🐾💚 Happy National Greyhound Day! 💚🐾

For over 30 years, Greyhound Rescue Wales has been dedicated to giving rescued racing greyhounds the second chance they deserve. Since our founding in 1993, we have worked tirelessly across Wales to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome greyhounds and lurchers, helping thousands of dogs make the transition from kennel life to cherished family pets.

National Greyhound Day is an opportunity to celebrate the incredible greyhounds who have found their forever homes, remember those still waiting, and thank the adopters, volunteers, supporters and foster carers who make our work possible.

If you've ever thought about adopting a dog, consider a greyhound. You may just find your perfect best friend.

Pam in the poster is looking for a forever home along with her friends, and you can find their details below 👇

From everyone at Greyhound Rescue Wales, thank you for supporting our mission since 1993 and helping us build a brighter future for greyhounds and lurchers across Wales.

This is Watson 💚

Out in the grass, ears doing their own thing, legs everywhere, looking like he’s running straight into the week ahead…

Watson might not be the kind of dog who throws himself at everyone straight away, he takes a little time, a little patience, and a little understanding. But once you’re his person? That’s it. You’ve got a loyal, gentle, quietly affectionate boy who will choose you every single time.

He’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply. The kind who watches you, learns you, and then leans in for those soft, earned moments that mean so much more because you worked for them together.

And out in our secure field, when he runs like this, free, happy, full of life, you can see exactly who he is underneath it all: a lovely boy who just needs someone to give him that chance.

So here he is… running forward, hoping this might be the week his person finds him 🤞💚
