Tamakin Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 SAMSON Meet the very stunning Samson. This boy is a 3 year old ex-racing greyhound boy. Samson has a beautiful blue tuxedo coat with big striking amber eyes. He is in lush condition with a satin soft coat that just begs to be stroked. ~ Personality ~ Samson is a lovely lively chap and is very friendly. He enjoys interacting with people and is always ready for another cuddle. This boy has lots of potential and is a real outgoing boy, greatly enjoying being out and about, seeing the world. ~ Other Animals ~ Samson is good with the other greyhounds in our kennels and absolutely loves getting to stretch his legs offlead with his other houndy mates. He has not been tested yet with smaller dogs or cats, but these can be carried out prior to adoption if required. Often ex-racing greyhounds need a bit of socialisation with smaller dog breeds as they would never have seen them before and at the start may not realise they are dogs! [/b] ~ Out and About ~ Like most greyhounds, Samson will be content with two 30min walks a day and perhaps a chance to stretch his legs offlead in a safe area once or twice a week. He is a bit strong on the lead right now, but we are sure this will settle down once he is getting more regular daily exercise and play time. ~ 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? ~ Samson is currently in kennels in Norfolk, UK. He can be homed anywhere in the UK, but please note that you will be required to travel to meet and collect him. ~ Want To Adopt Me? ~ Samson is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, de-flea'd and wormed and a homecheck will be required as part of the adoption procedure. This dear boy would benefit so very much from a chance to live in a foster home and Kerry Greyhound Connection is always eager for new foster volunteers. It is an extremely rewarding experience and costs are covered by us. If you are interested in adopting or short-term fostering Samson, please email me on [email protected] for our adoption application form and information pack. Emails are usually replied to within 24 hrs. Thanks! ~~ KERRY GREYHOUND CONNECTION ~~ Kerry Greyhound Connection is a small voluntary organisation that has bases in Co. Kerry, Ireland and Norfolk, England. It operates through a network of volunteers spaced over Ireland, the UK and mainland Europe.
