Nancy ~ 6yo CAT TRAINABLE Greyhound Lady (KGC)

NANCY

Nancy is a 6 year old greyhound lady. She has a lovely light fawn coat and gorgeously deep eyes.

Nancy has only just arrived with us so we are still getting to know her. She is quite a chunky girl, somewhat resembling a Labrador when viewed from behind! All this means is theres more of Nancy to love, however, and she is a very sweet, friendly girl. She walks well on the lead and is calm around the other greyhounds in the kennels. She has not been tested with cats or small dogs yet, but these can be carried out prior to adoption if necessary.

This lovely lady is currently in kennels in Ireland, and can be transported via Kerry Greyhounds to the UK or Europe if a suitable home offer comes up. This will be organised and paid for by Kerry Greyhounds, and we ask only for a donation to help cover costs. She is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped and a homecheck will be required as part of the adoption procedure.






**UPDATE 04/2010a**

Nancy has had a preliminary cat test and passed it with flying colours! This test involved placing her in the same room as the cat and gauging her reaction. A more thorough cat test will be undertaken before Nancy goes to a home with cats, however, which will include placing her in a foster home with kitties to see if shes ok sharing her home with them.

Homes with cats are free to visit and reserve Nancy now, and we will do the thorough foster home test before she goes to her new home.


**UPDATE 04/2010b**

Nancy has settled nicely in to the kennel routine now and her personality is starting to shine. She loves her food and her walks, though can be a bit lively when meeting other dogs while out on walks. A bit of training and socialisation will improve this behaviour. Nancy's new best friend is Ted, another fawn greyhound that has recently come to us. We think they make a great pair and both would do very well if homed together.


**UPDATE 05/2010a**

Nancy has now travelled across to Norfolk, UK, where she is now living in a foster home with a cat to see how she gets on. This is the final stage in her cat testing and if she settles in with no trouble she will be classed as suitable to live in a home with cats. Her progress will be updated shortly.






**UPDATE 05/2010b**

Nancy is settling well in her foster home now, and is housetrained. She is soaking up the home comforts and always wants to hog the sofa!



If you are interested in adopting Nancy, please email me on tamakin_84@yahoo.co.uk for our information pack and adoption questionnaire. Thanks!
