Cullen

Greyhound · Male

Cullen Cullen is a gentle, sensitive young lurcher. He has already come such a long way, but he needs patient adopters who will continue to help him build confidence at his own pace. It takes him some time to build trust but once he has picked his person he is absolutely devoted to his human.He’s quite cautious of new people and I noticed especially men.He’s very sweet, gentle and sensitive�Very calm in the home.Loves being out in the garden but would need a secure space as he can jump.Absolutely loves his walks and has quickly learnt what it means when the harness comes out. �Loves having a cosy, safe space to relax, whether it’s on the couch by himself or cuddled up with his favourite person.He sleeps in his crate at night which is his safe haven. �Is slowly learning to trust people and is making wonderful progress every day.�Every milestone is hard earned, making his journey incredibly rewarding to watch.His ideal home would be calm, quiet home with a predictable routine.�Patient adopters who understand that trust takes time.�Someone who will let Cullen come to them rather than expecting immediate affection. But once that trust is earned it’s so worth it �He would thrive as an only dog.He travels well in the car.Walks lovely on the lead but would pull when he sees other dogs.Strictly no cats!He can be a bit fussy with food, would eat at his own pace when he fancies it, doesn’t gobble it up. But don’t have any food on the counter because he’s not fussy when it comes to anything left on the counter. Once your back is turned he’s getting it Has no issues going up and down the stairs and loves when he gets the nod to come up and give morning cuddles.Currently in foster in Ireland.He wouldn’t be cat friendly.Neutered & vaccinated Click here for Adoption Details

About Cullen

What life with Cullen looks like

Cullen is a adult greyhound dog waiting at Norfolk Greyhound Rescue in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Cullen, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Cullen?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Norfolk Greyhound Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Cullen on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Cullen if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Norfolk Greyhound Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Cullen already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Cullen isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Norfolk Greyhound Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cullen and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
