Lacey

Greyhound · Female · Adult · 4 years

Lacey is a lovely girl with such a gentle nature. She has not experienced much life outside of the racetrack and so can find new experiences and environments worrying. Once she knows you, she likes to lean in for a cuddle and a gentle fuss, she can take time to build a bond so her new family will need to visit her several times to build a bond and she would like to visit her new home to feel comfortable with the environment before adoption. Lacey is such an angel and will make a wonderful companion to someone who can be patient with her and help her come out of her shell in her own time. Lacey is a 4 year old Greyhound. She is looking for a calm, quiet home environment as she can be a timid girl. Lacey gains a lot of confidence from being with another dog and so she is looking for a home with an existing calm dog that she can look to for reassurance and can help her settle into home life. She could join a home with children of Older Secondary School age and above who are able to appreciate her nervous nature. Lacey will need her own secure garden to provide a safe space to help her settle into her new home. Once settled, leaving hours could be introduced.

About Lacey

What life with Lacey looks like

Lacey is an adult greyhound dog waiting at Dogs Trust Snetterton in Snetterton.

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 Lacey, answered.

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