From our Australia Friends: Hulk is an energetic and loving greyhound with a heart full of enthusiasm! He is a fantastic walker who enjoys going for long walks and would thrive in a home with an active lifestyle. He walks beautifully on leash, making every outing a pleasure. Hulk is incredibly stable and confident, adjusting easily to new surroundings. He is a social butterfly, always eager to engage with people and share his joy- his tail is constantly wagging in excitement! If you're looking for a happy, active, and affectionate companion, Hulk is ready to bring lots of love and energy into your life. Hulk's foster mom says he is quite the dog! He was born on October 1, 2020 so is currently 4.5 years old. He has no exposure to children, but definitely knows he is way too interested in cats to live with them. He passed his test for tolerance with small dogs. He is listed as 34kg, which converts to about 75 lbs. We feel that Hulk will do best living with a family who has a yard for him to exercise in, and the desire to be very active on a daily basis. More as we get to know him! Update from his foster home! Mr Banner/Hulk is a black male, born on 10/01/202. He is out of Zambora Brockie (sire) and Bonna Bale (dam). Hulk/Banner needs a forever home! He is looking for a family with structure that is active in some way (hikers, campers, RVers, dog sports) with no small children or cats. If this sounds like you, please read on! This boy is one of those special greys that has confidence to spare. He is bold, curious, and athletic, with tons of personality- not to mention he is handsome! This gives him "bomb proof" personality. He will investigate everything in his environment, high or low, small space or big. He is NOT hyper, just has an insatiable curiosity. Because of that, he seems almost indifferent to people- but that is a lie! He does enjoy attention and cuddles (his foster mom can pick him up and put him in her lap without him turning into a stiff board) and is gentle to handle. Also for a dog with his strength and interests, his is very good on leash. He is also very food motivated and has been wonderful in his kennel. He does have high prey drive (no cats), but is fine with dogs of all sizes- though he has no problem speaking up if the other dog is doing something he doesn't like. Banner is a boy that is going to test some boundaries, and therefore needs a definite structured environment where he has clearly defined boundaries. He has exhibited sleep startle- thus no small children. (He does like kids. He is just a bit much for small ones.) His foster mom is working on training with the sleep startle issues. He was originally called Hulk, but his foster home says he responds better to Banner. He is not a destructive dog by nature, but with his curiosity he does tend to bump into things. He is mellowing with more house time, but isn't likely to be the normal "couch potato" greyhound. Banner is a very special, unique greyhound that will blossom with a family who will give him the boundaries and adventures he needs to truly be comfortable forever.
