Meet Edith, the most special girl in the whole wide world. Edith has been with us for a while now and is a truly much-loved member of our family. She is completely one of a kind, and you will never meet another greyhound quite like her.
Edith is wonderfully unique, full of little quirks and character, and that is exactly why we adore her so deeply. She deserves a home that understands her, respects her, and allows her to be fully and proudly herself. Edith is not a girl who needs changing, because she is already more than good enough just as she is.
Edith is a very self-assured girl who knows her worth. She understands the kind of love and respect she deserves, and she certainly gets that here. She does not let people in easily, but once you are part of her trusted circle, you are in for life.
When Edith gives her heart, she gives it fully and deeply, and she will look after her people with fierce loyalty and care. Her love feels incredibly special because it is earned, and once you have it, you feel like the luckiest person in the world.
She has a big heart and an even bigger personality, and there is never a dull day with Edith around. Her cheeky confidence keeps us laughing every single day, and she truly is the light in darker moments. If things feel heavy, Edith is the girl you look for.
Her quirks, her expressions, and her clever ways will have you smiling without even realising it. She knows exactly how to get her own way, and she is very good at it, but that cleverness is part of her charm and one of the many reasons she is so loved.
Edith is incredibly kind, loving, and caring. She values human companionship deeply and loves just being near her people, even when she is having her quiet chill time. Simply knowing her humans are close brings her comfort and happiness.
In her forever home, having people nearby who respect her space and understand her needs will mean everything to her. She thrives on meaningful connections and builds strong, lasting bonds with those who take the time to truly get to know her.
She is a happy go lucky girl who loves life and everything it has to offer. Edith is full of enthusiasm and curiosity, and she has really begun to take everything in her stride. Walks are one of her greatest joys, and she becomes so focused and excited that she barely notices anything else.
Exploring the world means everything to her, so she would suit someone who enjoys regular walks and adventures. Her enthusiasm for life is infectious, and it is impossible not to feel uplifted in her company.
Edith is not a nervous girl, but she can become overwhelmed quite easily, and when that happens, she needs time and space to feel safe again. She is incredibly intelligent and emotionally aware, sometimes almost too clever for her own good. She reads situations and emotions so well and will always try to look after those she cares about. Edith does not enjoy being overfussed or crowded, and she prefers affection on her own terms, but she still loves having people close by.
Routine is very important to Edith. She finds comfort and safety in structure and predictability, and she does best when life follows a steady pattern. Unexpected changes or a very spontaneous lifestyle would not suit her. The safer and more settled she feels, the better she copes with the world around her. She has already made so much progress with small changes here, and with the right home, she will continue to grow in confidence and contentment.
Edith is a truly exceptional greyhound with a heart full of love and a personality that stays with you forever. She deserves a home that sees her for who she really is and treasures her exactly as she comes. Her forever humans are going to be incredibly lucky to share their lives with such a special, clever, loving girl.
Living with Edith would feel like sharing your life with a strong, thoughtful soul who knows exactly who she is and what she needs to feel safe and loved. Edith would thrive in a home where her boundaries are respected and her independence is celebrated, where she is loved not for being overly affectionate or demanding but for being deeply loyal, emotionally intelligent, and beautifully herself.
There is something incredibly special about a dog like Edith, because once she chooses you, that bond feels unshakeable. She will stand by her people with quiet confidence, offering companionship, protection, and a sense of calm that runs deep. Whoever welcomes Edith home will not just gain a dog, they will gain a partner in crime, a steady presence, and a love that is strong, sincere, and earned, and that kind of connection is truly priceless.
Edith has been with us for a couple of years now and during that time she has taught us so much about patience, understanding, and seeing the world through her eyes. She did find a home when she was first with us, but sadly it was not the right environment for her.
The home was too much and she spent a long time feeling on edge. Living in that constant state of worry took a toll on her, and when she came back to us she was not quite the same girl we had said goodbye to. It was heartbreaking to see, but with weeks of gentle care, steady routines, and quiet reassurance, Edith slowly found her way back to herself.
Although it did not work out, it gave us invaluable insight into exactly what Edith needs to feel safe and settled. Edith needs a calm, quiet home where life moves at her pace. Busy, built-up areas and constant stimulation will overwhelm her and stop her from settling. Peaceful surroundings, slow sniffy walks, and predictability are essential for her well-being.
She needs experienced owners, ideally with sighthound knowledge, who are comfortable supporting additional needs and helping her learn that home life can be safe and comforting. Edith will need people with time and patience, people who understand that trust is earned slowly, and that progress comes in small, meaningful steps.
Edith can become overwhelmed when faced with things she does not understand, and in those moments, she needs space, calm handling, and people who can read her signals and respond gently. She does not enjoy being crowded or fussed over, especially when she is feeling unsure.
Instead, she needs respectful humans who allow her to choose interaction, offering a steady presence rather than constant contact. Having people nearby without pressure is what helps her feel secure, a quiet kind of support that lets her settle in her own time.
We have continued to gently introduce Edith to new environments to help build her confidence. She has joined us at the Clarks Farm show over the past couple of years and has exceeded our expectations each time. While she does reach a point where it all becomes too much, we listen to her, step back, and celebrate every small success.
With Edith, even the tiniest wins matter, and each one feels like a proud moment, small but deeply meaningful. With the right humans by her side, we truly believe she can continue to grow and take on more of what life has to offer.
Edith is an independent soul and needs to be the only dog in the home. She prefers having her own space and feels most secure when she does not have to share her environment. Being the centre of her humans world suits her perfectly.
While she is fine around other greyhounds when out and about, people mean far more to her than other dogs. Having her own special humans all to herself will help her thrive and feel truly settled.
Edith needs an adult-only home or one with very mature teenagers. Although she can cope with calm, sensible older children in controlled settings, a household with children would be too unpredictable and busy for her.
A quiet adult home will give her the structure, routine, and calm she needs. This kind of environment allows her to relax, feel safe, and build confidence without being overwhelmed. It also means she can enjoy being the focus of her humans attention, which is exactly what she needs.
When out and about, Edith is actually wonderful with other dogs, including different breeds. She adores Blossom and is always pleased to see her, often completely unfazed by the dogs around her.
She is polite, well-mannered, and calm, showing that her struggles are not about aggression but about feeling safe in her own space. This side of her is lovely to see and shows just how thoughtful and composed she can be when she feels secure.
Adopting Edith will be a journey. She will need multiple visits so she can build a bond before going home, and her future humans must be willing to take things slowly. She will not come out and be your best friend straight away, but once you earn her trust, you will see just how beautiful her soul truly is.
Edith is kind, loyal, and deeply devoted to those she loves. She deserves to be someone’s first choice, and with the right home, she will finally get the chance to live the calm, happy life she has waited so patiently for.
To love Edith is to choose understanding, patience, and quiet joy. In return, she will give you a bond that is deep, loyal and truly life-changing.
