Dog of the Month

Adonis: May Dog of the Month – Adopted!!

April 30, 2022

Please contact Moira Corrigan for more information about Adonis.

Adonis
Tag No: 6850
Registered Name: Slatex Adonis
Breed: Greyhound
Date of Birth: February 8, 2018
Color: Red
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: Ok with greyhounds, No Small Dogs
Kid Friendly: No young children
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: Adonis is a friendly, confident, happy, upbeat boy. He is active and playful. Adonis loves his walks. He loves to play and also loves neck scritches. He is curious about anything new and acts like a puppy. He loves to play with other medium to large sized dogs. Adonis has lived in a home briefly, but did not get along with the adult daughter who was in the home periodically. Adonis is a big boy and his new family must be able to handle a dog of his size and confidence. We do not recommend him with young children as he has shown some signs of being a little protective of his space when lying down.

Juniper: March Dog of the Month

March 7, 2022

Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about Juniper

Juniper
Tag No: 6825
Registered Name: None
Breed: German Shepherd Mix
Date of Birth: Approx April 2020
Color: Fawn/White
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: Unknown
Kid Friendly: No young children
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: I hope you watched my video (at the end of this page) — one of my trainers was playing tag with me and you can easily see how much FUN I am!!!

My name is Juniper and I can’t wait to tell you all about myself! Because a kennel in Woodinville was kind enough to help me, I moved from California. However, I ended up in a place where people come to meet Greyhounds and they don’t have much interest in dogs that aren’t Greyhounds. Well, I may not be a Greyhound, but I am a pretty special girl!!

There are so many things that I love to do that I can’t list them all but … I’ll try. I’m learning to fetch (& I even give it back), food toys are so much fun that my caretakers usually give me my meals in a food toy. Puzzles really make me think and it doesn’t take me long to figure them out. I know commands such as sit, down, shake, touch!! I am still working on my manners and they are improving!!! I walk well on a leash and I love to go on walks and explore the world. I think a run once in a while is really fun!! I know how to make my person feel really special … I lean on them, cuddle, give kisses & give them all my attention!

In the interest of full disclosure, I do have to say that there are a few things I am still working on. I may be a little nervous when I first meet you (and I may even bark at you) but as soon as I figure out that you are okay, I can be your best friend! I am really strong but my trainers are helping me learn not to pull too much. The trainers are even going give my new owner 4 free lessons just to make sure that we get off on the best foot possible!

I guess you also need to know the basics … I am about 2 years old and I was hit by a car which left me with a small head tilt (which just makes me cuter in my opinion)!! I have hip dysplasia which could need surgery at some time in the future but there is no way to know whether or not that will ever be needed. As of right now, I am just fine!

I am NOT a Greyhound — I look kind of like a retriever and my DNA test showed that I am 45% German Shepherd, 42% Staffordshire Terrier, 11% American Pit Bull Terrier & 2% cattle dog. If you are looking for a new family member to be your shadow, partner and very best friend, I think you better come meet me!! (PLEASE!!!)

Plato: March Dog of the Month – ADOPTED!

March 1, 2022

Photos by Ross Nooney

Please contact Moira Corrigan for more information about this Plato.

Plato
Tag No: 6796
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound
Date of Birth: August 2019
Color: Dark Brindle
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: Ok with greyhounds, Unknown with others
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: Plato is upbeat, friendly and outgoing. He is on the higher energy side for a greyhound so will need a more active home. Plato is a big boy and confident in most situations, so he may be too much dog for young children. Plato will need a home with a fenced yard and without cats. He is young and not suitable for an apartment/condo/townhome. Ponce and Plato are brothers, but sadly there is no brotherly love in this family.

If you would like to sponsor Plato, you can get more info on how to do so, here: https://www.greyhoundpetsinc.org/support/sponsor-a-dog/

Breed: Greyhound Lurcher
Date of Birth: July 2, 2018

Dog Friendly: See comments

Comments: Lilly is an upbeat, friendly girl. She likes being active and is very playful. She likes being around people, but has a high prey drive so would do best as an only dog. Lilly will need a home with a fenced yard and without cats. Due to her prey drive, we do not recommend Lilly for a home with young children. Lilly is eager to learn and enjoys working with our volunteers/trainer. Lilly comes with 4 training sessions with our trainer. YouTube video of Lilly: https://youtu.be/ZCqmuuIPWCM

Lilly would love to have a sponsor while she waits for her forever family to adopt her. If this sounds like something you'd like to do, see: https://www.greyhoundpetsinc.org/support/sponsor-a-dog/
