Welcome to Crossing Cottage Greyhound Sanctuary

We are the East Midlands and Nottinghamshire branch of the Retired Greyhound Trust (RGT), a national charity that was established to ensure the long-term welfare of greyhounds after retirement from racing.

Every year between eight and nine thousand greyhounds, aged from 2 to 6 years, retire from racing and, thanks to the efforts of the RGT, many of them are found new homes with families.

Greyhounds make wonderful family pets. They are intelligent, lovable, fun-loving, gentle creatures and make loyal companions for people of all ages.

Many people think that greyhounds need lots of exercise. But the truth is they are sprinters rather than long distance runners. Two 20-minute walks every day is enough to satisfy them, although they are also happy to go on longer walks. 

Our job is to find the right homes for our charges. The dogs we have available can be seen on this site and there is also lots of information about greyhounds and how to look after them. Have a look and then give us a call - or better still come to the kennels and meet the dogs at first hand. You’ll be very welcome
