LIL

Lil is a 2 year old greyhound girl who was not fast enough for the race track. She is a beautiful little lassie with a black coat and white snowflakes running through it. She’s going to be a real stunner once she gains some condition in her coat and becomes a shiny black beauty.

Lil is a jolly, active little girl and enjoys getting out and about on her walks. She loves people and getting fuss and we think she’s going to totally adore toys once she learns what they are all about.

Lil gets on very well with our other greyhounds and causes no fuss. She has not been tested with small dogs or cats but these can be carried out prior to adoption if required. Often ex-racing greyhounds take a bit of socialisation work to realise smaller breeds are in fact dogs as they would never have seen them before.

Like most greyhounds, Lil will not need a huge amount of exercise. She will be content with two 20min walks a day and perhaps a chance to stretch her legs offlead in a secure area once or twice a week.

Lil has not yet been in a home environment, so new owners will need to be a bit understanding during the first couple of weeks and allow her time to settle and learn the house rules. It usually 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.

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.

This pretty little girl is currently being kennelled in Ireland, and can be transported via Kerry Greyhounds to the UK or Europe if a suitable home offer comes up. This will be organised and paid for by Kerry Greyhounds, and we ask only for a donation to help cover costs. She 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 fostering or adopting Lil, please email me on tamakin_84@yahoo.co.uk for our adoption application and information pack. Thanks!
