Fee Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Bouncer is a 16 year old Labrador Cross who is looking for a new home through no fault of his own. He is currently in an Oldies Club foster home in Lincolnshire. This is what his foster family have to say about him: Bouncer is a friendly, small Lab cross of about knee height, who has a real zest for life and always has a wag in his tail for you. Despite his years, he’s still active and loves his walks and is a perfect gentleman on the lead. He lets you know if he feels it’s walk time, by bouncing up and down in front of you. He’s also very happy to potter around the garden and explore at his leisure. Bouncer travels well in the car too and settles down straight away, even on short journeys. Bouncer loves children and is very calm and gentle around them. He loves being groomed and will happily sit for as long as you are willing to brush him. He is fantastic with our cat; he wags his tail and watches from a respectful distance. He’s very polite with other dogs he meets when out on his walks and he’s always very pleased to meet them. He’s also met our chickens and they are slowly learning to get along. Bouncer is very clean in the house and can be left for up to 4 hours in the daytime. The only time he barks is to let you know that he needs to go out. He sleeps well through the night and sometimes even enjoys a lie in! If there’s a sofa available he likes to sneak on, but has never jumped up when we are present. Bouncer is a bit deaf, but responds if you clap your hands or click your fingers loudly. His eyesight isn’t too good either, although he manages perfectly well as long as there are no real tricky obstacles to manoeuvre. Bouncer is a perfect gentleman who would fit into any household. Aside from a couple of harmless fatty lumps and what our vet has termed “Labrador love handlesâ€, he has a clean bill of health and is now ready to find his very own retirement home. Bouncer has been successfully treated for an ear-mite infection. He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and flea and worm treated. If you would like to find out more about Bouncer, please refer to our Adoption Procedures for information about the adoption process. You can then contact an Oldies Club rehoming co-ordinator as follows: Email: [email protected] Telephone: 0844 586 8656 Bouncer can be rehomed anywhere in the UK, subject to a satisfactory home visit, but please note that you will be required to travel to the foster home to meet him.

BOB Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Keep your fingers and paws crossed for Bouncer - he's having visitors this evening and could end up with a potential greyhound girlfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOB Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Unfortunately Bouncer was not the dog for them (they are going to taken on a Lurcher that has been in kennels for 9 months). Bouncer very much enjoyed his walk with the tall glamourous greyhound though and even gave her a big kiss before she left. Quite the gentleman.
