The
Oldies
Club
(http://www.oldies.org.uk/)
The Oldies Club was set up to help older dogs into new homes.
Older dogs are often overlooked due to their age but they
are the ones that most need their home comforts and suffer
most in kennels. The Oldies Club often have Sighthounds in, so
please if you are thinking of offering a dog a home have a look
at these special dogs.

Tailends
http://www.tailends.co.uk/indexw.htm
Tailends exists to take in elderly or terminally ill dogs (often - but not exclusively - greyhounds). Our dogs
come from situations of abuse or neglect and are unlikely to be re-homed in the normal way.
The greyhounds have normally lived their entire lives in kennels – initially as racing dogs and then kept
in bleak conditions out of sight of the general public and with no chance of a home. They have rarely received
any veterinary care or pain relief. Some have been fed poor quality food and had infrequent access to clean
fresh water. They have sometimes been housed, without coats or proper bedding, in kennels that provide
limited protection from the weather. They commonly suffer from crippling diseases, untreated infections
or old injuries.
Tailends provide immediate veterinary treatment, warmth, comfort, loving care, appropriate walks and good
quality food. Sometimes we can successfully treat and considerably extend the life of the dog. Sometimes
we can only ensure that they receive the best veterinary attention in their final days and are comfortable
and loved for the first and only time in their miserable lives.
