Clove

Greyhound · Female · Adult · 4 years

Spice up your life with Clove! This sweet and spirited ex-racing Greyhound is ready to put her racing days behind her and discover the joys of home life. Clove has plenty of personality, from her playful side and love of squeaky toys to her wonderfully friendly nature with people. She can be a little bouncy when excited, but underneath this is a gentle girl who is learning to find her paws in the world. Clove has been confident and relaxed on walks and particularly enjoys exploring green spaces away from busy roads. She loves soft toys, balls and anything that squeaks, and she also enjoys food-based enrichment such as scatter feeding and slow feeders. Around larger dogs, Clove can be friendly but sometimes feels unsure, preferring to keep her distance and enjoy a calm parallel walk with a steady companion. She has shown more interest in smaller dogs and may be inclined to chase, so she will need to be kept on lead and muzzled when out as part of her current rehoming criteria. Clove is looking for patient owners who understand that she may need time to adjust to life in a home, as she has likely never experienced one before. She will need a private, secure garden and would prefer to be the only dog, although there may be potential to live with another sighthound following successful introductions. She cannot live with cats or other small furries, due to her chase drive. Clove would suit a home with sensible school age children who can give her space when needed. We advise that her new family should be around for most of the settling-in period and be prepared to gradually build up alone time, as well as patiently helping her with housetraining and getting used to everyday household life. The most important thing is giving this lovely girl the time, guidance and understanding she needs to flourish!
