Hi, I'm new to this forum. I came across Southern Lurcher Rescue via a link from Mutts in Distress (at least I think that is where I found you!!) We have a lovely 6 yr old female greyhound, Roxi and are looking for a young male partner in life for her. Sadly our other dog, Zak passed away recently. We are experienced dog owners and have owned sight hounds for over 9 years. Please can you tell me if Oscar is still available for adoption? Many thanks, Tracie

Sorry, forgot to mention that we have secure garden fencing on all sides; I am at home most of the day, and husband is a shift worker with lots of time on his hands, when he's off duty!

Hi Tracie Welcome to the forum. Sorry to her about Zak. I'm Oscar's foster mum, and yes he is still available for adoption. Click on the link at the top of the page to visit the SLR website and complete an application form. And if you have any questions about Oscar in the meantime just send me a message. Sara

Oscar had a lovely day at the Greyhound Walks Show yesterday which resulted in two very interested families, and one serious offer. Unfortunately the family are going on holiday today and so we won't be able to homecheck them until after their holidays. But Oscar did meet the family dog and was very comfortable with the family. We will keep his applications open and make a decision on the best homes available after they are also homechecked.

Hi Sara, Thanks for your reply! I spoke with Jenny on Saturday & sent an email same day, outlining some more finer details re: our situation (sent an email because I had problems with completing the adoption form & laptop issues!!) We are going to Norfolk this w/end & taking Roxi (greyhound) with us, as she's been very low since Zak passed away,and we're hoping that some lovely walks and lots of runs on the beautiful beaches on the North Norfolk coast will give her the boost she needs. Thanks again, Tracie :-)

Just seen the posts re: Oscar & the positive news surrounding him! His forever home looks ever closer for yet another dog well-deserved of the dedication, love & companionship he (as all doggies) deserves! :-)

Have a wonderful weekend away Tracie - I do hope Roxi perks up with those lovely beaches to run on.
Nothing is set in stone re Oscar's future - I'm a firm believer in fate and that the right home will find him. xx
