Here is Hope and her foster mum says she will make an amazing companion for someone!

Two-year-old Hope is a very cuddly girl and will look for any opportunity to curl up next to you and rest her head on your lap or shoulder. Hope would like to follow you around the house and have a dog bed (or spot on the couch/bed) as near to you as possible. She sometimes even lays on the bathmat while her mum is in the shower! She is not anxious, but we think she sees it as her job to be your shadow and close companion.

Hope is confident around humans and will approach people she doesn’t know for pats and love!

She is also very friendly and confident in interacting with greyhounds as well as other breeds of dogs big and small (while on leash).

This is great but she needs some help to be reminded about other dog’s boundaries. She has been barked at a few times & got a fright but this hasn’t put her off her friendly nature as everything is a learning curve for her!

She is interested in human food but is very polite and will only sniff it. She isn’t sure about treats yet but will happily eat them if they are placed on the ground.

She knows her name and will come when called. She also responds to the word “no” and doesn’t even need a stern voice to know she needs to stop what she is doing. Clever girl!

Hope is very good at toileting outside as long as she has plenty of opportunities to go out as her schedule is not quite in sync with her foster siblings.

Hope likes to relocate toys, so we have a few baskets around the house for her to choose from. She takes them one by one to a different room or to her chosen bed. She is not 100% sure yet which objects are toys, and which are human shoes, coasters, or dirty laundry! She doesn’t chew her things up, she just likes to collect them.

One of Hope’s quirks is that she can’t jump! She can only get up on things she can step up onto with her back legs. This means she can’t get into the car or onto the human beds without help. If you have a high couch, she might need help with that too!

Her owner will need to be strong enough to lift her – lucky she is small (by greyhound standards)! But then again, she may well figure it out! She can get down from the bed or car on her own.

If you would like to meet this lovely girl and enjoy plenty of cuddles.
