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.
Frankie - male greyhound
Frankie is a lovely boy who is good on the lead and has so far proven good around other breeds of all sizes. He can be nervous until he gets to know you but quickly comes round. He is clean in his kennel and adjusted to life at Whittingham quickly (so we are sure the same will prove correct once he goes into a home environment). Frankie went home for a few days and was spotlessly clean indoors, mastered the stairs, great around other breeds and settled so well. We would love him to find a new home quickly. He was only returned as the people felt they had made the wrong decision adopting a dog. He will be the perfect dog.
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
Sheene is a handsome and very gentle boy who just wanted a cuddle when he was having his photograph taken. He seems a very docile and calm fellow who would love to fall on his paws in a special home. Could you be the lucky one to adopt Sheene?
Betsy is a loving girl who shares happily and is very affectionate and friendly. She is good around most other breeds (with the usual initial care) and although slightly stronger on the lead than some, we know this will improve with regular walks. She's a super girl! Betsy learns quickly and will be a great addition to any home. She would benefit from having a garden where she can have a quick burst of energy before she crashes on her bed like greyhounds do! She can share with other greyhounds and is a curious and loving girl. She has proven to be good with children of all ages with the usual care.
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 and Evie - male and female greyhounds
Rhino and Evie are sadly looking for new homes after a change in circumstance for their adopter. They can be separated but would ideally find a home with another greyhound. They are good with both male and female greyhounds. They are 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. Rhino 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.
Rhino is being fostered /Evie has found a home!
Foxy - male greyhound
Foxy loves a game and is a very affectionate boy. He has unusual colouring with hints of dalmation! (But he is a full greyhound). He is a little strong on the lead at the moment but this would soon improve with someone willing to give him the chance.
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!
Sammy - male lurcher
Sammy is a lovely smaller boy who is very affectionate when he gets to know you. He really comes round quickly and is great with other breeds of dog. He's a very special boy who just wants to play. He can be strong on the lead but this should improve as he gets to learn about the world. He is neutered, comes with four weeks free insurance and the same kit as the greyhounds. Sammy is super loving and just wants affection.
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!
Alice - female greyhound
Alice has been returned through no fault of her own and only due to the adopter's new circumstances. She is a lovely girl - house-trained, used to the home environment, gentle, friendly and affectionate. She is used to other breeds and will make a great addition to any home.
Alice is currently reserved!
Elsie is one of our most recent arrivals and is a little nervous at the moment. We are sure it won't take her long to come round. Elsie shares happily with other greyhounds and will be a really loyal girl as she just needs to warm up to people she meets. Whoever adopts her will be very lucky.
Pixie - female greyhound
Pixie is our other recent arrival. She's a confident and friendly girl. She shares happily with other greyhounds and we are confident she will learn quickly when faced with life beyond kennels. Pixie has found a home!
Rodney - male greyhound
Rodney (who was previously known as Captain) has sadly been returned. This was his original photo from 2yrs ago so a better one will follow! He has lived with another greyhound and a small child but would be best suited to a home on his own without any distractions. He will need care on walks as he does react to cats and he will be tested again around smaller breeds. An experienced home would be best. But he's super-affectionate, really friendly, loves a cuddle and used to being at home so used to the home environment.
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 is currently reserved!
Brian - male greyhound
Brian is a very gentle boy who shares happily with everyone and loves a cuddle. There is interest in Brian (pending visit and confirmation)!

Brew is a handsome chap who has been waiting with his trainer for a long time for a space to become available in rehoming Kennels. (Further description to come as we get to know him).

Sid is a lovely boy who has also been waiting for ages for a space in rehoming Kennels. (further description to come as we get to know him)!
