PLEASE
READ... It's a fact that we do get a rather disproportionate
quantity of Greyhounds to other breeds at our kennels, which is due to
the local Greyhound track, up the road. When people decide they want to
adopt a dog, Greyhounds are often overlooked, mainly due to a
misconception about the breed, such as; they need lots of exercise,
they eat a lot, are dangerous, bad tempered, no character, etc. Nothing
could be further from the truth and for this reason, I would ask you to
read the attached article
before you decide to dismiss the idea of having a Greyhound as a pet.
You will be missing out on a pet who'll be more suitable than many
other breeds, be fine loyal companion for you and your family. Please
remember, Greyhounds are in the kennels because they can't race
anymore, not because they are unsuitable as pets, please remember this.

History
|
Patch is 10 years old, neutered,
and vaccinated.
He is house clean, good on a
lead, travels well, and loves people and children,
and mixes well with other dogs on a lead. On no
account can he be
trusted with cats.
He is big, beautiful, gentle, and
has quite a character, is strong and healthy, and loves
his food !!
For the past few months, Patch
has been living in a foster home, and although he
mixes with other dogs, we would prefer him to be homed
as an only dog, to a quiet home where he can enjoy a
garden, and to be taken out for his walks on a
lead - which he really enjoys.
He had a very short racing life,
and was kept by his owner as a family pet - so he is
used to a family home life. His owner reluctantly had
to give this gorgeous boy up due to ill health.
If you can help
Patch, please contact us.

History
|
Tina is a four year
old, spayed greyhound who is very happy and
bouncy. She is good with older kids and most other
dogs, she enjoys walking with Sam and would make
any family complete with her presence. She
is the one laying down in the background.
Ideally to be homed
with Tina but can be separated.
: OK with children 7 and up.
Tina eats anything and enjoys fetching but
isn’t mad on playing, she likes to run with you
but most of all be petted. She loves to sunbath
in the garden or snooze on the sofa. She loves
chewy things like rind sticks. Tina rolls around
on her back when she's hot indoors and leaves
her legs up in the air looking very funny!
Tina knows when she has been
naughty and knows 'out'! She will always want
fuss but will be happy to do her own thing if u
are busy. She needs to be muzzled when with out
on walks and with other dogs. She is very
confident on the lead and will inspect
everything. She likes to meet new people and
lean on them while stroked on the belly. She is
not protective of food but will guard her bones.
She travel well in car.
If you can help Tina, please contact us.

History
|
Sam is a very
underweight greyhound who came to us from
another rescue centre where he was not coping
well at all.
Ideally to be homed
with Tina but can be separated. Sam is the
one standing in the foreground.
Male, 4 ½ year old, Neutered. He
needs a calm friendly environment, with lots of
playtime and love. Sam doesn’t know many
commands but will come to you and responds well
to praise. He wants to know where you are and
lay near your feet, he loves fuss especially on
the belly and will nuzzle you if he requires
anything more. Sam has the best ears which have
a life of their own and he is a dog guaranteed
to be your best and most entertaining friend.
Just had his teeth cleaned so he
has a lovely white smile and has been neutered,
wormed, Frontlined. Sam loves to eat ANYTHING.
Sam circles when nervous or excited sometimes
barks and spins for a short time. This can be
interrupted easily and is declining now that he
is in a foster home. Travels well in the car.
Sam should not be homed with
children under 10-12, cats or small animals.
He should be muzzled in areas where other dogs
or small animals running around. He loves
woodland, open green and the dunes. His
favourite pastime is watching t.v, specifically
blue peter, property shows, music channels and
eastenders.
If you can help
Sam, please contact us.
