🚨 URGENT – UK Foster Homes Needed.
Every day we have to turn away dogs who are out of time — not because we don’t want them, but because we don’t have anywhere safe for them to go. Without new foster carers, countless hounds may not get their second chance.
Fostering saves lives. 🩵 🐾 #adoptdontshop

Delightful little Pickle found his forever home via the Lurcher SOS family a while ago, but due to a change in family circumstances he needs a new 🏡 . He is a wonderful, affectionate dog who would thrive with another friendly dog to play with. Could you be his family? ❤️ 🐾

Feeling a little stressed?
My advice would be to rub a houndie’s ears.

Handsome Finn has stolen our hearts. 💕
Finn’s start in life was incredibly cruel – he was abandoned, tied up with a choke chain, and he had some terrible injuries. He has recovered brilliantly and he is a very gentle, affectionate boy. ❤️ lurchersos.org.uk/dogs-for-adopt…

This gentle boy is Duke, who was found in a flat after his owner had sadly passed away.
👉 read about Duke here: lurchersos.org.uk/dogs-for-adopt… and register your interest in adopting him. He’ll be ready for his forever 🏡 once vaccinations & neutering are complete. 🐾 ❤️

Someone just said to me “We would get a rescue but they are often unhappy around children and we have a young family.”
Please be assured, our valued foster carers assess rescues carefully so we can place the right dog with the right🏡. Many rescue hounds ❤️ children. 🐾 #rescue #rescuedog #hounds #dogs

Delightful Mila is full of puppyish charm and her foster mum sings her praises. Could you be this petite hound’s forever family?
She is friendly, sociable, eager to learn, house-trained, and joyful. 🐾 💗

Have we mentioned that Ted is an excellent car-traveller?
He also sleeps soundly through the night and he is clever and joyful.
Like most rescues he has some anxieties but he and his foster family are working through them very well. Could you be Ted’s forever family? 🐾 🧡 #lurcher #hound #rescuedog

Oh dear. Seb has had a bit of a mishap! He was chasing a bird in the garden & broke a toe, so he’s in a splint & cast for a little while. However, he seems to enjoy being pulled around! Seb is still looking for his forever home.🐾 💓 www.lurchersos.org.uk/dogs-for-ado...

Well, sweet Rosie has found her forever home with her foster family! They just couldn’t let her go. We can’t blame them - she is a delight. Nothing but sweet times ahead, dear lady. ❤️ 🐾 💪

Want to know why people opt to foster a rescue hound?
“Not every dog is easy to foster. Some come with challenges. But it is all worth it when you see them thrive and go off to their perfect forever home. Knowing I played a part in their journey is an amazing feeling.” ~ Chris.

Could you help a rescue dog find its feet by being a foster carer?
🐾 A foster home gives a dog time to learn to enjoy family life.
🐾 A fosterer will also help asses a dog’s needs & personality so their adoption goes smoothly.
🐾 Please visit our website for details.

Sweet Sophie is an 8-year-old ex-racer who has come back to us due to a change in her family’s circumstances. She is a dream of a dog - happy and affectionate, independent, and she loves children. Sophie would be an ideal companion for someone who works from home.

Charming Mila has settled in wonderfully with her foster family, and she is making friends with the resident hounds. Now, she’s ready to find her forever sofa. At around a year old she has plenty of puppyish fun about her. Could you believe the right match? #hound #rescuedog #whippet #sighthound 🐾

Last weekend we brought together our wonderful fosterers, adopters, and extended Lurcher SOS family, to celebrate 15 years of rescuing and rehoming sighthounds. That’s 991 dogs who have been placed in loving homes! 🐾 ❤️

🐾 Are they house-trained?
🐾 Do they like children?
🐾 How are they with 🐈‍⬛?
🐾 Can they walk on a lead?
🐾 What are their favourite activities?

🐾 a chew on his favourite antler horn
🐾 short bursts of tug or toy play
🐾 hopping in the car for low-key adventures
