Sarah has been at the RSPCA Block Fen Animal Centre since November 2021.

Before that, Sarah had been at another centre since March 2021. She only became available for rehoming in December 2022, as a result of the court proceedings involving her original owners. Other dogs who had been rescued along with Sarah have already been rehomed but all of Sarah's potential new homes have fallen through.

RSPCA Supervisor at the centre, Tiffany Saunders, said: “We were all just gutted when Sarah’s latest new home fell through. She was so very close - we understand completely why they had to change their minds - but it just left us all feeling so disheartened because we really thought this time she had got her own happy ever after."

As she didn’t know how to walk on a lead, she had to be carried out by the centre's staff. Tiffany added: “She’s also been such a support to new dogs that come into the RSPCA care - we have watched her comforting other dogs in the kennels next to her and she’s even tried to share her ragger toy with them to play with her. She’s recently had her first big day out when she took part in a charity sight hound walk and she was such a good girl - she didn’t put a paw wrong and she really did enjoy her day.

“Sarah is a kind, gentle, stunningly beautiful girl - and I do not know why this lovely girl is still waiting." Sarah is described as being sweet natured and has a lot of energy. While she initially comes off as shy, Sarah’s loving nature comes out after she has bonded with you.

Her playful and affectionate personality means that Sarah “loves nothing more than zooming around and playing with her male friends." As she is only used to living in a kennel, Sarah finds new situations quite overwhelming and she will need some further training in terms of day-to-day commands. The RSPCA Sarah would make a brilliant companion for an experienced lurcher owner.
