We pride ourselves on being a responsible rehoming centre. We put the dogs first by ensuring each one finds their perfect forever home in matching them based on their needs and personality.
Each dog’s behaviour is assessed to establish their suitability in socialising with other breeds out and about, but also regarding living with other breeds, children and even other species! To do this we assess each dog with Blossom and Bumble the working Cocker Spaniels, and in very rare instances with a cat if we feel they have the right temperament. This gives us a good idea of what level of experience the home has to be for that dog.
We provide honest and open descriptions of each dog and ensure all details are given to potential adopters.
The colour chart is a rough guide. Bear in mind that many of the Yellow, Orange and Red dogs would happily live with children, the Purple ones have the potential to live with younger than 16, and Pink dogs have the potential to be only dogs, so make sure to read the blurbs fully. However, it is important to trust in the staff to successfully match you with your perfect dog, as you may find yourself matched with a different colour level than you expected.
As one of the few rehoming centres that home with children, we take our time to ensure the most suitable match. While greyhounds make excellent family pets and do very well living with children due to their incredibly passive, laid back and affectionate nature, we will generally list dogs as Blue, and more frequently Purple.
Do not be disheartened by this if you do have younger children, we want to ensure that every greyhound that we rehome...stays in that home! So we take extra care in choosing which dogs are most suitable to go home with young children so it is all smooth sailing!
But, regardless of the home situation, whether it is adult only, with children, with other dogs or even with cats, matching with your perfect dog takes time! Although with new dogs arriving constantly throughout the year, your perfect dog may just be around the corner!

Donkey🎃
Donkey is a confident, affectionate, and fun-loving boy with a heart as big as his cuddles. He’s famous for his jumpy-up hugs, making everyone he meets feel truly special and adored. At events and out and about, Donkey shines as he is completely unfazed by the world around him. During his dog test, he was a perfect gentleman, walking happily alongside Blossom. He’s wonderfully social and enjoys the company of other hounds, especially his current kennel mate, Razz, and would happily live with a calm female greyhound. That said, Donkey is just as content being the only dog in the home. He’s a real people dog who loves humans big and small, though his excitable cuddles mean he’d be best with older or dog-savvy children. Donkey is adaptable, easy-going, and will thrive in a range of different home environments. His silly, sunshine personality guarantees laughter and joy every single day. With his boundless love and happy-go-lucky charm, Donkey is ready to steal hearts and find his very own happily ever after.
Crisp🎃
Crisp is a gentle, sensitive soul with a heart full of love just waiting to be shared. He can be timid at first, but with time, patience and kindness, he blossoms into the most loyal and affectionate companion.. Crisp is currently kennelled with Candy and thrives in the company of other hounds, so we believe he’d love a home with another calm, confident dog to guide him. That said, with the right people, he could also be happy as the only dog in a peaceful home. He was brilliant during his dog test with Blossom. He was friendly, well-mannered, and clearly comforted by canine companionship. Crisp would be best suited to a quiet adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy teenagers. Busy homes with young children would be too overwhelming for him. A rural or quiet setting would be perfect, giving him space to grow in confidence. Crisp is a truly special boy who will reward your patience with the most loving, gentle friendship.
Razz🎃
Razz is a confident and fun-loving girl with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She’s full of joy, loves her humans, and brings a perfect balance of playfulness and laid-back. Razz is currently sharing her kennel with Carrot, who she’s formed a lovely bond with, and while she can be a little choosy with her doggy friends, she could live with another calm and easy-going greyhound. She’s also more than happy as the only dog in the home. Razz would thrive in a home with adults or older, dog-savvy children who understand when she needs space. During her dog test, she was calm and polite with Blossom, showing friendly interest and walking comfortably by her side – she was alert to movement at first but settled quickly once she was confident. She’s a sweet, bright, and lovable girl who is sure to bring endless smiles to her lucky forever family.
Anton🎃
Anton is a gentle, affectionate boy with a heart full of love and a calm, easy-going nature. He’s full of charm, incredibly handsome, and has a way of making everyone around him feel instantly at ease. Anton has a playful side too, and his enthusiasm for life is infectious. During his dog test, he was polite and well-mannered when meeting Blossom. He would benefit from continued positive socialisation and basic training, particularly due to his slightly higher prey drive, which is perfectly natural for greyhounds. Anton can happily live with a female greyhound but he’s also content on his own and would do well as the only dog in the home. He would suit a home with older, dog-savvy children or teenagers, and although very young children may not be the best match. Anton walks beautifully on a harness and is one of a kind. We can’t wait for him to find the loving home he deserves.
