Monthly Walk
This Month’s Walk Is In Allonby!
Our group walk and get together for May will be along Allonby Beach in Cumbria, CA15 6QF, taking a circular route down the beach along the Solway Firth and back along the coastal path.
There is some spectacular ice cream available along the route… oh, and some lovely scenery of course. Let’s hope for good weather to enjoy both.
The walk starts at 10.30am on Sunday, 31st May, 2026. Hope to see you all there!

Amazing Fundraising Achievement!
Our wonderful supporter, adopter, organiser and volunteer Helen, set herself a huge target this year: to raise money for the homeless hounds by completing a 3 part, physically gruelling, momentous Spring Challenge.
Helen planned to run the Cross Border 10k race from Carlisle to Gretna in February, the Carlisle half marathon in March and walk the mighty 96mile West Highland Way in April.
We were speechless at the thought, in awe of her efforts and overwhelmed with gratitude by her results…

What We Do
We look for forever homes or foster places for retired or injured, ex-racing greyhounds. We never put a healthy dog to sleep and will look for a home for as long as it takes.
We raise all our own funds through events, donations and sales in our charity shop. All our staff are volunteers and all our income is used for the welfare of the dogs in our care.
If you see a greyhound you might like to join your family, or would like to get involved, please call us on 07873 381470 for a brief, no-obligation chat to find out more.
Adopt
Have a look at the greyhounds we have currently waiting to be adopted. Could this be your new best friend?
Foster
Could you help prepare a greyhound for its new life by sharing your home with a dog as a foster carer?
Volunteer
Our Charity is run entirely by volunteers. Could you spare a few hours to help us and the dogs in our care?
Donate
Could you help us with a donation? Everything we raise goes to help the greyhounds. DCGR have no paid staff.
