❓THINKING OF ADOPTING A GREYHOUND❓
Makants Greyhound Rescue is a well established, independent and self funded rescue (founded in 2013) with over 700 greyhounds homed by us to date. If you’re thinking of adoption we’ll be with you EVERY step of the way .
We can offer you support, BEFORE, DURING and AFTER Adoption!
BEFORE adoption:
*We offer an opportunity to meet a greyhound and ask questions with a knowledgeable volunteer. An ideal way to find out more about greyhounds as pets (by appointment only)
*We encourage you to walk the greyhounds at kennels several times to get to know the breed
DURING the adoption process:
*You will have a home visit from our rehoming coordinator to discuss suitable greyhounds and be made aware of our homing requirements (details of requirements can be found on our website)
*A two week home trial is offered before adopting your greyhound – with support available at the end of the phone during this time
AFTER adoption:
*Continued phone support where needed
*There is the opportunity to attend monthly nail clipping sessions with your greyhound, held at kennels in familiar surroundings
*Opportunities exist to attend social sighthound walks in the local area, organised by volunteers at the rescue. A great way to connect with other sighthound owners
*We have a dedicated private facebook group ‘Makants Amigos’ for adopters of Makants greyhounds, an ideal way to connect with other adopters
*An on site kennels shop, open twice weekly, for all your greyhound needs staffed by knowledgeable volunteers
Our Adoption fee is just £175 and this comes with four weeks’ free insurance which is offered through Petplan, details are provided in our adoption packs.
We have greyhounds more than ready for a forever home and we will be with you EVERY step of the way throughout the adoption process. Please see our website www.makants.uk for details of our hounds, homing requirements and an application form.
Greyhounds really do make ‘greyt’ pets!