Winnie🎃
Winnie is a gentle, kind-hearted girl with a more reserved and sensitive nature who blossoms slowly but beautifully once she feels safe. She thrives in the company of other greyhounds, and we feel she would do best in a home with a calm canine companion or two. While she’s growing in confidence every day, busy environments can be overwhelming for her, so she would be best suited to a quiet, adult-only home or one with calm, understanding teenagers. During her dog test, she was initially very nervous around Blossom and found the experience overwhelming, but with gentle encouragement and patience, she managed to approach and stand beside her calmly. Winnie is a sweet and special girl who needs someone with a kind heart and a patient hand to help her continue her journey – in return, she’ll offer a rare and deeply rewarding kind of love.
Bronte🎃
BRONTE IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE FOR REHOMING!!!
This girl is truly special. She is sassy, sweet, and loving, with a heart of gold and a kind and sensitive soul. Bronte is looking for a home with another hound or two to help her transition into home life. She would prefer not to live with children, so an adult-only home is what she is after. She will make an exceptional companion.
Summer🎃
Summer is a sweet, affectionate and happy girl who radiates warmth and sunshine wherever she goes. With her friendly nature and love for people, and would happily live alongside older, dog-savvy children, teenagers or adults. She’s confident and easy-going, equally content being the only hound in the home or sharing with another greyhound or two. While her first dog test showed she was quite fixated on Blossom and may need some support with socialisation, it wasn’t reactivity—just a sign that she’d benefit from a home experienced with high prey drive or one willing to continue her positive training. Her bright personality, loving heart and playful bursts make her a delight to be around, and despite being a black greyhound—a colour sadly too often overlooked—Summer truly is the full package. She has so much love to give and is ready to fill her forever home with cuddles, fun, and a little bit of sass.
Cheddar🎃
Cheddar is a gentle, affectionate, and laid-back greyhound with a calm and reassuring presence. He is a social boy who enjoys the company of other greyhounds and has always gotten along well with his kennel mates, meaning he would happily live alongside another hound. However, he is just as content being the only dog, soaking up all the love and attention from his humans. During his dog test, he showed off his polite and friendly nature, happily greeting and easily walking alongside Blossom. While Cheddar adores people, he finds young children a little too overwhelming, so he would be best suited to a home with adults, teenagers, or mature children who respect his relaxed nature. He can be quite enthusiastic on his walks and may pull on the lead at first, so he wears a harness, which has helped him improve. Cheddar is everything you could want in a greyhound—sweet, well-mannered, and full of love, ready to bring joy to his forever home.
Nutmeg & Spice🎃
Nutmeg and Spice are a bonded pair bursting with personality and love. Nutmeg is a charming, affectionate boy with a playful and gentle nature, while Spice is a sweet, sassy, and fun-loving girl who thrives on human attention. They are social with other greyhounds and could live alongside them or be perfectly happy as the only dogs in their forever home. They’d do well in families with older, dog-savvy children or teenagers. Their initial dog test showed some confusion around smaller dogs, but with patience, positive socialisation, and time, they’re sure to improve in this area. Despite these small hurdles, Nutmeg and Spice are exceptional hounds who will bring their forever family endless joy, laughter, and love.
Edith🎃
This girl is a true gem. She holds a special place in the hearts of everyone here at the kennels. Once she opens her heart to you, she will love you unconditionally. She is a beautiful soul. Edith would thrive in an adult-only home or one with teenagers; she would struggle with children. Edith has passed her recent dog test and is a polite and well-mannered girl. You will not regret taking this girl on!
Lemon🎃
This boy is beautiful both inside and out. His affectionate and compassionate nature makes him a joy to be around. He is a laid-back cuddle bug who has a lot of love to give. Lemon would happily live alongside older children, teenagers and adults. Lemon did not pass his dog test, he was a little unsure, but we know with time and patience he will be able to pass! With a heart as sweet as lemonade, how could you resist adopting him?
Alan🎃
Take a look at this handsome boy! Alan has a wonderful and loving nature. We call him the BFG because he's so irresistible. Alan has been with us for a long time due to his reactivity towards other dog breeds, so we're looking for an experienced owner for him. Alan will do well with older children, teenagers, and adults. He's a gem and a favourite among all the staff, volunteers and students!
