(Ages are available upon request)
Morris - male greyhound
Morris 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! He is 6yrs old. (Yes, we have tweaked his name by popular demand!)
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.
Sheene - male greyhound
Sheene is a handsome and very gentle boy who just wanted a cuddle when he was having his photograph taken. He is a very docile and calm fellow who would love to fall on his paws in a special home. He may need some mores socialisation around other breeds. Could you be the lucky one to adopt Sheene? He is 6yrs old. Sheene is currently reserved!
Timmy - male greyhound
Timmy is a handsome boy who shares happily with Tess 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 3yrs 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.
Annie - female greyhound
Annie is a confident and happy girl. She walks nicely on the lead and should be fine around other breeds with initial careful introduction. She is really loving and just wants to nuzzle into you with affection. She is 4yrs old. Annie has found a home!
Danny - male greyhound
Danny is a lovely boy who is very nervous until he knows you. This makes him quite strong on the lead. But he will quickly come round and we did get a tail-wag after just one afternoon. He is fine around other breeds because he is quite nervous about everything. Update: Danny is coming round and gaining confidence. He is fine with the staff and volunteers but may be worried around new people initially. He is 6yrs old.
Prince - male greyhound
Prince is a loving chap who is happy around other greyhounds and walks nicely on the lead. He is an unusual looking boy who deserves a loving home. He is really gentle but affectionate and just wants a loving home. He is 3yrs old.
Jet - male greyhound
Jet has sadly been returned unexpectedly after 4 months in a home. He is used to the home environment, enjoys playing with a ball and is very loving. He would benefit from a quiet home without young children where he can thrive and enjoy walks. Although he is confident in the Kennels, he was unsettled by traffic so he will need patience or the company of another dog to work through that adjustment. But he's a lovely boy, loves his food and will be a super dog in the right home. Could you help Jet find a loving home? Jet is currently reserved!
Leah - female greyhound
Harry is a friendly and confident boy who would love to find his special home. He is quiet and clean in the Kennels and is used to being around children. Could you help Harry find his home? He will be tested around other breeds as soon as we can. Harry is currently reserved!
Harrison - male greyhound
Harrison is a handsome boy who arrived happy and waggy!! He will be assessed around other breeds but is a confident and loving boy would love to find a loving home now he has finished his racing career. He has met children successfully and just needs his forever home.
Liz - female greyhound
Liz was homed by her trainer but sadly had to be rushed back into his care after her new owner became ill. So she hasn't raced for some time. She is calm and friendly and proven to be good around other breeds with the usual initial care. Liz has found a home!
Brett - male greyhound
Brett has sadly returned after about 10 days at home. He would love a home where he can play as he's loved his toys and got used to the home environment. He was clean indoors and good on the lead but would suit a more active home.
Sox - female greyhound
Seren - female greyhound
May - female greyhound
May came in with Seren and also did well at her test around other breeds when she visited the town. So with the usual careful introductions, she will be fine around other dogs.
