🥰 Four year old Sandy is a strong, playful gal. She is seeking a forever home without cats or small dogs. Read more: Sandy is a friendly affectionate dog who loves to be petted and spend time with her people. She has been well behaved with the children she has met (the children were age 6 and up) and gets along well with the greyhound she currently lives with. Her house manners are good. She has not had any accidents in the house or shown any destructive behavior. She still needs a little assistance to get into the car, and rides well once she is in. At night she sleeps on a dog bed in my bedroom and waits patiently for me to get up in the morning. Sandy can be crated when I go out (in exchange for a small treat). She has also behaved well when I leave her loose in the house together with my dog.
Sandy enjoys toys, especially the squeaky ones and likes to get them ALL out of the toy basket. She also sometimes enjoys a game of fetch in the backyard. She has her own rules for the game: I throw the ball, if she feels like it she chases the ball and sometimes she brings it back to me. You know, like a typical greyhound!
When Sandy goes out for a walk another side of her personality comes out. She is a hunter. When out walking she is intensely alert, constantly scanning the area for any sign of prey, such as squirrels, rabbits, cats or small dogs. As a result she requires an alert walker with a strong hand on the leash.
Sandy cannot live with cats or small animals. She would do best with people who can give her plenty of love and attention and can work with her strong prey drive. She also would like a yard as she is so focused during her walks, she sometimes forgets to take care of business until she gets back to her backyard where she can relax.
