Dog of the Month

Aurora: December Dog of the Month

December 1, 2023

auroratitle
Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about Aurora.

Aurora
Tag No: 6948
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound Mix
Date of Birth:  Approx March 2019
Color: Black
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: Unknown
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Weight: 70 pounds
Location: Foster home.
Comments: Aurora is absolutely darling!!!  She is very affectionate and friendly!  Aurora LOVES belly rubs and loves to be outside and sunbathe!  She has been in a foster home since the beginning of May and is doing wonderfully.  She lives with another greyhound and a smaller dog and does really well with both.  Her foster mom says she loves to cuddle and if you sit on the floor with her, she will rest her head on you somehow.  Aurora loves balls, not to fetch but to squeak!  She has the cutest stretch, and yawns and makes a funny sound when she does.  She is so sweet and wants to please.  Her foster mom has taught her to sit and is working on "paw".  Aurora is eager to please and loves playing with toys.  She walks well on leash (most of the time - on occasion she can be quite strong) and loves her walks.  Aurora does have a high prey drive when she sees something move outside, so she needs someone who can continue her training (she works well with redirection).  There are two other dogs in her foster home, and they like to play fight - Aurora doesn't get involved when they do, but if she does, she likes to slap with her paws and since she is so strong, she could hurt a small dog, but if you tell her to stop, she does!  She has done well on her housebreaking.  She also eats well and is not protective of her food.  Aurora is really good in the car and mostly sleeps.  Her foster mom thinks she will do well with other dogs and/or children as she has poked and prodded and done all the things a greyhound often doesn't like, and Aurora has not reacted at all!  What a sweetie!  Aurora may be ok as an only dog, but she does not like to be crated.  Aurora will need a home without cats and with someone who can manage her strength.   This is one special girl - such a cuddle bug - someone is missing out on this sweetheart!

November 1, 2023

tippahappythanksgiving2
Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about Tippa.
Tippa
Tag No: 6964
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound
Date of Birth:  August 9, 2021
Color: Black
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: Ok with greyhounds, No small dogs
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments:  Tippa is a fun, friendly, outgoing boy!  He is playful and upbeat!!  Tippa came to us from Australia and will just make you laugh!  He loves to play ball and enjoys activity of any kind.  He is still young and never raced, so will need someone to guide him in the ways of the world.  Tippa broke a leg as a young pup, but it doesn't slow him down at all. Tippa will need a home without cats and/or small dogs.  He is not suitable for an apartment/condo/townhome.
Tippa is looking for a sponsor.  Could that be you?  More info here:  https://www.greyhoundpetsinc.org/support/sponsor-a-dog/

Turnip: October Dog of the Month

September 30, 2023

turniptitle
Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about Turnip.

Turnip
Tag No: 6988
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound
Date of Birth:  Dec 6, 2019
Color: Fawn
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: See Comments
Kid Friendly: See Comments
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments:  Turnip is outgoing, confident, friendly and happy.   He likes affection and is sweet and friendly with people. Turnip is high energy, confident and very strong.  Due to his high prey drive and strength, we do not recommend Turnip with younger children.  He would also do best in a home with a fenced yard with an active family and a 6 foot fence.  He is very confident, so will likely need to be an only dog.  Turnip will need a home without cats or small dogs for sure.  Turnip came to us from Australia.

Sponsored by Shabari Girish Ganapathy, in memory of Leo

Turnip would like to have a sponsor until he gets adopted.  Interested?  If so, see: https://www.greyhoundpetsinc.org/support/sponsor-a-dog/

Plato: September Dog of the Month

September 1, 2023

platotitlenoo4
Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about Plato.
Plato
Tag No: 6796
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound
Date of Birth:  August 2019
Color: Dark Brindle
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: See Comments
Kid Friendly: No
Weight:  65
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments:  Plato is a friendly, playful guy.  He loves to play ball and loves car rides.  And he loves those neck scritches.  He can be unsure of anything new, so needs a calm, confident adopter.  He may need to be an only dog in his home as he injured the female greyhound in his previous home.  Plato is doing well with our trainers and has been very well behaved with our volunteers.  We do not recommend him with children.  Plato would do best in a home with a fenced yard, without cats or other dogs. If you would like to help support Plato while he waits for his forever home, you might want to consider sponsoring him.  More info here:  https://greyhoundpetsinc.org/support/sponsor-a-dog/
