Zorro Has Been Homed

 

Zorro has been homed – 19.12.20.

Zorro is in foster care near Fleet, Hampshire, he arrived with us on the 20th October 2020 and he was born on 7th April 2017.

This lad is nearly house trained and is quiet through the night until you get up in the morning, when he greets you with a big happy tail!  He is currently living with six other greyhounds, out of this, one is a female, he is not a dominant male so gets on well with other castrated males too.

He can be nervous around new people but this only lasts a few minutes before his waggy tail appears and he is lapping up the attention and cuddles!  Zorro has made some good friends with the kennel hands that he sees daily, once he trusts you, a loving boy comes out of his shell.  He gives good cuddles too!

Zorro was kenneled on his own, before moving into foster care and is quiet once he can’t hear human voices, he does however enjoy a little sing along when he welcomes you back with a lovely smile and waggy tail!  This lad would benefit from having another dog in the house or a human companion who will only be leaving him for short periods of time.

He loves his outings, travels well and is always very keen to get into the car, unaided. This boy can walk nicely on a lead and enjoys going out for his walks.

Zorro has shown he can be sociable with other breeds, if correct socialisation is carried out.  He is a little bit unsure of what smaller dogs are currently and shows this by backing away from them.  We will support his new owners with training methods in order to benefit Zorro.

He enjoys being outside, either going out for walks or just stretching his legs in an enclosed area.  There is a lot for Zorro to learn about the outside world, with time and a confident owner he will learn and his true character will start to shine.  Zorro will not show his true colours in a viewing, he needs to learn to trust his human friends, before he becomes more confident around them.  Poor Zorro might be overlooked because of this, he would love to have a viewing and a home, just like his other friends.

Zorro enjoys a good game of chase with his soft toys but if a big toy is thrown or a football is kicked, he is unsure what to do.

Zorro has passed his cat test, with consistent training from his new owner, in time he will learn to live safely with a cat being his best friend!
