Gilly – 2 year old female Greyhound

Gilly is a 2 year old female Greyhound who will be a very pretty girl once her scars have healed and her fur grows back. She is very sweet and as she failed to make the grade, will probably be cat tolerant, if guidelines on cat training are followed.

Gilly is great with other dogs and people and is just a generally lazy hound who just wants and very much deserves, a home of her own. Gilly is currently in Kennels near Ashford in Kent.

Dave – 6 year old male Greyhound

Big Dave is very elegant 6 year old Greyhound. He is quite a character and a great deal of fun to be with. He was locked in a shed for a while after retiring from racing and is therefore not used to being around dogs, other than sighthounds.

He just gets excitable but this can be managed by using a harness and giving a firm no. Dave could be left for 3-4 hours a day so long as there were other dogs for company. Dave is in a foster home in Kent and is housetrained and very laid back in the home. Dave needs an owner who will appreciate his funny quirky ways.

Fly – 5 year old female Lurcher

Fly is a very beautiful, petite, Lurcher who has been used as a puppy machine and a working dog. Thankfully her owners decided to retire her at age 5, and she is now looking for her forever home.

Fly needs an experienced Saluki owner, who will be around for most of the day and understand her quirky Saluki ways. Fly is very affectionate and loves to be with you and be cuddled. She is housetrained and walks very well on a lead, but doesn’t have great recall. She is very good with other dogs, but is definitely not for cats. Fly is currently in foster care in Surrey.
