Tamakin Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 DESTINY Destiny is a 2 year old ex-racing greyhound girl. She is a dainty girl with a very long, elegantly shaped nose that gives her a very regal appearance. Once her coat improves and gets some shine to it, she’s going to be just beautiful. ~ Personality ~ Destiny is a friendly little girl with a waggy tail for everyone who comes and visits her. She enjoys people and is going to relish the home life so much. Destiny has just come to us so we are still assessing her. She will soon be placed in a foster home which will allow us to get a much better idea of her wonderful little personality. ~ Other Animals ~ Destiny has so far been well behaved with all the other dogs she has met, regardless of size or gender. She is a playful little girl and we’re sure there’s a cheeky streak hidden in there somewhere! Destiny would do well in a home with another similarly aged dog to keep her company and drain any excess energy. She has not been tested with cats yet but we will be doing this shortly. ~ In the Home ~ Little Destiny has just moved in to a foster home now, and we will be updating with her progress once she has a bit of time to adjust to the changes – this is her first time in a home. New owners will need to be a bit patient during the first couple of weeks and allow her time to settle into the home. It generally takes 10-14 days for new greyhounds to start to settle down in a home, and really all they need is a bit of time and patience. ~ Out and About ~ Destiny loves being out and about, and enjoys her walks. Like most greyhounds, Destiny will not need a huge amount of exercise. She will be content with two 30min walks a day and perhaps a chance to stretch her legs offlead in a secure area once or twice a week. ~ Greyhounds as Pets ~ In general greyhounds are calm, mannerly dogs that are well used to being handled. They can fit very well in to a wide range of different lifestyles and usually adjust to the home life very quickly. Their soft, easy going nature often makes them ideal to live in a family with children, while their love of lazing around and low exercise requirements can make them perfect for the elderly. Greyhounds also don’t shed as much as other more popular dog breeds and this can make them suitable to live with allergy sufferers. ~ Where Am I? ~ Destiny is currently being fostered in Norfolk, UK. She can be homed anywhere in the UK, but please note that you will be required to travel to her foster home to meet and collect her. ~ Want To Adopt Me? ~ Destiny is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, de-flea'd and wormed and a homecheck will be required as part of the adoption procedure. If you are interested in adopting Destiny, please email me on [email protected] for our adoption application form and information pack. Emails are usually replied to within 24hrs. Thanks! ~~ KERRY GREYHOUND CONNECTION ~~ Kerry Greyhound Connection is a small voluntary organisation that has bases in Co. Kerry, Ireland and Norfolk, England.
