We hope to see you all there!

Rehoming

Dogs looking for a home…

Rodney

Rodney turned 4 in January and has spent the last 5 months in foster. He is a real character and a very friendly lad who enjoys the company of people and prefers not to be left for long periods. Rodney is an inquisitive boy who enjoys sniffing on his walks, snoozing on his bed and is very food orientated. He travels well in the car – jumps in on his own and lays down for the journey. Rodney has also enjoyed trips away in his foster family’s motor home and has even been on a tram in Blackpool where he was very well behaved.

Rodney will respond to his name and will let you know when he wants to go out. He likes to be involved in everything and if he’s in the garden or another room and thinks he’s missing out, he’ll come and find you at lightening quick speed!

Rodney is probably best described as a typical teenage lad. His heart is in the right place but he benefits from firm boundaries so his enthusiasm doesn’t get too boisterous. Rodney would be happiest with fosterers/adopters who have experience of the breed and are around most of the time. He would prefer to be the only pet and a secure garden is a must, as our Rodders can clear a 3ft high gate/fence from a standing start!

Teff

Patience of a saint? Yes, that’s Teff. This gorgeous boy has been waiting nearly FOUR years for a home. That’s nearly 1460 days spent… well… just waiting.

Teff is a lovely, calm boy who walks close by your side and has perfected the art of the greyhound lean. He’s a very friendly boy who loves a cuddle and has a lovely kind face. Teff will be 7 in August so has already spent half his life in kennels and he desperately needs as family to call his own.

Teff is a straightforward boy who would fit in to most homes and would be a great choice for first time adopters. Maybe you have space in your life for Saint Teff?

Orphan Annie

Orphan Annie (aka Blue Bailey) has had a few hard knocks in her short life and is in urgent need of a home after her owner passed away.

Still kennelled with her trainer, she is an absolute dream. The most affectionate girl who loves giving kisses & cuddles and would lick you to death if she could.

She walks beautifully on her lead and often checks in with you. Not because she is anxious but simply because she loves people. And with that gorgeous face who could not love her back!?!

Romeo

Romeo is surely every girl’s dream… Not only is he tall, dark & handsome but he’s kind, calm & well mannered. A complete gentleman who would hold doors open for you if he could. So it’s beyond belief that our Romeo is still looking for love.

Romeo has been in foster for the past couple of months so all the work getting him used to a home, house training etc has been done. He’s an affectionate boy who loves a fuss and really deserves to find his special someone.

Please have a read of Romeo’s profile for more info on how fabulous this boy is.

Blackout and Dreamer – the new boys

Let’s all say “hi” to new boys, Blackout & Dreamer. Sadly for these two, the odds of being rehomed quickly were stacked against them before they even stepped off the track, because they’re black. So let’s give them the best possible start to their adoption campaign by giving them lots of love, likes & shares.

Blackout (above) is a very friendly, affectionate boy whose tail doesn’t stop wagging.

Dreamer is a bit more thoughtful… quiet and gentle. Both love leaning against you and walk well on their leads. You can read their full profiles below

Blackout

Dreamer

If you can offer any of these dogs a home – foster or permanent – please get in touch at rehoming@tia-rescue.org. Please remember to leave your phone number in the email! We request a minimum donation of £350 to adopt a Tia hound.

Thank you.

Fundraising

Will’s London Marathon fundraiser is now up to an amazing £1260 – the race is one month away, so there’s still plenty of time to reach his target of £2000! Support him here.

Cecilia is doing the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge for Tia… again! Her total currently sits at £293.

And with over 3 months to go until her walk, there is still plenty of time for that figure to climb even higher! Support her here.

Auction

A massive thank you to everybody who took part in the Tia Auction. The total stands at an amazing £2991 (including P&P costs), and will likely break £3k once the last few items are paid for and sent out.

If you have either not received your items or are struggling to pay, please get in touch at info@tia-rescue.org and we can help you out!

Also keep your eyes peeled on the Tia Facebook page for future “flash” auctions…

Stamps

From April 7th so many price increases are going to affect us in a big way. One way you can help with now is stamps. We would be very grateful if you could buy some stamps before the price increases & send them to the farm.

The best place to buy them is from the post office or shops. Amazon ones are more expensive. The 1st & 2nd standard are the ones we use the most.

Thank you 😊

Please ring Deb on 07974960684 if you are interested.

