(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.

 

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.

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! She is 6yrs old.

Will - male greyhound

Will was quite nervous and worried when he arrived, but we are sure he will come round when he trusts everyone and adjusts to life at Whittingham.  Will did well on his trip to the town where he encountered other breeds without issue.  He will be worried by unknown people but once he adjusts to the world and looks to you for reassurance, he will be the most loyal dog.  He is 4yrs old. Will is currently reserved!

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 is currently reserved!

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. 

Sasha - female greyhound

Sasha is a confident and happy soul who ate a whole bowl of food on arrival and wanted to get to know everyone as quickly as possible!  She's very loving and will thrive in a new home where she can experience adventures beyond kennels.  She is fine around other breeds with the usual careful introductions.  She is 3yrs old. Sasha is currently reserved! 

Lucky - female greyhound

Lucky is a friendly and loving dog who would love a loving home.  She is friendly with other greyhounds, getting used to the routine quickly.  She should not be overlooked as another black greyhound - they are all unique and special! She will be a great addition to any home.  She is 4yrs 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 3yrs old.

Pearl - female greyhound  

Pearl is a lovely girl who shares happily with other greyhounds and is confident, affectionate and loving.  She has perfect teeth but looks a bit ragged with her coat at the moment (but this will soon improve).  She's been waiting a long time for her space so we hope we can get her the home she deserves as soon as possible.  She will be tested around other breeds asap.  She is 5yrs old.

Millie - female greyhound

Millie is a friendly soul who arrived with Pearl after waiting for a space for a long time.  She's been moved around a bit in her life so would love some stability now and a loving home.  She shares happily with other greyhounds.  She will be tested around other breeds as soon as possible. She is 4yrs 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?
