Luther

Greyhound · Male

Stunning Luther is looking for his forever home. Sadly Luther came to us in appalling condition; he is an ex racing Greyhound from Ireland who apparently ended up on the straight tracks and flapping tracks in England. He was living in a garden when he came to us and was very underweight and covered in scars. We don’t know what the scars are from but thankfully he doesn’t have many mental scars. He is a really sweet, gentle, kind boy. He loves his walks, food and sleeping.Luther likes to be groomed and likes playing with toys in the garden. He is a really sweet boy who will make a great family pet ❤️❤️ For more information please WhatsApp Kerry Opening 10-6pm

About Luther

What life with Luther looks like

Luther is a adult greyhound dog waiting at Greyhound Protection UK in England (nationwide).

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 Luther, answered.

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