Blondie

Meet Blondie, a quiet, gentle and oh-so-sweet girl who is looking for a patient home where she can feel safe, settled and loved. She can take a little time to warm up to new people and surroundings, but once she finds her feet, her affectionate nature shines through. She loves being close to her favourite humans and canine companions, and one of her most delightful traits is the big bum wiggle she gives when her people arrive home. It's her very own special welcome!

Blondie is a bit of a homebody and is happiest enjoying the comforts of home. She's still building her confidence when it comes to heading out for walks, with traffic and unfamiliar noises a little scary for her at this stage. A quiet neighbourhood would be ideal, along with a family who understands that daily walks may not always be on the agenda until she's ready. Her limited outings certainly don't stop her from being a wonderful housemate, though! She's beautifully behaved indoors, doesn't get into mischief and is quite content pottering around at home.

Blondie currently lives with another greyhound in foster care and absolutely loves having a canine friend to follow around and take confidence from. She would love to continue having a doggy companion in her new home, and could potentially live with a dog of any size. Having a furry friend by her side would be a wonderful support as she continues to grow in confidence.

She would suit a townhouse or a house with a yard and could happily join a full-time working family, provided she has a canine companion for company. A home without children, or with teenagers aged 16 and over, would be best. She may also be cat-tolerant, although this is yet to be tested.

At home, Blondie is very much an indoor girl and has lovely toileting habits, confidently using her doggy door whenever she needs to head outside. She is also a big fan of food and treats! Just be mindful of leaving anything tasty within reach, as this clever girl may decide to help herself.

Blondie is a beautiful little soul who doesn't need a big social calendar or grand adventures to be happy. She simply needs a loving, understanding home, a comfy spot to snooze and perhaps a canine friend to show her the ropes. Give her the time and patience she deserves, and you'll be rewarded with a sweet, affectionate companion who will greet you every day with the happiest little bum wiggles!
