Leigh & Swifty & Aussie

What an amazing pair of pooches! They've taken to their new digs with a gusto.

After giving the place a thorough sniffing over, they tucked in to a big dinner, then selected a couple of prime couch spots and got stuck into a good nap. They haven't looked back since! Aussie is the sweetest and happiest chap you could hope to meet. He starts every day with a big stretch, and then an even bigger smooch, nuzzling his face into you and gazing up with his beautiful big brown eyes to wish you the best 'good morning!' His sister, Swifty, is a hilarious ball of energy who gallops up and down the yard, waving her new best friend stuffed toy in the air.

Where she goes, Stuffy goes too, like partners in crime. She always has her friend close while taking a nap, or supervising me doing work outside. Their behaviour and nature are an absolute credit to their former owner. Their energy and enthusiasm for everything they encounter is infectious. It's been less than a week, and they've already changed the whole atmosphere of our household. I find myself looking forward to the next morning's 'hellos!' and as excited to see what the new day brings as they are. I already can't imagine the house without these two happy goofs in it.

Love Leigh

Hondo

6 years old

Handsome Hondo can't wait to find his forever home - is it with you? He's a confident and outgoing boy who can still get a bit excited when he meets new dogs, so he'd prefer a home with an experienced greyhound or sighthound owner. He would likely be ok with children aged ten or older, and should be fine with full time workers. Hondo has a heart murmur and comes with an approval for a follow up appointment for an echo, paid for by GAP.