Rehoming

Arthur

A super straightforward boy, Arthur is absolutely no bother and walks calmly and quietly on his lead. He doesn’t even bat an eye-lid when his sister, Kelsey, is being a giddy kipper! He’s used to turning a blind eye where that one’s concerned!

Whilst waiting for his turn to walk with our volunteers, Arthur fell asleep in the sun and would happily have snoozed the day away. He’s just that sort of boy! Currently sharing with Kelsey, Arthur longs for a bed all of his own and a bit of peace and quiet. After 18 months of waiting, surely that’s not too much to ask?

If you can offer Arthur a couple of daily walks, a comfy bed and a patch of sunlight to snooze, please get in touch.

Snooty Sisters (Kathleen & Kelsey)

Well, who’d have thought it! Whilst Snooty sisters, Kathleen & Kelsey, were busy squabbling about who was the hot favourite to be homed first, guess who snuck up on the inside rail and pipped them both to the post? That’s right… brother George or “George-ous” as he is known to our volunteers!

The girls hadn’t seen this one coming and are well & truly miffed!

If you can cheer up either Kelsey or Kathleen by offering them a home, please get in touch.

Anton

Well… this boy’s no “SEVEN”… he’s a most definite “TEN”! And a few years back adopters would have been clamouring over Anton like contestants over the Strictly Glitterball! Sadly though times have changed and Anton has received no interest to date.

A small boy at 30kg, Anton is quite timid and shy until he gets to know you. We don’t think racing holds fond memories for him as he was a bit reluctant to walk with our volunteers around the track. Away from the track however, Anton really came out of his shell – wagging his tail and increasing in confidence.

A beautiful, gentle young boy who may be happiest being rehomed with another dog.

If you can offer a Tia hound a home – temporary or permanent – please get in touch at rehoming@tia-rescue.org, and please leave your phone number in the email!. We request a minimum donation of £350 to adopt a Tia hound.

Mason

When Mason came to us in January this year he was in a bad way physically and mentally. We have no idea where he had been after being dumped/rehomed by his trainer. He last raced at Sheffield 23rd August 2024.

Tuesday this week he eventually bagged himself a foster home. It always takes time with big black boys….pretty girls are snapped up within days at other rescues.

We have always taken the dogs no one else wants… it’s just what we do. Good luck big fella.

Mulder

Mulder was another of the McManus dogs, rescued from his trainer’s neglect in late 2024. A nervous wreck when he arrived, we thought he was unlikely to ever be a candidate for rehoming and the sponsor dogs were all ready to shuffle up and make room.

But… as you know… we are never ones to shy away from a challenge! And whilst it might have taken 18 months… just look at what time, dedication and lots of Tia TLC can achieve. Mulder is finally where he should be…home.

Thank you to his sponsors who helped to support his care whilst he was here!

Cedric

Great news for gorgeous Lurcher Cedric who went off to his new home last weekend.

He’s been exploring his new surroundings and is settling in well with his new Greyhound brother, Ken.

Found as a stray in Autumn 2025, Cedric now has a fabulous life ahead of him thanks to both his foster Mum and his new family.

Looking for a home

Kathleen, Lilly, and Kelsey

Towards the back end of last year, the girls were getting snapped up before they even made it to the website. So when we were asked to help home Kathleen, Lilly & Kelsey we didn’t expect any of these beautiful girls to be around for long.

Sadly we were mistaken. Unbelievable as it is, all 3 are still waiting, and people are seriously missing out on these gorgeous girls!

Read more about them below…

Kathleen

Lilly

Mason

Many of you will remember the videos of Mason circling in his kennel after being picked up as a skinny stray in January.

After 6 or so weeks at Tia, this boy is very much on the mend and has really started to blossom. He’s such a lovely boy who is going to make a fabulous companion.

Mason is currently in Scotland but can also be rehomed elsewhere.

If you can offer a Tia dog a home, please get in touch at rehoming@tia-rescue.org, and remember to leave your number in the email! We request a minimum donation of £350 to adopt a Tia hound.

Fundraising Events

Thank you for everyone who came to our J32 event last weekend. Here’s a few photos from the day…

Our next fundraising stall will be at Lakeside Shopping Village, Doncaster, on Sunday 29th March. See you there!

Rodney

Rodney (Foxrock Rodney)

born Jan 22

Rodney turned four in January and has spent the last 5 months in foster. He is a very friendly lad who doesn’t like to be left for long periods, so would like to find a home with someone who is around most of the time.

