Can live with: Experienced Single FemaleI am a cuddle bunny when I am a good boy.I am not reactive to other dogs and can be lovely to walk.I need someone around most of the time and a garden to play in and sunbathe.I need an experienced owner who is understanding, patient and can help me work through my issues.My favourite thing to do is to fetch a ball and also to dig a hole for it after I have finished running.Not suitable to live with children"Alan is a lovely dog 90% of the time. He is a personal favourite of Jane's and Carolyn's, but he does have issues so he may, unfortunately, have to be one of our resident dogs if we cannot find the right owner. Alan is happy here at Maxi's Mates and we love him to bits!"

I am a big soft, affectionate lad and I enjoy a lovely cuddleI walk lovely on the lead and I don’t pull very often despite my sizeI do need a single person’s home because I do bond so much with the one person. I want a very best friend and somebody to spend the rest of my life with. I also always like to be with them so I wouldn’t like somebody that left me for long periods of time.A single male Owner would be perfect for me.I love company and I like to follow my special person around and just chill out with themAlpha is such a nice big gentle boy. He is a little lost at the moment because his Owner died. He is looking for another best friend that he can spend all his time with. He walks, lovely despite the fact that he could pull. He loves treats but more than anything he loves the person that he bonds with.

I am a little nervous and can be wary of new people but once I do know you, I am very friendly and affectionate.I can pull and be reactive when I see other dogs. I'm a nervous boy you see and I am struggling in kennels which is making me very stressed when I go outside.A quieter home with lots of time spent feeling safe and secure with my new owner or family. I'm not happy in kennels, I would be more confident in a home environment.An experienced owner who can help me be a little bit braver, take things slowly, walk in quieter areas so I can learn that walks are fun and not scary.I love playing with toys and being brushed."Benji is a handsome and energetic boy who is always ready for fun! Whether he’s dashing around the paddock, spinning in excitement, or zooming in joyful sprints, his playful spirit is truly contagious. He absolutely adores cuddles and will happily lean in for a good back scratch. Benji is an affectionate dog who will brighten your days with his playful antics and warm snuggles."

Can live with: Adult only home - No petsLoving, playful, friendly, kind and sweet.Reactive to other dogs on walks.Adult only as I have issues with sharing my toys. I love snuggling and being warm and cozy. I would like someone to allow me the run of the house especially snoozing on the sofa and their bed.Someone with a big garden for me to play in as I do find walks stressful. Having a large garden where I can run and play with my toys would be perfect.Not suitable to live with children."Chester had a bad start in life. He had never been taken for a walk and this is mainly the reason for his issues as he was not socialised properly. But despite that he is lovely, funny, sweet and such a character. He springs to life when he sees children and jumps up and down with joy. Unfortunately he does not like to share his toys so for this reason he cannot be re-homed to a family."

I am a happy lad and I do like playing with some dogsI do not pull on a lead most of the time except when I can be reactive to certain breedsI will suit a family home and could even live with another dogI need an understanding owner as I am Deaf but that doesn't stop me living life to the fullI like racing around the paddock and having funDexter is very quiet in his kennel and seems not to be reactive possibly as he can't hear noises that sets other dogs off barking. He can be a little funny with black greyhounds he does not seem to like them but apart from those he is good with dogs. Dexter is a beautiful lad and has so much potential to fit in to a lot of homes.

I am a lovely dog and love people but I do not like other dogsI will react to other dogs - especially other malesI am very friendly to people and I love being with them. A active home would suit me or one that someone is home most of the time as I love human companyAn experienced owner who will help me on walks to not react to other dogs. I would prefer to walk in more remote areas so I can just enjoy time spent outsideI love tennis balls and I love racing around the paddocksHunter would play all day in the paddocks chasing tennis balls if he could! It's his favourite thing to do. He is super friendly to people always ready to say hello. We hope in time with bonding and security in a home he will get better with his reactiveness to other dogs. He is worth the effort and training as he's a beautiful lad.

Can live with: Adults/ teenagersI am very friendly and excitable. I do jump up in excitement so I need a confident owner that realises I am just happy to be outI am quite strong and I can walk nicely with other Greyhounds. I haven’t really seen other breeds before so I can be a little bit reactive. I am getting better with this though.I think I would prefer an adult only home with maybe teenagers. I already am improving so much with people at Kennels but it was a bit of a shock to me leaving my sheltered life. I am doing so much better now I am in the outside world with a little help from humans.A strong confident owner that will continue to help me improve when I am walking amongst other breedsI don’t really know how to play with toys just yet, but I am trying. I enjoy racing around the paddocks burning off my energy in ZoomiesLenny is doing so well with us. When he first came in, he was surprised by other breeds and reacted to them. He had never seen them before. But he is coming on leaps and bounds and as typical of the Greyhound, they are so lovely and friendly and we are sure this improvement will continue with a new owner
