Having spent a significant chunk of my career managing the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of retired racing greyhounds for a similar charity; I can vouch for how much of a rewarding role this will be for someone. Retired athletes are often overlooked and misunderstood and some of them can take years to adapt to their new lives outside of racing but nothing a bit of hardwork, patience and dedication can't help! To anyone in North Cornwall or just across the border and willing to travel...the sighthounds need you! 💚🩵🤎
