❤️ MARLENE IS SETTLING INTO HER FOSTER HOME ❤️
*** URGENT ***
We are looking for a foster, or preferably forever, home for an older greyhound who has come back into our care and is struggling in the kennel environment.
Poor Marlene's story is a sad one - she was originally homed by us back at the beginning of 2022. She was a much loved little girl, but after almost 2 years in her home we had to find her a new home as her owners' circumstances had changed.
At the end of 2023 she went to what we thought would be her forever home but unfortunately it wasn't to be, and earlier this month she was again returned to us.
Marlene is confused to be back in the kennel environment and has sadly started self-harming, chewing the skin from the bottom of her feet.
We are therefore urgently looking to find her an appropriate temporary or permanent home so we can move her out of our kennels.
Marlene is 9.5 years old but behaves like a much younger dog, enjoying playing and zoomies around our paddock.
She is wonderful with adults, being affectionate and loving. She is, however, uncomfortable around children. Marlene can show some signs of reactivity towards some other dogs (both greyhounds and other breeds), so we would be looking to place her as an only pet in a home with no visiting dogs..
If your home could be the quiet, safe haven that this little greyhound so desperately needs please message our page and we will get back to you.
Marlene does need some dental work, so potential owners/foster carers must be able to transport her either to us or to our vets for this to be completed.
