Clarks Farm Greyhound Rescue

This is a great place to get a rescued greyhound.
They also do boarding for greyhounds only.
Most of the greyhounds are ex-​racers who are injured in a race (usually healed well, but just cant race anymore) or too old.
Most are usually between 3 and 6 years old. They do sometimes get younger ones if they are injured or it is discovered they are not good enough to race.
Before these sort of places popped up, alot of these dogs were put down. There is nothing wrong with them, they just are useful to the owners anymore.
A greyhound is a lovely pet. Despite what you may think, they don’t need alot of walking. (Approx. two 20mins walks — obviously they will do more, but do get tired!).
Our dog spends most of the day asleep.
Clarks Farm match a dog to your family as best as they can, they do have cat friendly dogs sometimes too.
The people there are lovely. Alot of people donate their time there, to walk dogs etc. and there is generally a lovely atmosphere.
