(new arrivals/returns will be placed at the end of the list)
(Ages are available upon request)
Boris - male greyhound
Boris is a loving boy who is quite small for a male greyhound, but he is still quite strong. This would soon improve with regular walks and once out of Kennels. He enjoys his food, is a happy boy and loves everyone! He needs some more careful introductions to other breeds but is otherwise faultless!
Glen - male greyhound
Glen is a happy boy who loves affection. He happily shares and is confident around other greyhounds. He will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible. He looks quite small in the photo but is actually a medium-larger boy (normal greyhound size)! He walks nicely on the lead, seems fine with other breeds (with the usual careful introductions) and loves his food. Update: Glen went home for a few days and was clean, quick to learn and very affectionate.
Ed - male greyhound
Ed is a friendly and handsome fellow who loves a cuddle and shares happily with female greyhounds. He needs some careful introduction to smaller breeds, but is fine with lurchers and bigger dogs. He is a really laid back chap and will slot happily into any home.
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.
Sheene - male greyhound
Loki - male greyhound
Loki is a handsome chap who should be a great addition to any home. He has been near a small dog and did well on his trip to the town. He might need a little time to gain more confidence but it didn't take him long to come round to all the staff and volunteers at Whittingham so we are sure he will adjust quickly in a home environment.
Rocky - male greyhound
Rocky is a beautiful boy who is wary of new people and can bark at visitors. However, it doesn't take him long to trust you and wag his tail so if someone is willing to give him a chance, he will turn into the most loyal and loving boy. He is clean in his kennels, enjoys his food and shouldn't be overlooked because of his initial nervousness.
Timmy - male greyhound
Timmy is a handsome boy who is getting used to everything at Whittingham and coming out of his shell. He is a little apprehensive at first but it doesn't take him long to come round.
Rhino - male greyhound
Rhino is sadly looking for a new home after a change in circumstance for his adopter. Ideally, he would find a home with another greyhound. He is being fostered in our bungalow by our staff member and his dog. He is good with both male and female greyhounds. He is house-trained, used to the home environment and very affectionate. Rhino was one of our longer-term dogs when he was with us so we would love to find him another home quickly. He will need some more socialising around other dogs and although he can be left for a little while on his own, he would ideally have someone who is around at home. He is an intelligent dog who has fun moments and then sleeps all the time upside down!
Foxy - male greyhound
Tess - female greyhound
Tess and her sister, Peggy have come in to find their homes. Peggy has found a home, but Tess is still with us. She's a dear little soul, gentle and loving and will be a very special girl in the right home. She may need some more interactions with other breeds to get used to them, but this should not take long. She has had a dental so has nice fresh breath too!
Bert- male lurcher
Bert is a larger lurcher and a powerful boy. He is neutered, vaccinated and extremely loving. He is good around the other breeds and wants to play, but he is very strong so we will only be homing him to someone who can definitely manage him. He is super-affectionate and an absolutely lovely boy. There is interest in Bert pending further work and time!
Xanadu - male greyhound
Xanadu has sadly been returned. He really thrived at home and was clean, great around other breeds and perfect in every way. He would be best suited to a home with older children who can be calm around the dog. He will be the perfect addition for anyone looking to adopt a second dog or first time greyhound. Xanadu has found a home!
Sid - Male greyhound
Sid is a lovely boy who has also been waiting for ages for a space in rehoming Kennels. He is a gentle boy who loves a cuddle and is clean in his kennel. He is good around most other breeds with the usual initial care. He is fine around all greyhounds too. He would love to find his special home before winter kicks in. Sid is currently reserved!
Lady - female greyhound
Lady is 6yrs old and has been in a home for over 2yrs. Sadly, she is looking for a new home due to the imminent arrival of a new baby. She is a really affectionate dog, very good on the lead and very petite. She does like her own space so we won't be homing her with young children. She is good around most other breeds and house-trained. She will be a great addition for any home. Could you give her the forever home she deserves? She is now back with us and desperate to be back in a home and out of kennels.
Jet - male greyhound
Jet is a handsome and friendly boy who would love a new home. He is confident and loves everyone he meets. He can be slightly strong on the lead at first but this would soon calm down with regular walks.
Frankie - female greyhound
Frankie is a lovely girl who was very good on the lead on her trip to the town and showed herself to be fine with other breeds with the usual careful introductions. She is very gentle and lovely to walk. She will make a super addition to any home. Frankie is currently reserved!
Eleven - female greyhound
Eleven (or El) has sadly been returned after 4yrs in a home. There is a new baby in the family and as she prefers her own space, she has had to come back to look for a new home. She really deserves her next home to be her forever home. She is house-trained, used to the home environment and good around other dogs with the usual careful introductions.
Winks - female greyhound
Winks is a dear little girl who loves a cuddle and is good with other greyhounds. She arrived with her sister, Dreamer, but they haven't been together for a long time. She will be tested around other dogs as soon as possible but is an affectionate girl who would love a kind home. Winks has found a home!
Alice - female greyhound
Alice is a dear little soul who is slightly unsure until she knows you but quickly wags her tail. She was fine with other breeds on her trip to the town and just wants a warm home to snuggle into for winter.
Carol - female greyhound
Carol is a lovely girl who loves a cuddle and proved to be good with other breeds on her trip to the town. She just wants to be loved and having a loving home to call her own.
