About Kelly & Zinda
Are you a couple keen for a greyhound? But don't want the complext issues of separation anxiety in your hound? So why not consider getting two greyhounds, who will keep each other company while you are out! We can assure you it is the best decision you will make!
Kelly and Zinda (Lucinda) are two amazing little sisters who R2R wish to adopt together as they are a bonded pair who have lived most of their lives together. It's hard to imagine them apart, however they do have a classical sibling relationship with occasional moments of sibling rivalry.
Both Zinda and Kelly are energetic dogs who enjoy a good walk every day. They are great on leash and very easy to walk as a pair. They respond well to a calm direction, and given the opportunity they are more interested in just having a sniff and sussing the new dog out. They line up to get harnessed when its walk time and are very aware of the routine surrounding their walks and food.
Both dogs are quite energetic and even with their walks, they love to have a bit of a play across the day as well. They will occasionally work each other up in excitement and go outside for some zoomies. Aside from play time, they are generally pretty calm and quiet, content to just laze around. They are both very affectionate dogs, Lucinda loves a good neck rub and will chatter her teeth out of excitement. Kelly is more cat-like and likes to nuzzle and lean on you. Kelly also really enjoys a good scratch just above the tail and will often roach if you do it while she is laying down. Both dogs love humans and are very inquisitive with new people.
On walks, Zinda has grown in confidence, while Kelly is generally quite calm, and may just lean a little for comfort if she feels uncomfortable. These two keep each other company, and clearly draw great comfort and companionship from one another. They feed off each other as far as confidence goes. They would likely suit someone active who is willing to provide good daily walks for them together. They would be fine with children over the age of 8 years.
Do you have a loving home for these greys? So many people get one greyhound and then within a year get a second... but these sisters just rub along together. So why not take the plunge with a bonded pair like Kelly and Zinda - and get double the love and affection in return!
