Lucky ~ Stunning Little Miss - 2yo Brindle Greyhound

LUCKY

**UPDATED: MAY 2012**

Meet little Lucky. She is a 2.5 year old greyhound girl with a beautifully marked brindle coat and 4 sets of white toes. She is a petite little girl at just 25” to the shoulder, and curls up oh so small on the sofa. This lass is a real stunner and we don’t expect her to be hanging around for long! She was handed in to us along with her sister, Gypsy, who has already been rehomed.



~ Personality ~
Lucky is just super in every way. She is very affectionate and sweet but also confident, with the most heart melting expression we’ve seen in a long time! She adores people and is just delighted now that she is in a foster home getting all the love and fuss she wants. Meet this girl and she is guaranteed to wriggle her way straight to your heart.



~ In the Home ~
Lucky is doing very well in her foster home, making her foster parents proud for the last 3 months. She is sharing her foster home with other dogs and gets along brilliantly with them. She shares her food and toys without a fuss, and loves to run just as much as she loves to curl up with you and watch the telly. She can have a bit of trouble distinguishing shoes from toys, but she’s learning at she goes.

Lucky is also just as good with children and is gentle in the home. She would be a really great family dog and can go to a home with children over the age of 8. She can also have moments of bouncy excitement, such as during play or before a walk, and this is being gradually worked on with her fosterers. She is not uncontrollable, just sometimes all the love she has can spill over!

Lucky can be left with other dogs for company with no problems at all. She has also been left for short periods with just a kong for company without trouble, and this is something that could be worked on and lengthened by her new owners if needed.



~ Other Animals ~
Lucky is great with other dogs of all sizes, enjoys meeting them and loves a good run with any that can keep up with her. She would do great in a home with another dog or two to play with her and keep her entertained, especially if she is to be left for periods of time. Her excitement at having a play buddy can sometimes means she gets a bit carried away, so she might be a bit OTT for a very small or delicate dog. Lucky likes her rough and tumble! She is not suitable for a home with cats, though doesn’t create a huge fuss if she sees them when out walking.



~ Out and About ~
Lucky is a good girl on her walks, friendly and inquisitive. She gets a bit bouncy when she sees the leads, but soon calms down once out on the walk. This lovely girl has not seen much of the world up until now, so absolutely everything interests her and is worth exploring. She still has a lot to experience in the big wide world, but is very eager to learn and see it all. She has learned that the portal to all things fun and new is the car, so she absolutely loves going on car journeys. She can also be left in the car for short periods of time without worry.



Lucky’s fosterer feels that because she is such a young, exuberant girl, she would benefit from getting a decent amount of daily exercise with several offlead romps a week if possible. Her recall training is coming along very well, and she is a good girl who is eager to learn and listen when needed.



~ Where Am I? ~
Lucky 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 us in Norfolk to meet her.

~~ KERRY GREYHOUNDS UK ~~

Kerry Greyhounds UK is a small voluntary organisation that is based in Norfolk, England. It focuses on rehoming unwanted Irish greyhounds and lurchers, as huge numbers are bred in Ireland each year and homes are few and far between. KGUK operates through a network of volunteers spaced over Ireland and the UK. We can look after approximately 30 dogs at any one time in both kennels and foster homes.

Each dog is neutered, vaccinated, & microchipped before being adopted (unless stated otherwise).
We assess the suitability of all home offers, and we have homed greyhounds in all corners of the UK.
