Meet Stacey and her muscular chest! Stacey and her ears are just adorable, they flop all over the place.

Luca

4 years old

Child tolerant

Perfect Luca, he is sweet, sensitive and soulful. He isn't a massive bubbly personality, but he does give you the warm fuzzies when he comes over and wants to give and receive all the cuddles. He is more of a introvert that loves deeply but doesn't go out of their way to make sure everyone knows it, and honestly, we love that about him. We think this boy will make someone very happy and they will think he is "perfect"! Luca has recently spent time with the behaviour team to prep him ready for the big wide world and he has come away with new skills and his bags packed. We think he may suit living with children 10 and over and maybe even a medium or large canine buddy to live with.

Loving and loyal

Once a Greyhound lets you in, they become incredibly loyal, forming 
deep bonds and showing affectionate devotion.

Quiet companions

Greyhounds are quiet and reserved, making them excellent neighbors 
in shared living spaces.

Independent thinkers

Greyhounds are obedient yet independent, combining problem-solving skills with a self-assured nature.
