LOU (female)

Greyhound · Unknown · Puppy

LOU (female) D.O.B. 3.7.23 NO CATS NO SMALL DOGS Three year old LOU arrived with us on the 5th July 2026. Described by Siobhan as 'really sweet', LOU is a lovely friendly girl who is ready to find her forever home. She has been enjoying her daily walks with our volunteers and we’re told she walks well on the lead. LOU is a quiet girl and can appear timid but her confidence has increased already since she arrived with us. LOU loves spending time with our volunteers, loves to play with toys and has enjoyed spending time in our home from home room. We believe LOU would benefit from a home with adopters who have experience of large dogs and we are sure she would love to live with another sighthound. LOU cannot live with small dogs.

About LOU (female)

What life with LOU (female) looks like

LOU (female) is a large puppy greyhound dog waiting at Makants Greyhound Rescue NW in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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 LOU (female), answered.

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