Adoption information
About Heidi & Tuppence
Please only apply for this greyhound if you have:
- A grassed yard for zoomies
- Children over 8 years
Meet Heidi and Tuppence — a bonded pair full of love, laughs, and greyhound sweetness.
These two girls have grown up together and give each other confidence. Together they are the perfect mix of cuddly, affectionate, and hilariously entertaining.
Tuppence (White & Black) will seek your love without hesitation, she has a good dash of silliness and has a bounce in her step. She will nibble your arm in a loving way and make sure you're safe everywhere you go.
Heidi (Black) longs for love and attention. She entertains herself with her toys and sometimes will ask you to play too. She will chase toys and collect things for her nest.
Both girls will greet people with enthusiasm and then settle in for a nap, until you leave the room. They can be quite boisterous and are learning to not be too rough, so for now no small or delicate humans.
They sleep well through the night and are learning not to react to all the noises. They walk well together and are growing in confidence.
Their dream home would have a secure garden for zoomies, toy throwing, and relaxing by your side while you potter around. They’re not keen gardeners themselves — just occasional “soil adjusters” in their chosen patch.
Heidi and Tuppence are still learning about the world. They’re unsure about small animals and have been comfortable with gentle introductions with larger dogs.
They’ve coped with their humans working full time, but would love a home where their people are around more often.
They’re a fun, bouncy pair looking for an experienced, confident pawrent who can continue their journey and help them become the best versions of themselves.
If you’re looking for two loving companions who will fill your home with cuddles, laughter, and plenty of squeaky toys, Heidi and Tuppence could be the perfect pair for you!
