Tippy

Have you ever met a greyhound with a coat so soft? Tippy has wonderfully plush fur, and a sweet personality to match, and she is ready to find a new family.

Contrary to popular belief, greyhounds do not need endless amounts of daily exercise; they love a long nap just as much as the next dog! Tippy will, of course, love a daily walk so that she can stretch her long elegant legs and explore new sights and smells. A bit of social play in the backyard with a fun squeaky toy will also get her moving. A food motivated girl, Tippy will enjoy learning some basic skills to compliment her beautiful leash walking. As she does love to snack, a good puzzle toy or long-lasting chew treat will keep her happy and busy, especially when she is home alone. At the end of an adventure-filled day, relaxing on a comfy bed or spot on the lounge beside you is top of Tippy's agenda.

Arriving at the shelter with a fellow greyhound, and having enjoyed some social interactions here at the shelter, Tippy has proven to be an amiable canine pal. With the right match, she could potentially integrate into a household with another dog friend. She would best suit a home with no cats or pocket pets; these little furry critters may not appreciate Tippy's enthusiastic style of play.

We hope that you will be as captivated as we are by Tippy's 'helicopter' tail and sociable nature. If this friendly and goofy greyhound sounds like the girl for you, please come and meet Tippy at the shelter.
