Northumberland Greyhound Rescue was originally established to rehome greyhounds from independent “flapping” tracks, where welfare standards were historically lower. As conditions have improved and these tracks have become far less common, the charity now mainly rescues dogs from trainers at professional tracks across the North East. Each greyhound is given the time and care needed to transition from racing life into a loving home. Prospective adopters are welcome to visit and walk the dogs by prior arrangement, helping ensure the right match for both dog and owner. The charity is dedicated to giving every greyhound a safe, comfortable retirement as a cherished family pet.

A beautiful young lurcher dog, looking for a special home. came to us after being picked up as a stray and we believe he hasn’t had the best start in his short life, several homes and dumped. He is wary of strangers, especially men but can be won over with treats, time and patience. He is currently in a foster home with kids (the kids adore him) and 3 other dogs. He loves being around other dogs but being young he does get silly so probably best suited to a calmer dog for company. He loves his long walks and is great on the lead. If you would like to find out more, give us a call. This boy really needs time to trust people again and deserves the best home for life

Zeke is super clean in the house, the perfect couch potato, loving his bed or sofa. When out he does need help getting used to seeing other breeds, and needs someone willing to give him time to learn about the life outside of kennels. He adores being around people, cuddles and treats
