Try asking on the riders of the north east face book page? I'm local but never used them (ended up buying mine from a dealer in Cumbria)

Valerian - its banned from comp for a reason cos it works, an alternative is Zylkene or if you want something else the equine products one is fairly good for travelling etc

Agree! As someone that volunteers for a freyhound rehoming charity it is doable with cats if you have the right greyhound - a lot of the small no trust rescues will also cat test (we can't as we don't have any cats....). Durham, Norfolk and Kent cat test greyhounds also. Also the breed...

Try Valerian or Zylkene, have used both with some effect on a post box rest TB. I say some effect as I too gave up hand walking (in a bridle/Chifney/2 people/2 lunge lines) and turned him out for which he was heavily sedated by the vet but fought it and was an absolute *insert word of choice*...

I leave mine on my horse overnight

Out of area but friend has used them for and recommends

We are based in Northumberland

Younger retired greyhound - once that didn't make it to the track as it didnt want to chase would be my suggestion, we have some waiting to come in for rehoming (I volunteer for a greyhound rehoming/rescue charity) The other end of the scale is an older 6-8 yr old that just isn't bothered about...

Have you tried speaking to Sara Burdess? If she hasn't got any spare her kids have grown out of she usually knows of some

I moved my greyhound from a large corp run group to a local independant practice and they are brilliant, quotes itemised, never feel pushed, answer all qustions and have the dogs best interest at heart and are caring and compasionate especially when I lost my last grey a few months ago, I had to...
