Please contact Moira Corrigan ([email protected]) for more information about this dog.

Heidi
Tag No: 6777
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound Mix
Date of Birth: Approx Jan 2020
Color: White/Fawn
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: See Comments
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: Heidi was returned to us through no fault of hers. Heidi is very friendly and loves people. She can be a little shy at first, but opens up quickly. She loves to sun bath, and she loves pets and cuddles. Heidi loves the toys with squeakers and playing fetch and with balls. While Heidi can do ok with some other dogs given a slow introduction, she is quite happy as an only dog. Heidi loves her walks and just hanging with her human. Heidi will need a home without cats and most probably without any canine companions.

July 31, 2022

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

Sarah
Tag No: 6878
Registered Name: None
Breed: Greyhound Lurcher
Date of Birth: Approx Sept 2018
Color: White
Cat Trainable: No
Dog Friendly: No
Kid Friendly: Unknown
Location: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)
Comments: Sarah is delightful! She LOVES belly rubs!! She also loves to run and play. She is a fun, happy girl. Sarah likes to be active and would make a great running partner. Sarah came to us from South Korea. She is quite acrobatic and can scale a 6 foot fence. She does fine with our 8 foot chain link fences at the kennel, but she will likely have to go into an apartment/condo/townhome type home. Sarah would like to be the only apple of your eye.

Juniper: July Dog of the Month

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

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!!!)
