Astra
Racing Name: Choices Barkley
Date of Birth: September 2021
At the moment a scruffy, little mouse of a girl who is, we are sure, going to become the proverbial swan 🙂 Astra has already put her big girl pants on and is becoming braver all the time. She is showing her fun loving and cheeky character to us now and it is adorable 🙂 Loves her walks and was polite, almost disinterested in the terrier. A real sweetheart who will make a great addition to somebody’s family!

Baker
Racing Name: Beggers Bullet
Date of Birth: July 2021
Super handsome chap with great manners and a happy demeanour. He’s like a puppy at times and can be over-stimulated by noise and movement. Met the terrier and whilst initially pretty rude, settled without too much trouble. Walks like a dream until something exciting happens lol A great boy who just needs exposure and to realise he’s retired now. Time, patience and more experiences should help him become the great pet we know he can be 🙂

Betty
Racing Name: Ballyblack Betty
Date of Birth: February 2021
Betty was a scared little mouse when she came in to us. Bred and raced by the same person, so has led a very insular little life 🙁 HOWEVER – she’s turning into a cheeky, affectionate and demanding little madam since she’s realised that life here is good! She still pulls the scared card when meeting new people but behind that is a super girly who will liven up someone’s life – she certainly makes us all chuckle daily here 🙂 No malice in this girl, but she would still prefer a rural or semi rural home where she can blossom (and rule lol). A firm favourite here 🙂

Connel
Racing Name: Scattered Canelo
Date of Birth: January 2020
Connel has been in a home with 2 other dogs, so is house trained but unfortunately after quite some time, was becoming increasingly dominent with them. A high energy boy who loves people but needs some rules and boundaries to make him a really happy boy. He is bright and learns quickly but this also means he learns good & bad in equal measure, given the opportunity! Has been out and about quite a lot and loves his adventures, he will however approach any human for a fuss! A great boy who maybe needs to be the only dog in the home. Connel deserves a second chance, could you be the one to give him this??

Daz
Racing Name: Bitcoin Dazzler
Date of Birth: September 2020
Another striking chap who is a favorite with the staff due to his good manners and laid back attitude. Super tolerant of his nutty kennel mate, for which he needs a medal!! He’s a bit more switched on out walking but still an easy enough guy. Is waiting his turn to venture outside to the park but a clever lad who will soon adjust. Can be overlooked coz he’s not in your face but will make a great pet we’re sure 🙂

Duchess
Racing Name: Tommys Duchess
Date of Birth: March 2021
What a super girl she is, bigger than your average girl but beautiful manners and everything to like. She was thrown in at the deep end and did a meet & greet at Asda, a dog show and a country fair in her first 10 days with us! Apart from initially being a little worried by the noise from the stage at the country fair, she has taken all this in her stride. A lovely girl who will make a great addition to any family 🙂

JoJo
Racing Name: Millbank Jojo
Date of Birth: September 2022
A super pretty little girl, who walks nicely and didn’t hate the terrier on sight lol. Jojo can be a bit scatty but she’s a lightweight, so not a problem. Jojo loves a ball and can carry one around for ages but does give it up with no problem. Being female, she does have an opinion and will soon tell her much bigger kennel mate off, if he steps out of line 🙂 A super girly who will liven up someone’s life 🙂

King
Racing Name: One Cool King
Date of Birth: July 2020
Another lump who doesn’t know his size lol. A big, bouncy lad who has a certain joie de vivre and who you can count on to make you laugh. Tested with Bugley (the terrier) well, once Bugley told him to take it steady in no uncertain terms, backed off and learnt to approach with less enthusiasm! A great boy who learns quickly but who would need an owner experienced enough to curb his enthusiasm and enjoy his love of life. A lot of fun for the right household 🙂

Phil
Racing Name: Ballyphilip Fab
Date of Birth: June 2019
A handsome boy who just LOVES people. Will make a bouncy, wagging beeline for just about anyone who even glances his way lol Great with other greys and since spending some time out and about, is now really tolerant with other breeds too. He walks well on his daily sabbaticals around our woods and as long as he has a confident handler, enjoys trips out as well. He’s not the bravest boy and can be overwhelmed if not reassured. He can be a bit vocal for attention but is quiet if he hasn’t got an audience lol A great chap with loads of character, would do well either in a home where he’s not left too long or with another dog for company, of any breed (subject to introductions). A real cuddle monster looking for people he can call his own.

Rebel
Racing Name: Ballyblack Rebel
Date of Birth: April 2020
Got to admit this is one I’d take home if there was room at the inn! A handsome, well mannered chap who doesn’t bat an eye at other breeds but has oodles of character once he knows you 🙂 A bit of a lazy bones who would rather have a belly rub than go out for a wee in the morning, he talks to you and throws himself upside down lol. Having said that, he loves his walks (once he’s up and about!) and strolls along happily admiring the scenery. Needs to get out and about yet to see if this over excites him but I would doubt it 🙂

Sammy
Racing Name: Touchdown Baby
Date of Birth: August 2019
Sammy is a delightful smaller girl, who has super manners and is always pleased to see you. She shares well with her kennel mate and is no problem around other greyhounds. She does however not like other breeds at all 🙁 Very early days and if she can just get more exposure, we are sure she will improve as she’s a clever girl. Apart from this, the perfect pet, so we’ll work on her here and see where we can get. Such a shame but nobody’s perfect!

Smartie
Racing Name: Dark Slayer
Date of Birth: November 2018
Who would call a dog Dark Slayer?? Especially one as nice as Smartie? A big lad who has settled in well but can get excited by new things. No real aggression towards the smaller dogs but can be rude around them when he gets too stimulated. Around kennels an easy, happy lad who is enjoying his time with us. Smartie just needs a bit more exposure to the real world. A great boy 🙂

Yummy
Racing Name: Smooth Ride Home
Date of Birth: April 2022
No we didn’t pick the name at random – her ear tattoos are YU MMY 🙂 A lovely girl with the right balance of happy but not bonkers 🙂 Yummy is a happy girl who will kennel with just about anyone, even the more challenging boys! Loves her walks but isn’t too strong on the lead, although she can be keen. Has been out and behaved well, just excited to meet everyone and everything. She needs just a little more exposure with other breeds but is not aggressive just a bit over-enthusiastic. A super girly who would love an active home 🙂
