About Zola

Zola - named after well-known South African runner Zola Budd - is a sweet
natured young girl who never made it onto the race track. Although she is
very fast, like a number of Greyhounds brought into this world for racing,
she was given very little socialisation and handling as a pup. Hence she is
a bit wary of unfamiliar people and takes a while to develop confidence in
new surroundings. However, in the right home and with gentle encouragement,
she should flourish.
Within a few days of arriving in foster care, she now wags her tail, comes
for treats and lays next to her new human friends. Zola also likes
collecting items from around the house & arranges them on her bed - she's
even decided all the Christmas presents under the tree must be for her! Zola
walks without pulling on the lead and takes no notice of other dogs & birds
- although can be a bit nervous of big or boisterous dogs.
Zola would be best suited to a quiet home in the suburbs with a yard to play
in. Adults only or a family with older children (10 years plus) who are
familiar with dogs. The presence of another, perhaps older, Greyhound would
help to boost her confidence.
