We are in desperate need of foster homes in Lincoln & surrounding counties. The more foster homes we have the more dogs we can save, it really is that simple. Apply to foster HERE-

Lincoln Greyhounds is the greyhound side of Doris Banham Dog Rescue (www.dogsos.co.uk), we are based in lincoln and help unwanted Grey-hounds from the Racing circuits & dog pounds. Every year at least 10,000 greyhounds are retired from racing. The fate of many of these greyhounds is unknown and huge numbers simply 'disappear'.

Due to the sheer amount of dogs bred to find that premier racing dog- lots end up being not suitable for racing and unless we find them homes they are at risk of being put to sleep.

There is nothing wrong with the health of dog, they are just not good enough to make the elite few for racing.

We always have greyhounds looking for homes sometimes even young puppies.

Please Call Wendy for further details 07766124364 after 6pm. Due to a number of weird phone calls we will nolonger answer withheld numbers.

We get given a list of dogs that may be put to sleep unless we find a new home, a temporary foster home or a rescue centre anywhere in the UK willing to take them. We are often forced to put these dogs into boarding kennels just to save their lives. Which at discounted cost of £5 a night our bills soon mount up. If you are a greyhound lover and can help with a donation to help with our vital work please click on the donate button on the left, no matter how small, every penny goes towards saving their lives.

All the dogs are speyed, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

To continue with our vital work we ask for an adoption fee of £120 for the dog, so we can rescue others waiting to come in. This pays for transportation through-out the UK, neutering and medical bills for that or other dogs needing attention and emergency boarding when needed. This is still much less than the price of a pedigree puppy and a bitch spey will cost around this price anyway.
