🐾Meet Kevin🐾- a sweet and playful 3-year-old greyhound who’s ready to bring joy and laughter into your life!

With his striking coat and gentle nature, Kevin is the perfect mix of charm and fun. He’s full of energy and loves to run and play, but don’t let that fool you—when it’s time to relax, he’s all about cuddling up and enjoying some downtime with his favorite humans.

Kevin gets along well with other dogs and would be happy to share his home with a furry friend, though he’s also content being the only dog and soaking up all the love for himself. He’s a social guy who enjoys meeting new people and is always excited for a new adventure, whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or a trip to the park.

If you're looking for an active, affectionate companion with a big heart, Kevin would love to be your new best friend!

Salt is looking for a foster home!

Salt is a 2-year-old Shar Pei x Staffy with the biggest heart! He’s a total sweetheart around the house, great with older kids, and absolutely adores being by your side. He plays beautifully with his foster family's female dog (she bosses him around and he loves it!) and he’s been exposed to lots of people and new experiences.
Salt would love to be part of a family who is willing to continue his training. He needs a big yard to play that is secure as he can jump high and loves to explore.
Salt has learnt how to share his food and no longer resource guards in the home. He's also familiar with the lead and leash walking, but is strong when he pulls and will need to be with someone who can handle a dog of his size.
He does have some complex needs: he’s reactive to other dogs (especially non-desexed males) and has had a couple of incidents in the past.
Salt would thrive in a home with one other female dog as he would love a companion. A calm home with someone who understands reactive dogs and can offer structure, patience, and love. He’s not perfect – but he’s loyal, affectionate, and full of potential.

If you are a registered carer already please pop in during our opening hours.
If you could book an appointment that would be great. Include the name of the animal you wish to foster. We cannot guarantee the animal will still be available as we do not hold animals for fostering.

🐾Meet Zoe🐾 - A Sweet Soul Ready for Her Forever Couch

Meet Zoe, a gentle 5-year-old greyhound with a heart as big as her beautiful brown eyes. With her calm nature and affectionate personality, Zoe is the perfect match for anyone looking for a laid-back, loving companion.

Zoe has left her racing days behind and is now discovering the joys of home life such as soft beds, squeaky toys, and plenty of cuddles. She’s a quiet girl who adores human company and will happily follow you from room to room, just to be near you.

She’s polite on the lead, enjoys her daily walks, and is perfectly content to spend the rest of the day snoozing by your side. Zoe gets along well with other dogs and may be suited to a home with a canine friend. She hasn’t been tested with cats yet, but her easygoing nature suggests she could adapt well with the right introductions.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s already mastered the art of lounging, Zoe might just be your perfect match. She’s ready to trade in her racing silks for a cozy spot on your couch and your heart.

Could Zoe be the one to complete your family?

🐾Meet Leo🐾 - a beautiful 3-year-old female cat with a gentle heart and a soft spot for cozy cuddles.

Naturally a little shy at first, Leo takes her time warming up to new people, but once she feels safe, her affectionate and confident side shines through. She loves being part of the action, especially in the evenings when she’ll happily join in on family time and seek out pats and cuddles. She’s easy to handle, loves sleeping on the bed, and has never hissed, she's proven herself to be just a loving, quiet presence in the home.

While Leo appreciates calm moments and enjoys spending time alone during the day, she’s also shown that she can thrive in a busier household. She settled beautifully into a lively foster home with kids and would likely do well in a family environment or with other friendly pets, just as well as she would a quieter home.

Leo is the perfect mix of independent and affectionate. Whether you're after a relaxed companion for a peaceful home or a sweet-natured cat to join your family crew, Leo could be the one for you.

Come meet Leo and see if your home is the one she’s been waiting for!

🐾Meet Lexi🐾 - a sweet and gentle 4-year-old greyhound with a heart full of love!

This beautiful girl is looking for her forever home where she can relax and enjoy all the comforts of a family. Lexi has the calm demeanor typical of her breed, and while she’s a little shy at first, once she gets to know you, she’ll shower you with affection.

Lexi has an easygoing nature and would be perfectly content lounging around the house, soaking up attention and getting some cuddles. She’s also well-mannered and is learning to adjust to life outside of the racing world. She’s good with other dogs and would likely do well in a home with a companion to help her feel more comfortable.

While she may not be the most outgoing at first, Lexi’s sweet and loving personality will shine through once she feels safe. If you're looking for a calm, loving companion who enjoys the simple pleasures in life, Lexi just might be the perfect match for you!

Come meet Lexi and see if she’s the one to complete your family!
