Are you right for Prancer?

Prancer is a friendly girl who just loves to say hello to all the humans. She is good with other dogs and pending a successful meet at the centre could live with a neutered dog. She has been a real treat on the lead, walking nicely and the prettiest prance and floaty trot! She did perk up when a pheasant took off, so prey drive is there like most sighthounds. So far Prancer has liked all treats offered and would be happy to indulge in enrichment food games, although the frozen Kong did confuse her!

Is Prancer right for you?

If you are looking for a pretty Saluki lurcher to join your family, take over your couch and snooze in the sunshine, this lovely girl could be for you. Having been left as a stray, she has spent time in the stray pound and will need a calm, gentle and understanding family to encourage her into home life. Prancer is approx. 8 months old and cannot wait to be invited into her forever home. Prancer would prefer a garden of her own to relax and play in; (She does the best zoomies) - this would also be handy for encouraging her to access toilet breaks and continue her house training. She’d like someone to be at home most of the day as she settles in. She enjoys a good scratch and will happily lean into you for more, she does jump up to snuggle you close, she is extremely affectionate.

How our rehoming process works

1
Create an account and fill out our application form

We’ll review your application
We’ll review your application against the dogs in our care at your chosen centre. If we think we have the right dog for you, we’ll be in touch as soon as possible. If we don’t hear back from you, we will close your application for now, and you can reapply when you’re ready.

We’ll keep your application open for three months and keep looking for a match
If we don’t have a dog for you right now, we’ll keep your application open for three months and keep you in mind for any new dogs that arrive. If within this time you see another dog you are interested in, you won't need to apply again but you can amend your application by...

If we’ve found a dog who seems right for you, we’ll invite you to come and meet them at the rehoming centre.
Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance to build a bond before making a commitment to give them a new home. By taking some time at the beginning to make sure everyone’s comfortable, an adoption is more likely to be successful.
We may also arrange a home visit with you, to see how your house will be set up and check that the garden (if you have one) is secure. This may not be necessary, though, especially if you’ve adopted from us before. Where you already have dogs, we may accept a reference from your vet as an alternative.

If we haven’t found the right match, we’ll continue the search together
If we haven’t found the right dog for you within three months, we’ll let you know your application is closed. We’ll invite you to apply again so we have up-to-date information about you, and we’ll keep looking.

We’ll support you to embark on a new life with your dog
When we’ve matched you with a dog, we’ll help you welcome them to your home. After adoption we’ll keep in touch to see how you and the dog are doing. If you need any advice or support, we’re just a phone call away.
