Saint

Greyhound · Male · Adult · 4 years

Saint is super happy and friendly and he loves to play chase, but he's still working on making fetch happen! This handsome chap enjoys walking with other dogs, and would be able to live with other dogs, as well as children of secondary school age. He has had some medical needs whilst in our care, which may be ongoing, but our veterinary team can discuss this in more detail. Our Animal Welfare licence number is AWE02, as licenced by Glasgow City Council. Saint is a 5 year old Greyhound who has found himself with us after retiring from a racing career. He is as his name suggests, a total angel and he adores being made a fuss of! Saint is looking to have someone who can help him settle in to a home and spoil him rotten, as he deserves. As he has a high prey drive, we'd recommend keeping him on lead and muzzled in public spaces.

About Saint

What life with Saint looks like

Saint is a adult greyhound dog waiting at Dogs Trust Glasgow in Glasgow.

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 Saint, answered.

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