Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?
In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.
Is my listing already here?
We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.
Buying a Greyhound puppy
Looking for Greyhound puppies for sale? Litters of pedigree, RKC-registered Greyhounds are few and far between, so start early and expect to wait. Breeders listed here show their location, website, social links and categories, so you can shortlist and contact them directly. Ask each breeder for the parents' Greyhound neuropathy results, check them on the RKC Health Test Results Finder, and ask about heart testing. See the puppies with their mother, collect your puppy in person, and do not take one home before eight weeks. If an adult dog would suit you better, charities such as the Greyhound Trust rehome retired racing greyhounds. Read our buyer safety guide before paying any money. We are an independent directory and do not inspect or endorse breeders, so please carry out your own checks.
Health tests to ask about
The Greyhound is in Breed Watch Category 1, so the RKC has not flagged any breed-specific points of concern for show judges. At Good Practice level, the minimum the RKC strongly recommends, breeders should prioritise genetic diversity, which matters in a breed with so few registered litters. At Best Practice level the RKC adds the DNA test for Greyhound neuropathy (GN). GN is a nerve disease with autosomal recessive inheritance: a puppy is affected only if it inherits the faulty gene from both parents. Signs such as muscle weakness, poor stamina and a bunny-hopping gait usually appear at around three to nine months. The RKC's genetic diversity guidance says carriers can still be bred from if they are mated only to clear dogs. The breed club notes that since January 2023, hereditary clear status no longer applies after two generations and dogs must then be tested.
The Greyhound Club UK's code of ethics also recommends a heart examination and ECG by a cardiac specialist within twelve months before mating, and the club has identified bloat, bone cancer (osteosarcoma) and heart disease as the most important conditions to tackle in the breed. Health testing lowers risk but cannot guarantee that a puppy will stay healthy.
Health tests and schemes the RKC lists for the Greyhound:
- Prioritising genetic diversity, for example by checking the coefficient of inbreeding of a planned mating (RKC Good Practice)
- DNA test for Greyhound neuropathy (GN) (RKC Best Practice)
- Breed Watch: Category 1
