Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare

Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare We are a registered independent charity based in Hersham, Surrey devoted to the caring for and homing

Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare is devoted to caring for retired racing greyhounds and finding them homes. We are self-funding and rely on the kindness and generosity of our supporters and the general public. We care for approximately 50-60 greyhounds at our kennels in Hersham, with the majority of these gifted onto us by their owners or trainers once their racing days are over. However,when necessary

we do step in and help those less fortunate greyhounds who are at risk, as and when we are able. We take in all colours and personalities regardless of their homing chances. We operate a ‘no destruction’ policy, which means that no greyhound will be put to sleep except on health grounds when there is no other option. For those greyhounds with long term medical or behavioural issues we have The Sanctuary – their home for as long as they need it. We actively promote the fact that greyhounds make wonderful pets and adapt to life after racing very well.

😎 SUMMER WALKING HOURS - 8AM FROM NOW ON 😎

Walking at the kennels will remain from 8AM from now on, throughout the coming summer months. In order to provide consistency to dogs, volunteers and staff - and due to the hard to predict nature of British weather 😅 - we will be keeping the earlier hours in place until further notice, even on cooler days.

Please note that on hotter days, walking hours may be reduced in order to keep the hounds safe from the heat ☀️

😍 Sweet, Gentle Dakota😍

Dakota is looking for her loving home. A volunteer who did a video says: "Dakota seems such a small, sweet girl. I met her at the end of her walk, having a fuss, but saw her walk and she walks nicely. Apparently enjoyed walking with another greyhound. Most greyhounds live most their lives in kennels, but adapt well to homes - with our understanding. They're amazing, often gentle beings.

😍Lovely, Handsome Mario😍

6 year old Mario has been in a home but now looking for his forever home. A volunteer did a video and says:

"Mario was in a home for 3 years and due to a change in owner circumstances finds himself in kennels :-( He's a lovely boy, happy in a home and will know his way round one, is affectionate, has a gorgeous trot when he walks and walks nicely. Please let's share him to help him find a chance of a home again.

😍Joyful, Cuddly Minnie😍

Minnie is looking for her loving home. A volunteer did a video and says:

"Minnie seems such a happy girl. Tail wagging all the time, full of character and love. She enjoyed meeting people and was an all round joyous girl to be around. Greyhounds spend most their lives in kennels, so need understanding while they gradually adjust to the world outside. But they adapt wonderfully and love home life.
