Vera is a lovely 7 year old ex racing greyhound. She is a stunning girl who has hung up her racing paws and is now looking for a kind warm retirement home. Grey hounds are very deciving - people think they need hours and hours of running but this is not the case. They are gentle giants who love nothing more to sleep on a comfy and have cuddles and a walk in the rolling fields a couple of times a day. If you think that you are looking for one of these gentle hounds please ask to see her she is lovely. She seems to be ok with other dogs but will no doubt chase cats and small fluffy animals. Please ask reception for more details.
