🐾❤️ Forever Home Friday ❤️🐾
We are delighted to share that Ziggy is home...forever! 🎉
Our gentle giant Ziggy adores fuss and attention, and we know he’s going to be thoroughly spoilt in his new home in Somerset. He’s also gained a beautiful greyhound sister who will no doubt be very happy to show him the ropes!
Wishing Ziggy and his new family a lifetime of love, happiness, and sofa snuggles together 💕🐾

🐾❤️ Forever Home Friday ❤️🐾
We’re overjoyed to announce that Pika, now called Daisy, has found her forever home in Worcestershire! 🎉
Daisy is a friendly, confident girl who loves exploring new areas and zooming off-lead. Playful and affectionate, she’s already settling in beautifully with her new mum and dad.
Lucky Daisy is now living with some of our amazing volunteers, who enjoy showing off just how amazing greyhounds can be at events. Her calm, happy nature perfectly reflects how carefully we match our dogs to their new homes as once she’s fully settled, Daisy is expected to become an Ambassadog. She'll help other hounds find their second chance at life - just like she did! 🐾
We wish Daisy and her family a lifetime of love, fun, and happiness together! 💕

There once was a greyhound named Henry,
Whose nature was peaceful and friendly.
He’d greet you with grace,
A soft, happy face,
Then snooze through the day rather gently. 🐾
🍀 Happy National Limerick Day! 🍀

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week, and did you know, caring for a dog can help our mental health in many ways, including: 🐾 Increasing your physical activity. 🐾 Providing companionship. 🐾 Reducing anxiety. 🐾 Helping you meet new people. 🐾 Adding structure to your day. But remember, it’s not just all about you; your dog needs to have good mental health too, and that is something we are passionate about here at Forever Hounds Trust. Having a dog is a serious commitment; you’ll need to have the time, money and energy for a dog, as well as a suitable home environment. Otherwise, it could have the opposite effect – both yours, and the dog's mental health could suffer. Would you like to introduce a dog into your life to help your mental health, but aren’t sure if the long-term commitment of adopting is right for you? Fostering is a great
