About Watson
Please only apply for this greyhound if you have:
- someone who is at home more often than not
- a grassed backyard to zoom and burn off energy!
This friendly and energetic boy is doing some detective work to find himself a loving forever home that will give him lots and lots of cuddles!
He is always up for a good time, whether it's playing with his favourite toys (the louder the squeak, the better!) or going for a long walk with his humans.
While Watson is great with other medium/large dogs, but he hasn't had much exposure to small dogs. He is a quick learner and is especially interested in getting to know those other funny-looking new dogs he sees around town. Watson (aka Blacky to some of his friends) is an avid environmentalist and quite the helper around the house and so will happily assist with the recycling by ripping up those pesky cardboard boxes. He's not a fussy eater and just loves sardines and pig ears as treats.
He loves a good ear scritch, is always eager to please, travels well in the car and of course he is toilet trained. Watson sleeps through the night and would ideally love two walks a day to keep him happy and healthy. But his favourite activity is snuggling up with his humans on the couch.
If you're looking for a loving and sweet boy who is a quick learner and eager to please, look no further than Watson, the cuddle king!
[Note: Under Victorian Law greyhounds must be on-leash at all times in public areas, including in off-leash parks or ovals]
