How do I contact the shelter about Foster?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. RIGHT - Rehoming Irish Greyhounds Team handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Foster on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Foster if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — RIGHT - Rehoming Irish Greyhounds Team 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Foster 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 Foster 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 RIGHT - Rehoming Irish Greyhounds Team early rather than rehoming privately; they know Foster 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.

Foster

Greyhound · Female

Friendly, playful and ready to find out what home life is all about. Hello from Roz. "Roz is ready to leave kennel life behind and show us more of her lovely personality in a foster home.” Roz is a beautiful four-year-old black girl with a warm, friendly nature and a playful spark. She is happy, affectionate and gets along brilliantly with dogs of all sizes. She is also cat friendly and small dog friendly, which makes her a rare and wonderful find. She is currently on our waiting list and needs a foster home to begin her journey. Once she is settled and safe in a real home, she will show us everything she has to offer. 🛋️ A sofa to call her own. Somewhere warm and comfortable to stretch out and finally relax. 🐱 A home where cats are welcome too. Roz is cat friendly, making her a brilliant fit for a multi-pet household. 🔇 Quiet and calm. Time away from the noise and busyness of kennel life. 🤗 Human company. Someone warm and steady close by to help her build confidence and feel at ease. 🐶 Easy company with dogs of all sizes. Roz gets along well with big and small dogs alike, including small breeds. 🚶 Leisurely walks. The chance to enjoy gentle strolls and explore the world at her own pace. 🏡 A routine. Mealtimes, walks and rest in a calm, predictable rhythm that helps her settle and thrive. 📝 We will share more about Roz once she is settled in foster care. 🏡 Location: Dublin, Cork or nearby surrounding areas, or willing to travel occasionally. 👶 Children: Age 10+ and dog savvy. 🐾 Other pets: Cat friendly and small dog friendly. Good with dogs of all sizes. 🌿 Garden: Fully enclosed and secure if present. ⏰ Time commitment: Temporary, usually 2-8 weeks until adoption. • You give her the space to decompress and discover what home life really feels like. • You help her show her true personality, the one that kennels cannot fully reveal. • You free up a space so RIGHT can help the next greyhound on our waiting list. • You take her one important step closer to the forever family she deserves. Roz is on our waiting list and needs a foster home to begin her journey. She is friendly, playful and ready to show someone what a wonderful companion she will be. Her cat and small dog friendly nature means she could fit into a wider range of homes than most. If you can foster Roz, please get in touch today. Her journey starts with a foster home like yours. 🏡 Fostering is the heart of what we do at RIGHT. Every greyhound needs a real home to decompress, learn about everyday life and show their personality. It's how we make the best matches for life. • All costs covered: food, vet care, supplies. • Regular check-ins and support. • Guidance every step of the way. • Most placements last 2-8 weeks. We guide you through everything and provide full support. We ask for kindness, consistency and a warm space for Roz to feel safe. Written by the Rehoming Irish Greyhounds team. We're a group of volunteers and long-time greyhound owners helping Ireland's greyhounds find the sofas they were born for. Every post comes from lived experience of fostering, adopting and being completely won over by these gentle couch potatoes.

About Foster

What life with Foster looks like

Foster is a large adult greyhound dog waiting at RIGHT - Rehoming Irish Greyhounds Team in Dublin.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).
