Dolly - 3 year old female Greyhound

June 26th, 2008

Dolly is a beautiful black Greyhound female aged 3 years old. She was bred for racing but didn’t make the grade and was instead used as a coursing dog. Dolly is NOT cat friendly but loves other dogs and is friendly and sociable. She is quite small but very solidly built and has a lovely smiley face. Dolly has come to us together with Puzzle and Yippee from a dreadful situation in Ireland.

You can read more about their story here. Dolly and her friends appear to be in good shape physically but they are understandably very nervous dogs who ideally would be better placed in a home with another steady dog for company. We will NOT be homing them with small children.

Dolly is now in a foster home where she has been for 5 days. She is absolutely loving it! Dolly shares her billet with 9 (yes nine!) other dogs and she simply adores their company. Although still nervous with the humans in the house, she is coming round and now wags her tail in delight when she greets them in the morning. Dolly is clean in the house during the day, and is coming along nicely with it overnight too.

She is okay to be left at home with the other dogs and is a quiet girl around the house. Breakfast time is Dollys’ favourite time of the day, second only to teatime, when she positively wags her bottom with delight at the sight of her bowl. This lovely girl will make a fabulous pet in a quiet country home with other dogs for company ~ does that sound like your house?