Rodney is an inquisitive boy who enjoys sniffing on his walks, snoozing on his bed and is very food orientated. He travels well in the car, jumps in on his own and lays down for the journey. He has also enjoyed trips away in his foster family’s motor home and has even been on a tram in Blackpool!

Rodney will respond to his name and will let you know when he wants to go out. He likes to be involved in everything and if he’s in the garden or another room and thinks he’s missing out, he’ll come and find you at lightening quick speed! Rodney has the energy you would expect of a young dog and can pull on his lead to begin with, but this is improving all the time. Rodney would be happiest as an only dog with experienced adopters who have a secure garden as he can clear a 3ft high gate/fence.

 

Dreamer

Dreamer

Dreamer (Maybe Dreaming)

born June 22

Cooler than a Vegan Snow Lizard, for those of us who know where their towel is. Dreamer has been lightly raced and his heart was never in it anyway.

A straightforward boy.  Walked quietly & nicely on his lead but kept himself to himself more than some.  Blackout was very keen to be friends with him and Dreamer was laid back when Blackout was coming up to him for a sniff but wasn’t really interested in sniffing him back.  Came across as a quiet boy and maybe a bit aloof but might come out of his shell when settled in a home.   Totally unfazed by a forklift which was operating in the car park.  He was a leaner so he obviously does enjoy being around people.  Laid down in the van whilst waiting for his turn.

Patiently awaiting his place in the world.

Blackout

Blackout

Blackout (No Blackout)

Born Sept 23

It was all going so well too. Nine races, four wins, four seconds and a 4th (bit of a sniffle).

Blew it a fortnight ago. Blackout took umbrage at being bested at the line by a slip of a girl. The judge took a poor view of his chat up technique and red-carded him for life. We met him at the weekend and think he should appeal. This dog is gorgeous.

Blackout is very friendly boy with people and other dogs and loves attention. This paragon of virtue was very interested in being friends with Dreamer. Walked nicely & calmly on his lead. Also he was completely unfazed by the forklift in the car park. Blackout thoroughly enjoyed his walk and was wagging his tail constantly . Just laid down in the van quietly whilst waiting for his turn. A happy sunny straightforward boy who needs a chance.

Mason (on foster)

Mason (Mucho Macho Enda)

born 3/12/20

Fellow traveller of Miller and just as handsome. Lucky not to have come to any harm and many thanks to the handful of folk who didn’t turn their backs.

Right. Onwards. Like his pal, Mason is a bit thin and will need a bit more time to recover. A foster home would be ideal for now as his head is all over the place. Beautiful dog you have to admit.

Welcome Mason.

Jim (Emers Jim)

born July 22

Tuxedo greyhound. Stunning. Born in Ireland. Failed to impress in his first run and red carded for life in his second. Bravo Jim.

A daft puppy who’s tail never stopped wagging on our walk.  Very friendly and playful and good with kids – would suit a family.  He likes to be involved and with you as much as possible.

We love this sort.

“Jim has been in foster since just before Christmas and, after being understandably overwhelmed to begin with, he is now starting to find his feet.  Jim is a very sweet natured boy who loves people.  He has settled quickly into his foster family’s routine and is clean in the house.  Jim loves to play with his toys but doesn’t destroy them and, providing he has his toys to play with, will settle when left for a couple of hours but is always delighted to see you when you return!

Jim has met and made friends with children and has been happy meeting dogs of all sizes.  He is currently living with another male Greyhound and we do think he would benefit from the company of another dog.  Jim can become worried if his environment gets too noisy.  He is easily reassured but does need a quiet, safe space to retreat to.

Jim likes his food but has an interesting way of eating it!  He takes a little bit of kibble out of his dish, takes it to the hallway, eats it and then goes back to get some more, sprinkling it all on route!

Jim has proven himself to be an adaptable boy who has settled well into home life and is now ready to start looking for his forever family.  We think Jim would make a great family pet and would enjoy living with sensible, older children.  Jim responds best to gentle learning and needs patient adopters who will give him time to settle into his new home”.

Rehoming

Recently Rehomed

February might only be a short month but there were still plenty of gorgeous hounds helped and homed!

Baby Hilda, little Arthur, and Mulder have all joined their new families and, after waiting an age for his chance, Romeo bagged himself a place in one of our fabulous foster homes.

