About Dusty
Please only apply for this greyhound if you have:
- A backyard for Dusty's zoomies.
- Children over 8 years
Dusty is the King of Toys – he just LUVS playing with them!
You can cancel your Netflix subscription and just be entertained by Dusty’s joyful antics as he plays with his toys and even better, if you want to join in his play.
Dusty enjoys his walks and loves those sniffaris but once home he is quite happy to snooze on the couch. He has been on Greyhound Walks and is a well-behaved boy. He is fine out walking with other dogs and shows no interest in ducks, birds etc.
At home he just loves to chill out with you and sometimes enjoys a cuddle on the couch with his foster mum.
Being a country lad, he is not keen on very noisy environments like shopping centres but is gaining more confidence all the time.
Dusty would love a home with another sighthound or medium/large dog to play with. Otherwise, someone who is home more than not and has a yard for his zoomies, so he can throw a few more toys around.
Children over 8 years would be best as his play can be boisterous.
We know Dusty will make a wonderful companion – is he the handsome boy you have been waiting for you?
[Note: Under Victorian Law greyhounds must be on-leash at all times in public areas, including in off-leash parks or ovals]
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
