GREYHOUNDS were found loving new homes thanks to a charity which looks after ex-racing dogs.

Hall Green Retired Greyhound Trust held an awareness day to promote ex-racing greyhounds as family pets in Worcester market place.

Christina Fowler, a spokesman for the charity, said: "It was a very successful day. To date we have re-homed three lucky greyhounds and have two more potential new owners coming to our kennels."

The kennels are based in Belbroughton, near Bromsgrove.

The organisation also collected £154.60 in Worcester and the charity is grateful for all donations.
