Diana

Greyhound · Female · Adult · 4 years

Diana is a true couch potato and has the most gorgeous loveable nature. She is an affectionate and snuggly girl and her favourite things are cuddles and snacks (in no particular order!). She needs a patient family willing to go at her pace and build her up slowly as she hasn’t had the best start to life. She is improving each day whilst in foster but will need ongoing training within her forever home once she has a good relationship with her adopter. If you are open to welcoming our lovely Diana into your family and give her a loving and patient home, please get in touch! Diana is our gorgeous girl who is looking for a very quiet environment for her to gain confidence in due to her being very nervous. She’s not experienced any of the big, wide world yet so will need slow introductions to life. She is an ex racer and previously never lived in a home prior to moving into her foster home and therefore everything is new to her but she is starting to slowly come out of her shell each day and has been able to be left for up to 3 hours with no problems. Diana will need a home where she is the only pet and where everyone is over the age of 15 years old due to her worries.

About Diana

What life with Diana looks like

Diana is a large adult greyhound dog waiting at Dogs Trust Loughborough in Wymeswold.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Diana, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Diana?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Loughborough handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Diana on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Diana if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Trust Loughborough 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 Diana 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 Diana 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 Dogs Trust Loughborough early rather than rehoming privately; they know Diana 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.
