CELIA CROSS GREYHOUND TRUST

Call Directions Website

We are a small independent rescue devoted to sighthounds in need. Every hound who arrives becomes part of our family and stays as long as they need.

We provide safety, love, and dedicated care until they find a forever sofa to call their own. Celia Cross Greyhound Trust became a registered Charity in 1993, following a move to Sun Valley Farm, which is our home today. Sun Valley is based in outer Guildford on approximately 12 acres of stunning Surrey Hills countryside. Surrounded by woodland and rolling hillsides it really is heaven for our rescue hounds. The kennels boast a fully enclosed 6 acre field where the dogs are exercised multiple times a day, as well as luxury kennels with under bed heating, soft fluffy duvets and access to their own outside run! Dogs are assessed on arrival and their lives put back together. Our dedicated team of staff and volunteers help many a traumatised hound adjust to a new and loving environment. We aim to heal not only physical wounds- some from the track and others that indicate prolonged abuse- but the emotional wounds that are not always immediately obvious. Each dog who comes through our gates is allowed to settle in at their own pace, and if they wish, will be kennelled with another dog so they can socialise, snuggle up and play just as dogs should. We work hard to make sure our dogs are happy, spoiled rotten and we strive to create a homely family feel in our kennels for our residents until they are ready to be placed into the right home. Sun Valley is in the safe hands of Jane Thompson. Jane has dedicated her life to dogs, working with them for over 30 years. She is supported by a board of fellow trustees, fabulous Kennel staff and an extensive team of valued volunteers.

I visited Rokers today to re-stock the dogs’ pantry with some of their favourite goodies. Lucky Arnie was already in the yard as I was unpacking the car so he managed to bag himself a sneaking treat before dinner.
Arnie is such a wonderful boy and is still waiting for his forever family to come and find him.

Another happy tail to tell you all is for our handsome Reggie who has left us to join ex Sun Valley girl Daphne.
It was love at first sight for these two and Reggie was smitten from first glance. We didn’t even get a chance for an official gotcha pic with Daphne and Rebecca as Reggie went off for a trial sleepover and never came back….. early reports are that he is settling in fabulously and the dog love birds are getting on perfectly.
Be a happy boy Reggie, you certainly have been such a wonderful boy for us to love during your stay with us; it’s now your time to shine like the star we always knew you to be.

We’ve had lots going on down at Sun Valley so grab a cuppa and catch up with the updates I need to share with you all.
First up, is for our gorgeous Dolly who had her 2nd go at Adoption Corner after her original family sadly decided to return her suddenly. Thankfully we had a wonderful family ready to snap her up and wow what a life Dolly is living.
Alison, Ben, Luca, Gabe and Isabella are long time friends of Sun Valley and we knew that Dolly would be the perfect match for ex CCGT boy ladybug Jasper. These two young hounds hit it off immediately and the deal was done.
Dolly has settled in so well and the two dogs spend their days doing zoomies and bitey face to their hearts content, leaving senior ex CCGT girl Molly watching the craziness of the younger pair at a safe distance.
Be happy Dolly, you certainly have the most perfect family to love and cherish you.

Another beautiful happy tail to tell you all is for our gorgeous George.
Our lovely lad has left us to join his new family for his new chapter of life.
Zoé, Ellie and Kirk were very excited to be taking their boy home with them to join ex Sun Valley girl Daphne for a lifetime of adventures together.
George came into us in a real state after being found underweight, wounded and shaven. His wounds are healing, he has put lots of weight on and his coat is growing back, this beautiful boy was never going to allow his abusers to break him and now he is enjoying the life he should have always been afforded.
Be a happy boy Georgie, you really have been such a wonderfully easy boy for us to love during your stay with us.
