Just Whippets Rescue had a fundraiser for these two boys to help them get back to full strength. The Charity received a phone call to ask for help, they were being kept in a portable cabin along with 17 dogs and various horses and chickens. Unfortunately, through no fault of their own their elderly owners are receiving palliative care in hospital so no longer able to care for their small holding. the age of these dogs was unknown but at that time thought to be around 13 years .

We saw a post on Animal Lifeline UK this poor girl aged around 10, a saluki who was in season and in desperate need of a rescue space. She was said to be a super friendly gentle girl. Good with dogs she was chipped but owner ‘sold her years ago’.

Holly who used to be called Molly is another hound that we helped in January this year, although she is in a forever foster home the cost of her care remains with the rescue

You will notice that this will be the second gift sent to the lovely Maggie, older dogs needs change quickly and when being investigated and treated for larger dogs in particular it can become very expensive.

Joey the Greyhound was returned to Hectors Greyhound Rescue at the age of eight and a half year . On arrival, Hayley decided to foster him as she could see his mouth had been neglected. By Monday morning, Hayley had phoned the vets at who said to take him there that morning.

Miss Maggie received a request from a wonderful man who set up and runs sighthound rehoming Uk, through this work he has met many people. to cut a long and sad story short following the death of someone he knew, the wonderful Maggie found herself without a home.

This is Rudi who is 9 a sad case the detail of which we don’t need to go into, needless to say he had been adopted 4 years earlier and the shock the rescue had when they saw him again was one of disbelief.

Sometimes things fall into place Molly had to go into rescue at the same time as an elderly owner had lost her companion, so instead of kennels a foster home was waiting for 11/12 year old Molly. It was love at first sight and the Sadly beautiful Molly isn't without health problems as is to be expected due to her age.

This is the lovely Ginny a very pretty older lady who found herself in the care of Fall in Love with a Rescue.

This was the rescue’s first dog returned to them due to the financial crisis

This is the very sad and depressed Kiku, she was adopted 5 years ago with her brother, but due to a death in the family her owner was starting to struggle. In being quoted a £1,200 vet bill to sort out her teeth he knew he wasn’t going to be able to help her.

These two beautiful ladies were surrendered into the care of Greyhound Rescue Wales Lucy and Lady are 9 years and 11 years old respectively.

This is Sophie, she was a working lurcher and life had not treated her to kindly, at 11 years old she was in need of some TLC.

These 2 lovely fellows are in the care of Barley Greyhound Sanctuary. Jedd is the youngest at 9 years old and Glen is the older statesman at 11.

Dear Prinny had to go back into rescue after her owner passed away, Prinny had spent 8 years in a loving home but thankfully as in most cases the rescue did not hesitate to take her back.
