greyhound. He has been returned through no fault of his own and really wants to be home again in the warm quickly. He is wonderful on the lead, good around other breeds, great with children, gentle and happy. Could you be the lucky one to adopt Stripey and give him his forever home? Stripey is currently reserved!
Romeo is 4yrs old. He is nervous until he gets to know you but we think he will come round quickly once he settles into the rhythm of Whittingham. He is good with other greyhounds and will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible. He looks a bit ragged on the behind unfortunately, but don't let this put you off as he will become a very loyal and loving boy once he trusts you. Romeo is currently reserved!
Teddy is 5yrs old (6yrs in December) and a happy, confident boy who deserves a loving home after waiting in kennels for so long. He will be tested around other animals as soon as possible. There may be interest in Teddy pending further testing!
Tully is a handsome blue boy who walks nicely on the lead and will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible. He happily share with the girls or would be fine as an only dog (photo and further description to come!)
Rita is a dear soul who loves everyone and is happy to greet new people. She happily share with all the other greyhounds and will be a delight for any home. (photo and further description to come!)
Pam is a special girl who is hoping to fall on her paws quickly. She is great with people, loves the other greyhounds and should settle well at home (photo and further description to come!)
