Meet Larry!
A Gentle Soul Searching for His Forever Home 🤗🐾
Gorgeous lurcher Larry came into our care recently as a stray. We don’t know his age, but we estimate that he is between one and two years old.
When he arrived he was a little underweight and understandably wary of the world, but he has captured everybody’s hearts with his kind eyes and gentle nature. Larry really is a typical lurcher, who loves stretching his long legs in glorious zoomies around the field. Once playtime is over he loves to stretch out on the sofa and he adores fuss and attention.
As he has been quite nervous we have been giving him the space and time to decompress and it is wonderful to see him starting to relax and come out of his shell. He hasn’t yet been out for a walk and he hasn’t spent much time socialising with other dogs. However, he is quite accepting of the dogs in the neighbouring kennels, so we feel that he may be able to live with another calm dog, subject to careful introductions at our kennels in Buntingford. As he has such a placid nature we are happy that he can live with children.
This affectionate boy has so much love to give to the right family; all he is asking for is a warm sofa to call his own, lots of gentle strokes and the knowledge that he is

ADOPTION PROCESS
We have a number of animals in our care. Most are homeless through no fault of their own and are looking for furever homes and owners who can give them the love and attention they deserve.
Please take a few moments to familiarise yourself with our adoption process:
Step 1:
The animal is admitted into our care, and assessed by our team.
Step 2:
The animal is examined by a vet, who treats any ailments or injuries.
Step 3:
The appropriate team leader will liaise with the potential adopter to get to know them and assess whether they are a potential purr-fect match.
Step 4:
The potential new owners meet the animal, and decide if they want to adopt. New owners may be asked to visit the animal several times before the adoption takes place.
Step 5:
A pre-adoption home visit will then be made to new owners home to meet the members of the household and to ensure that the environment is safe.
Step 6:
If the visit goes well, you will be asked to collect the animal and to make an adoption donation (amount on request) as well as to sign an agreement to care for the pet with a commitment to return them to us if you can't continue to do so.
