Greyhounds make wonderful pets.
They are for life, not just for racing and they all deserve a second chance.
Greyhounds are elegent, very intelligent, laid back, lazy and need little exercise.
They thrive on love and affection, adapt quickly to the family way of life and make very gentle and loyal pets

Black Greyhound

Sadie is our 74th fostered Greyhound. She is a pretty 3 year old who is looking for a home where she can be cuddled, played with, loved and given the reassurance when out walking that other animals will not harm her. She is house trained, spayed, inoculated and microchipped.  Sadie had a very anxious start at the beginning, missing her mother and sisters badly and settling into a household with an elderly dog who was ailing and with a routine that wasn't quite as settled as normal meant Sadie took longer to settle than normal. She is an extremely loving, friendly and playful dog who enjoys meeting people and travels well in the car. Following a structured program Sadie is slowly

learning to overcome her anxieties and fears when out walking. We are not there yet but she is now much better on the lead, meeting other dogs is becoming less of a problem and she is now very settled in the house and the perfect companion. Sadie needs a lot of love and reassurance so loves to sleep next to another dog and if possible using the other dog as a pillow so a home with another laid back dog whom she can cuddle up to for company and follow their example when out and about would be just perfect for her. - Can you help us find her the forever home she needs?

Over 40,000 Greyhounds are bred each year in the UK and Ireland.
Thousands of Greyhound pups and youngsters are put to sleep each year because they don't reach the grade.
The average age for a working Greyhound is 4 years old when they are no longer needed.
The normal life expectancy of a Greyhound is around 13 years.
A very small percentage are re-homed - click here to see the top ten reasons for adopting a Greyhound.

We are working in conjunction with Dumfriesshire & Cumbria Greyhound Rescue in that we foster rescued Greyhounds and Lurchers - house training them and helping them to adapt to the family way of life until they find their forever homes.

George in April 1997
George was about nine years old when he was rescued.
He had been very badly treated and we only had
him 3½ months when he died.
He was our first true love.
He was our 'Gentleman George'
and we were devistated when he died.
Bobby with Penny in September 2002
Bobby and Penny arrived the day after George died
and this picture was taken of them in September 2002.
Fostering Greyhounds is our memorial to our darling
Penny who died when she was nearly 12½ years old.
She took quite a while to settle in because she'd had
quite a hard life but she turned into an angel.

I cannot emphasise enough how grateful I am that we started this web site. Initially it was to follow the diaries of our foster dogs so we wouldn't ever forget them and in doing so we included a diary of our own dogs. Having done this it has helped us remember the happy days we had with George, Penny and Bobby now they are gone. If any owners of the foster dogs on our site would like to do the same and include a diary with pictures of how their dog or dogs are getting on then they are most welcome to do so. Simply email us your diary information and pictures and we will include them on your Greyhound's page. If you don't have access to email simply write your diary and post it to us so we can type it into your Greyhound's page for you.
