Additional Details:
From our Aussie friends: Junior is a sweet black male greyhound who's all about the love and fun! He's a big fan of bum scratches and will happily lean in for as many as you're willing to give. He enjoys his walks and is a dream on the lead, making him the perfect companion for outdoor adventures. He'd love a yard where he can run around, whether it's chasing toys or playing with kids. With his friendly, easy going nature and love for activity, Junior would make a great addition to an active household looking for a fun and affectionate buddy.
Junior will turn 5 in October. He tested safe with an Italian Greyhound and a Cavoodle, but not able to relax with the cats. He's also good with children. Junior is listed at 68 lbs so is a nice, medium-sized boy. More as we get to know this awesome boy! Updated testing! Junior has been tested again for his tolerance with cats. Unfortunately he's one of those greyhounds whose responses are inconsistent depending on the cat, how he feels, and the situation in which he is tested. He MAY be trainable if adopted by an owner with experience with both cats and greyhounds- an owner comfortable with consistent and clear testing and the ability to keep everyone safe. Because of that designation, we are currently marking him as NOT safe because most owners don't fit that experience level. If you are interested in adoption and feel that you may fit this description, feel free to contact us directly for more information. He is a marvelous dog but our first rule is safety, while also giving him every option to have a happy and peaceful retirement.
