When you adopt a rescue dog you won't change the world but you will change the world for the dog you adopt.
When you have been matched with your dog we are happy to reserve him or her. However, we can now only reserve a dog for 2 weeks.
We want to help as many dogs as possible and if the kennels are full of dogs who already have their home, it blocks the space for all the lovely deserving dogs who are waiting to join us. Consequently, when prospective forever people visit there aren't any dogs for them to be matched with. We appreciate your support and understanding - it helps us help as many dogs as possible.
** The best way to contact us is to call our rehoming team on 07716 557876 **

Brindie
Greyhound - Male - 7 years
Brindie came to us in 2023 from a home. His person was unable to continue caring for him for medical reasons. Before coming to us he had lived in his home for 15 months.
Brindie’s story gets even sadder, we thought he’d found his happy ending when we re-homed him. Recently he was found wandering the streets by 2 lovely people who contacted us. The people who committed to him did not want him back. He is currently being fostered by the people who found him but they are unable to keep him long term because of their long working hours.
Brindie is perfect, a little quiet and shy but still friendly and affectionate. He has shown amazing resilience and is still happy to be in the company of humans. He enjoys meal times but isn’t a huge fan of kennel life and would like to be back in a home as soon as possible. Brindie is also good on his lead and enjoys his walks.
Brindie needs a home where he can feel safe wanted.
If you think you might be able to offer Brindie his forever home please contact our rehoming team.

Meet Bonnie, she is a typical friendly and affectionate girl who is looking for her forever home.

That and her food, she loves meal times and as many treats as she’s allowed. Bonnie has always lived at racing kennels until now so everything is new to her. When out on her lead she can be a little unsure of herself and responds well to being reassured – her confidence is growing by the day and the more she sees of the world the more she is getting used to life away as a pet dog. Bonnie enjoys to curl up and snooze in comfort and is hoping her forever home comes along soon so she can take her rightful place on the sofa.

Greyhound - Female - 6 years (Oct 2018)
Mags has had an unusually long racing career. She raced up until she turned 6 in October and is still very much full of life an energy. Mags has quickly adapted to retired life and although she is currently in our rescue centre kennels she has spent time at home with the Greyhound Rescue North East staff. She enjoyed being in a home, chilling on the sofa and going for walks, she particularly loved it when she got to visit the dog play park and run in an enclosed, safe environment – this made chilling out on the sofa even better after she had let off some energy. Mags would like a home where someone enjoys doing these activities with her and a garden where she can enjoy being outdoors. Food and meal times are an exciting time for Mags, she definitely loves her food and treats. She is a loving friendly character who will bring joy and fun and happiness to whoever is lucky enough to have her in their life.
