Meet Norman!
Where Elegance Meets Endless Affection
Norman, a beautiful champagne coloured lurcher, recently arrived in our care as a stray. We believe that he is only about one year old and despite being a youngster he is the most placid and gentle boy.
We very quickly realised that Norman would make a wonderful companion for some of the dogs who struggle with kennel life. He has been paired up with a couple of other dogs and they have been getting on really well. He can certainly share his new home with another dog.
Norman loves his walks and he walks beautifully on the lead. He is a typical lurcher as he will stop suddenly to stare at the horizon when he sees something like a bird in the distance. He does get particularly excited when he sees a squirrel!!
As well as walks, Norman loves craves affection and human connection. He is certainly gentle enough for a family with children and would flourish in a home where he is part of the family.
Do you have a sofa big enough for this gorgeous boy to stretch out for lurcher snoozes after long country walks? If so, he could be just the boy for you.

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.
