As we enter a new year we’ve continued to be extremely busy.
We’ve been contacted about numerous whippets needing to come into our care and there is rarely a day that goes by where we aren’t speaking to someone in need of help with their whippet. We are of course extremely glad that we can be here to keep whippets safe and responsibly find them new homes, but the numbers we are dealing with are quite scary and really pushing us to our limits.
We are also receiving more adoption applications than usual (over 150 in January), which is great, but please understand that most of the whippets coming into our care have specific behavioural needs. We carefully assess the whippets before rehoming and match them to the best possible homes. Just because we have whippets looking for homes doesn’t mean we will hand them out to anyone who has applied. Ensuring that the home can cope with the behavioural needs of an individual whippet and that the home is right for them is crucial to successful adoptions.
During January 10 lucky whippets left us for their new homes, and as you can see they are all doing very well.
As always we would like to thank you for your continued support.
Lisa and Katie