The two lovely Lurchers found straying in Leeds are both now safe and looking forward to brighter futures. Lucky Lady, is currently in foster with long-time Tia supporters and the worried boy found a place with Cheshire Sighthound Rescue. Thank you to everyone involved in making these happy endings happen

Miller

Yesterday was Miller’s 6th birthday. And where this beautiful boy has been for the last 6 years, we have no idea. But needless to say, we don’t think he’s spent it as a much loved pet, with full belly and soft bed.

After being picked up as a stray in January, Miller has spent the last 6 weeks at Tia and he is now more than ready to move on. After spending his life so far goodness knows where, this boy needs to make up for lost time and find a family who will shower him with love.

Jim

Stunning tuxedo boy Jim has been in foster since mid December and so we know plenty about him. Here is a quick update from his foster family…

This lovely lad’s character is coming out wonderfully since being with us. He is a very loving boy and enjoys going out in the car. He has settled down very well into a normal family life and always asks to go out if he needs to. No messes in the house and is left daily when we go to work. He doesn’t chew but does collect slippers. He understands basic commands such as wait, steady and lie down, whether he does them or not is a work in progress! He gives hugs and kisses and loves a zoomie. Whoever does decide to adopt him will get a smashing new member of the family. This wee lad deserves the best

Jim is more than ready to find his forever family!

If you would like to rehome a Tia hound, please email rehoming@tia-rescue.org and PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR PHONE NUMBER.

We request a minimum donation of £350 to adopt.

Online Auction

Our Online Auction starts this Saturday!

There will be over 150 items up for grabs; books, records, ornaments, art, fashion, jewellery… and lots more. And of course plenty of items for our furry friends – leads, toys, beds, and even a few games! Something for everyone.

Kathleen & George, Lilly & Teff, Kelsey & Arthur

Two’s company!

If anyone out there is looking for a pair, you couldn’t go wrong with Kathleen & George, Lilly & Teff or Kelsey & Arthur. These pairs are currently kennelled together and, whilst all six are confident enough to potentially live as only dogs, it would be extra lovely for them to find homes together. Let us know if you have room for two!

Jim

Jim (or Jimmy as he prefers to be known) has been in foster since mid December and it’s a mystery why this young, good looking boy is not yet in his forever home.

  • Jim a sweet natured boy who loves people & is always delighted to see you.
  • He gives the best hugs & kisses.
  • He is clean in the house & has settled well in to his foster family’s routine.
  • Jim loves to play with his toys & collect slippers!
  • He loves travelling in the car & doing zoomies!
  • Jim will settle when left for a few hours.
  • He lives happily with another male hound and has been friendly with other breeds.
  • Jim will make a great family pet and could live with sensible, older children.
  • Jim can get worried by loud noises & will need his own safe & quiet space.

In the words of his foster Mum “whoever adopts Jimmy will get a smashing new member of the family. This wee boy deserves the best”. Jim is in Scotland.

Brew

We’ve got a big following in Yorkshire, right?! And Yorkshire folk love a good brew?! So how come our beautiful boy Brew is still waiting for his home?

Brew has just turned 4 and is your typical Greyhound – a chilled out & low maintenance boy.

So if you like putting your feet up whilst having a cuppa and sharing the odd Digestive, Brew could be the boy for you!

Anton & Aaron

Anton (fawn) & Aaron (blue) – two stunning new boys looking for their forever homes. Have read about them below…

Romeo

Will you join us in sending lots of love & virtual hugs Romeo’s way?!

This gorgeous boy was in for his neutering & dental this week. Whilst we know he’s in safe hands with Donaldsons and his foster family, what would really cheer Romeo up is the news he has a home! Anyone?!

Romeo has been in foster since early February and has settled in like a dream! His foster family describe him as “a lovely lad” who is confident, happy and walks to heel on his lead.

Read more about him here.

If you think you could rehome a Tia hound, please get in touch at rehoming@tia-rescue.org. PLEASE LEAVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER IN THE EMAIL. Thank you!

We request a minimum donation of £350 to adopt.

Lady

This time last week Lady the little black girl was picked up from the stray kennel in Leeds. Who knew that Will was going to fall so deeply in love. He is absolutely head over heels with his new foster girl… What a beautiful picture.

Thanks to Leeds Dog Wardens and obviously her foster parents for stepping up and helping.
