Please note: if you choose to proceed with a therapy hounds assessment for your dog, the cost of the assessment will be met by Greyhound Rescue Wales. We ask that volunteers commit to at least 3 visits within 12 months of their assessment in order to make the assessment worthwhile.
If you are not able to complete 3 visits within the first 12 months, you may be asked to make a partial or full reimbursement of the cost of assessing your dog.
