WELCOME TO THE

HOMING
With the easing of lockdown restrictions we have been able make progress and have been able to start the homing of our greyhounds!
This will be slow for a while, not least because vets are still restricted and so it is difficult to arrange neutering - a prerequisite for all homings.
We know that there are people itching to take a greyhound into their family and can only say - please be patient - everyone's health and safety and the greyhounds' best interests have to be the top priorities.
​
We may have to go slow and steady for the moment - but if you are thinking of homing a greyhound once the opportunity is there -
- GIVE KATH A CALL - 07723 027995
You could start the process & as soon as we can home a greyhound to you, you will be ready to go!​​
​
IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT!
​
AND SO THAT YOU CAN SEE IT WILL BE WORTH WAITING FOR - CHECK OUT JUST SOME OF THE LOVELY GREYHOUNDS ALREADY HOMED IN 2020 .....
​
Please remember that all kennel visits are by appointment only
that the arrangements are made via Kath and
will be made according to the suitability of individual circumstances for the greyhounds available at the time.
