About Jessie
Jessie loves her life s a pet. She moved in and was relaxed from day one. She is very good with her foster aunty and brother, both greyhounds. They share things nicely (mostly).
Jessie is toilet trained and will go to the door to tell you when it’s time. She loves her dinner and treats but is not food obsessed. Jessie loves to play with her squeaky toys and in between these bursts of activity she is happy to lounge about with you. She is an expert roacher. Jessie also likes to watch TV with you, providing it’s a show with dogs. She will study the screen tilting her head with fascination.
Jessie loves her walks and is good on lead. She is polite with all the dogs she meets. Jessie also laps up the attention she gets from neighbours. She know she is a stunning red fawn beauty and enjoys the greetings and extra pats.
Jessie is an easy loving and affectionate girl. She would be happy to live with another suitable dog for companionship but she has never been left alone in her foster home.

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.
