Adoption information
About Skye
Please only apply for this greyhound if you have:
- Are at home as much as out
- Children over 8 years
Beautiful Skye is a young girl bursting with puppy enthusiasm, love and a wonderfully goofy personality! She loves her daily walks, zoomies and playing with her collection of toys, which she proudly gathers on her bed.
Skye is an affectionate sweetheart who adores cuddles and will happily shower you with many, many kisses. She answers to her name, uses the dog door perfectly, walks well on the lead, travels beautifully in the car and gets along well with people and other dogs. Skye is at that wonderful young age where every day brings something new to discover, and she's ready to share all her love, laughter and silly antics with her very own family.
She's learning not to be startled by unexpected noises when out and about, so a patient home to help build her confidence would be ideal. With her energy well managed by daily walks and playtime, Skye would suit an active home with children aged 8 years and over, another friendly dog, or someone who works mainly from home. She also manages well when left alone for periods.
If you're looking for a loving, playful companion who will keep you smiling with her silly antics and endless affection, Skye could be the girl to make your house her home! 🏠
[Note: Under Victorian Law greyhounds must be on-leash at all times in public areas, including in off-leash parks or ovals]
