About Harry
Hi, my name is Harry!
First off, I am very new to this pet life experience, but I am definitely loving it already! My favourite things include long walks and my dinner, Oh my, it is the best, how glorious food can be, I sure had no idea. I am also obsessed with my pig, I lover to chew it and play with him all the time.
Not to toot my own horn but I am very sweet, a characteristic I flaunt daily. It’s also my birthday very soon, and I will be turning 3. I know, it’s a big one and I hope I get super spoilt (wink wink). Although, the best birthday present I could ever wish for, would be my furever home. I really hope that’s you, and I promise you won’t regret choosing me …(and my pig).
No cat or small dog applications please.
No children under ten.
No full time workers unless working from home or there is another dog
We only consider applications who compete our Gumtree Greys online application.
When this is done we can make contact to discuss adopting a greyhound and potential suitable greys currently in foster care.
Adoption details
Dogs are pack animals and Greyhounds, in particular, are very familiar with being surrounded by other dogs in their racing kennel environment. For this reason, when left alone without people or other dogs for company, they can be prone to separation anxiety which can manifest in destructive and/or noisy behaviour. Yes, they may "grow out" of it after a few weeks in their new home, but why put the dog through that stress to ultimately live all day alone, while everyone is at work? As a result we do not rehome dogs into households where they are left on their own for more than 4 hours per day, without either people or another dog for company.
During the COVID crisis, not all of our rescued Greyhounds will have the usual socialisation with other dogs so we may advise to use a muzzle in some situations until the dog is fully socialised.

Following your initial application, we conduct a home check. Our dogs are placed on a two week trial. The adoption fee is paid at time of placement and reimbursed if the trial is unsuccessful.
After the trial period is deemed successful, the adoption process is finalised.
