Molly Mole is a very friendly, very cuddly lurcher who is about the size of a whippet. She was found as a stray so we don’t know if her actual date of birth is correct (making her 14 months so she will grow bigger) or if she is about 18 months old – in which case she will remain smaller. Either way she is very playful and full of fun.
She loves cuddles – she will wrap herself around you and happily snooze the evening away. But she does need adventures and great days out – fun walks and friends to play with. She will also need someone around for most of the day.
Please remember she is not a small greyhound – we do not want her being returned because her owners cannot offer her what she needs.

In these early days, it’s your responsibility to keep your new dog safe by keeping his world small and calm. Take things slowly and gently build up to more exciting experiences – too much, too soon can be overwhelming and may make the adoption harder for him.
Please remember to stay calm and relaxed throughout this settling-in period. If you feel anxious or stressed, your new dog is likely to feel the same. Greyhounds and some lurchers are incredibly sensitive, emotional souls and are very good at picking up on our moods.
Before applying to adopt, please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the 3-3-3 rule. This is some of the best advice available to help a new dog settle successfully into their new home.
3 days – In the first three days, your dog may feel scared, anxious or overwhelmed. He may also test boundaries as he tries to understand his new environment.
3 weeks – After around three weeks, he should start to feel more settled and become familiar with his routine. This is often when his personality begins to shine through.
3 months – By three months, your new dog will truly understand that this is his home. He’ll feel relaxed, secure and trusting, and much more like himself.
