About Margie, the greyhound
If you are interested in Margie, or any of our Greyhounds, we require you to fill in our application form: https://forms.gle/4YdfUixpmWdJ4StT9
Margie is a beautiful, affectionate girl with a gentle nature and a playful streak that will quickly win you over. She absolutely adores human company and is happiest when she's curled up beside you for a cuddle or following you around the house. When she's not soaking up affection, you'll find her proudly carrying around her toys, enjoying a game, or racing around the garden with joyful zoomies.
Margie would be equally happy in a house or an apartment, provided she has regular access to a secure garden or yard where she can stretch her legs and enjoy a run. She has settled beautifully into home life, is fully toilet trained, happily lets you know when she'd like to go outside, and can comfortably spend around four hours home alone without any signs of distress.
Out and about, Margie walks beautifully on lead and is a pleasure to take to cafes, where she relaxes calmly by your side. She is still building confidence with some sudden loud noises but recovers quickly and is happy to continue on her walk. She is also learning a little more about walking politely without weaving across your path, and she's making steady progress.
Margie has lovely manners when meeting other dogs and has shown no concerns around dogs of any size while out walking or enjoying beach and café outings with Greyhounds and Whippets. While she hasn't yet been tested living indoors with another dog, she has shown friendly, relaxed behaviour during her interactions. She would suit both first-time and experienced dog owners. Because she can become excited and jump up to greet visitors, she'd be best suited to a home without very young children.
If you're looking for a sweet, loving companion who enjoys cuddles just as much as playtime, Margie could be the perfect addition to your family. She has a gorgeous balance of gentle affection and fun-loving energy, and she's ready to fill her forever home with love, laughter, and plenty of snuggles.
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.
