Aspall is a beautiful ex-racing greyhound with a heart of gold who is looking for a home with owners who can give her the love and attention she has never had before. She has always been kept in a kennel and has never had a place to call home or a comfy sofa to lie on, so we would love to find her an owner who could provide this for her.She is affectionate and enjoys the company of people and it would be really great to find her a loving forever home as soon possible. She could also potentially live with children of 12+ years after suitable meets at the Centre.Aspall loves going out with her Sighthound friends and having zoomies in the secure paddocks. She does walk nicely on the lead, but will need to wear a muzzle in public places due to being an ex-racer. She could potentially live with another dog of similar breed and/or size pending successful meets at the Centre, but she is not suitable to be homed with small dogs or cats.Weight: 22kg approxCan you offer Aspall a fresh start in life and a home she has never had before?

He lost his owner… and now he’s lost his home too. Bailey didn’t do anything wrong. The only thing that changed was that the person he loved sadly passed away.

Meet Bear Bear is a handsome little terrier who came to Ferne after the sad passing of his previous owner. He is now looking for a loving new home where he can thrive. Bear is a lively and affectionate dog with plenty of character. He loves playing fetch, walks nicely on a loose lead, travels well, and is house-trained. He is also comfortable being left alone for short periods of around 2–3 hours.

Bear could live with sensible older children aged 13 and above, subject to careful introductions.
