Welcome

 Denzil.jpg

Welcome to East Riding RGT website.  We hope you enjoy reading some of our latest news and finding out what's on in the future. We have had a very successful time since our launch and have homed many greyhounds (some past middle-age) and all have settled into their new lives very well - some are enjoying better social lives than us! We receive lots of fantastic picturesof the greyhounds in their new homes, at shows and on holiday.  We love to see them all having exciting lives with lots of new adventures.

 
Greyhounds make fantastic pets!             Black_dog_runs.gif

They are loving and laid back and such great characters that you cannot fail to be smitten by them!  We welcome any enquiries about our greyhounds (especially our black dogs) -  and would ask anyone who is thinking about getting a dog as a pet to consider a greyhound first.     Contact us via this website today or call Jay on 01482 503944

Every greyhound that we home has been or will be neutered, fully vaccinated and has had a full vet check including dental work.  The greyhounds in our care have now also been microchipped.  Every greyhound comes with a collar and lead, box muzzle, house collar, full homing information pack, 4 weeks free insurance, free shower proof jacket and a 15 kilo bag of food.  We do ask for a donation for the Trust.

Anyone wishing to see us is welcome to come along to any of our events - full details on our Events page.  We have a stall with lots of 'greyhound goodies' to buy and you can meet some of the dogs that have already been homed as well as dogs from the kennels.

Christmas Appeal 2011

We would like to say a huge THANKYOU to all those who kindly made donations for our greyhounds in kennels over the festive season.  We were able to provide some new cosy duvets and covers and a festive feast of special treats and biscuits, which are still being enjoyed by the dogs in our care.  On behalf of the greyhounds - THANKYOU!
