Luath (pronounced Loo-a and means fast in Scottish Gaelic) first came into SGS care in 2017 at the age of 16 months. Sadly, he has moved around a fair bit having been rehomed and returned several times. He is not an easy dog and will require a very experienced home to deal with his issues:
• Severe resource guarding which leads to biting.
• Reactivity to other dogs in the home, so he would need to be an only dog. (He can have canine friends outside for walks and playdates).
• Pulling on the lead.
• Getting excited and ragging the lead and jumping up at people.
• Separation anxiety.
The good news is that these issues have settled down after several months in his current foster home. However, he has displayed them each time he’s gone to a new home and they are very likely to show again when he moves.
Luath’s full history can be provided if you think you may be able to offer him a forever home. However, we will only accept applications from people who can demonstrate they have significant lurcher experience and are willing to work with Luath.

We are looking for an adult only home (18 years plus) with plenty of time to dedicate to turning this boys life around. Originally found as a stray at a young age he deserves his happy ever after. He would suit a training minded owner happy to work with our training and behaviour team.
Type of home needed
Edward would love to be the centre of attention in his home as the only pet.

Trix is looking for love!
This gorgeous boy is called Trix. He is very affectionate, will do anything for a biscuit and he loves a bit of a fuss made.
Trix came to us after an injury in his previous home which left damage to his back. He has been treated by our vets and although he does seem to be improving, on our vets advice he will need a home where he can get the down time he needs to fully recover. He is restricted to short lead walks and strictly no off lead at this time.
History
His previous owner felt they couldn’t give him the support and time he needs to make a full recovery.
Re-homing Criteria
We are looking for a home without cats and young children but older children would be fine. He needs a calm home with a family who can help him complete his recovery time and get him back to 100%. Trix may be able to live with another dog, a dog to dog introduction can be carried out here at the kennels.
If you think you may be the one for him please get in touch for more information.
