Let me introduce myself! My name is Tiger and I am a very handsome brindle boy with a big personality. My foster Mum calls me the “loveable Artful Dodger” you know, the clever guy in the Dickens book. She says she has to be one step ahead of me at times. I can’t see why, as I am such a happy and amiable guy! I like to show my foster Mum manners and wait for the other dogs in my foster home to go through the door ahead of me – That impresses her! I also like to show incredible enthusiasm for meals or treats.

Next to food, my favourite thing is going for walks in the early morning with three humans and five other greyhounds. We make quite a show, and as the only brindle, I look pretty special. Some days, I will wear a top hat whilst on my walk just to show what a top guy I am! However I deviate… my foster Mum says I am clever. I like to give out one or two barks when I know food is coming. When she gets annoyed at that, I hide my face in the corner so it melts her heart. No one can stay annoyed at me for long as I have such an innocent and trusting face.

I love my couch and sometimes don’t mind another greyhound, Ava who is 8-years-old, sharing it with me. After all it was hers before I arrived. I love checking out what other dogs are doing in the reserve at the back of the house with my greyhound housemates. I spent two years in a trainer’s kennel and was told I was no good for the track and they said I was clumsy. If they had looked into my eye health, they would have seen I have a sight problem. The wonderful Greyhound Adoptions WA people took care of making my eyes better, and whilst they wont be perfect they dont cause me any problems. I get drops twice a day, accompanied by a treat, of course!

Now I am a confident, sometimes cheeky, guy who is happy to have a comfortable life. I would be happy for a forever home either with another happy dog or as an only dog with a human who is around a lot of the time.
