Richard - 2 year old male Lurcher

Meet the handsome Richard or Dick to his friends. This Lurcher lad recently made his way into our care from a stray pound situation and is just such a sweetheart. We estimate this Greyhound boy to be around 2 years of age maybe even slightly younger. Dick is a tall boy though and is around 29-30 inches to the shoulder so not a small lurcher, we guestimate his breeding to be probably Greyhound/Saluki/Collie cross.

He is such a sweet natured, cheeky, playful but also loving and gentle boy. He is now in foster care with 2 female Greyhounds and one male all of whom he gets on well with. Out on lead he is a good boy and walks well, so far he hasn’t reacted to other dogs of any breed when they are on or off the lead. He has also had an off lead run in an enclosed field and his recall is said to be quite good already. This boy just wants to please. He also travels well.

Since landing in his foster home he has had a couple of accidents but other than that been clean, he loves to play with the other dogs but will also happily play on his own with toys and isn’t bothered by having to amuse himself.

We feel this lad would be great in a home with other dogs or capable as settling as an only dog if he was only left for a few hours. He settles well overnight and has been left for a few hours during the day with the other dogs for company and has been fine. Dick has not yet been cat tested but we are hoping to arrange this shortly. Dick is flea treated, de-wormed, micro-chipped, vaccinated, KC vaccinated and neutered.
