About Kiki
I'm Kiki and I'm a petite and beautiful blue girl. At 2 years old, I'm still puppyish so most everything is new to me but I am learning quickly and, with lots of love, understanding and patience, I'm going to be the bestest girl ever.
Because I'm still young, I tend to be a bit unsure in unfamiliar circumstances but I'm learning to be a calm girl. I already don't pay attention to many loud things like wheelie bins, hair dryers and thunderstorms but I'm still learning about loud traffic noises.
Meanwhile, I love to play and am very good at chewing so I like lots of chew toys. I've been meeting other pooches out on walks and we get along just fine but I'd really prefer to be an only dog. My manners are already very good and my behaviour will be even better when I learn about all the different things in the world.
No cat or small dog homes
No full time workers unless working from home post COVID19
No children under six
Adoption details
Dogs are pack animals and Greyhounds, in particular, are very familiar with being surrounded by other dogs in their racing kennel environment. For this reason, when left alone without people or other dogs for company, they can be prone to separation anxiety which can manifest in destructive and/or noisy behaviour. Yes, they may "grow out" of it after a few weeks in their new home, but why put the dog through that stress to ultimately live all day alone, while everyone is at work? As a result we do not rehome dogs into households where they are left on their own for more than 4 hours per day, without either people or another dog for company.
During the COVID crisis, not all of our rescued Greyhounds will have the usual socialisation with other dogs so we may advise to use a muzzle in some situations until the dog is fully socialised.

Following your initial application, we conduct a home check. Our dogs are placed on a two week trial. The adoption fee is paid at time of placement and reimbursed if the trial is unsuccessful.
After the trial period is deemed successful, the adoption process is finalised.
