KOOKIE
**UPDATED: JUNE 2012**
Meet the stunning Kookie and form an orderly queue! Kookie is a 2 year old greyhound girl who has never raced and is looking to find a forever family to call her own. Kookie is a real stunner – she has a light fawn coat and bright, intelligent eyes that show a lovely character waiting within her. This little lady is going to be a truly fantastic family member for a lucky someone.
~ Personality ~
Kookie has only just come to us, so we are still getting to know each other. So far though, this girl is a pure delight to be around. She is very friendly, adores her walks, and soaks up any hugs and kisses that come her way. We hope she won’t have to wait very long to find her lifelong home, but we can update with more info on her in a few weeks if she is still available.
~ In the Home ~
Kookie has not been in a home environment before, so new owners will need to be a bit patient during the first couple of weeks and allow her time to settle in and learn the home rules. It generally takes 10-14 days for new greyhounds to start to settle down in a home, and really all they need is a bit of time and patience. This girl has spent all her life so far in kennels, and we can't wait for her to discover the luxury of a duvet and the joy of a toy to call her own. She’s going to be in 7th heaven!
~ Other Animals ~
Kookie is well behaved with the other greyhounds in our kennels, and doesn’t cause any hassle. She has spent some time around a small terrier and was her usual friendly, happy-go-lucky self, so she could go to a home with another smaller dog already present. Kookie has not yet been tested with cats, but this can be carried out if needed. Because she has never raced, there is a chance she may be cat friendly.
~ Out and About ~
Kookie loves her walks very much, and she’s a joy to take out. She walks well on the lead and is very curious about all going on around her. She loves travelling in the car and is very quick to settle for the journey. This lady is going to be a fantastic family member and showing her the big wide world is going to be such a rewarding experience.
~ Greyhounds as Pets ~
In general greyhounds are calm, mannerly dogs that are well used to being handled. They can fit very well in to a wide range of different lifestyles and usually adjust to the home life very quickly. Their soft, easy going nature often makes them ideal to live in a family with children, while their love of lazing around and low exercise requirements can make them perfect for the elderly. Greyhounds also don’t shed as much as other more popular dog breeds and this can make them suitable to live with allergy sufferers.
~ Where Am I? ~
Kookie is currently being kennelled in Norfolk, UK. She can be homed anywhere in the UK, but please note that you will be required to travel to us in Norfolk to meet her.
~ Want To Adopt Me? ~
Kookie is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, de-flea'd and wormed and a homecheck will be required as part of the adoption procedure. This girl would greatly benefit from being in a foster home, and Kerry Greyhounds UK is always in desperate need of new fosterers. It is such a rewarding experience, and costs are covered by the rescue.
If you are interested in adopting or fostering Kookie, please visit either our website’s Adoption Page or Fostering Page for information and instructions on our homing & fostering procedures. If you have any further questions or problems, please feel free to email me (Tam) on tamakin_84@yahoo.co.uk. Emails are usually replied to within 24 hrs. Thanks!
~~ KERRY GREYHOUNDS UK ~~
Kerry Greyhounds UK is a small voluntary organisation that is based in Norfolk, England. It focuses on rehoming unwanted Irish greyhounds and lurchers, as huge numbers are bred in Ireland each year and homes are few and far between. KGUK operates through a network of volunteers spaced over Ireland and the UK. We can look after approximately 30 dogs at any one time in both kennels and foster homes.
Each dog is neutered, vaccinated, & microchipped before being adopted (unless stated otherwise).
We assess the suitability of all home offers, and we have homed greyhounds in all corners of the UK.

If interested in one of our hounds, please visit our website’s Adoption Page for information and instructions on our homing procedures. Once you have filled in and returned the application form, we will then contact you via phone or email to discuss adopting one of our hounds in more detail.
