Meet Patch! This young lad will steal your heart with his happiness. Whether he's exploring the yard or sitting quietly by your side while you watch TV, Patch's jovial presence will brighten your day.
Patch is incredibly adaptable, thriving in both house and apartment living scenarios. Currently, he's enjoying a foster home with a doggy door that allows him access to a yard throughout the day. He's shown the ability to co-exist wonderfully with other dogs, but he's also content spending time by himself, showing great independence.
Patch has had some exposure to children and has been well-behaved. He's capable of spending hours alone without issue. His toileting habits are impeccable, holding it all day and at night.
He loves exploring and gets excited easily, especially upon seeing his favourite humans returning home. Currently he is having walkies twice a day for around 20 minutes each.
Patch's background as a greyhound doesn't perturb him from noises; in fact, he's not bothered by them and could easily adjust to city life. He's displayed peaceful interactions with a whippet, reflecting his friendly disposition.
Whether you're a first-time dog owner or an experienced one, Patch is a perfect fit. He is a happy, young greyhound,who just loves spending time with you. He doesn't need constant entertainment; he’s just content being in your company, filling your home with joy and laughter.
At Homeward Bound Hounds, we pride ourselves on matching the right dog to the right family. We need to know more about you and your home to find the best possible match.
