Pandora

My story

Please contact Greyhound Pets, Inc. Woodinville (info@greyhoundpetsinc.org) for more information about this pet.PandoraTag No: 7009Registered Name: NoneBreed: Greyhound MixDate of Birth:  Approx Jan 2021Color: FawnCat Trainable: NoDog Friendly: UnknownKid Friendly: UnknownWeight:  63 poundsLocation: Woodinville, WA (Kennel)Comments:  Pandora is a fun loving sighthound with a million watt smile and a personality to match.  A volunteer and staff favorite, Pandora is Pop-u-lar!  When you meet her you too will be won over by her relaxed, friendly charm and humorous antics.Pandora is a long legged blonde with a mysterious past.  All we know about her former life is she was rescued by our friends at Team Inch Sighthound Rescue from a South Korean dog shelter.  Pandora’s gene pool is a true sighthound party mix, comprised of 77% Greyhound, 14% Irish Wolfhound, 5% Borzoi, 2% Polish Greyhound, and 2% other stuff.  Pandora is about the same height of a larger greyhound but a bit fuzzier and very strong for her size.She absolutely loves all people and loves to play and frolic in our large grassy play yard (alone or with a human friend).  When she isn’t playing with people, she is a confident, low-key, and independent girl who will happily amuse herself by tossing toys up to pounce on!  After playtime she’s also glad just to chill by your side.No guarantees, but we think Pandora will make a great housemate. The GPI kennel attendants give Pandora an “A+” at keeping her kennel tidy and she hasn’t shown to be much of a barker.  Pandora is very bright, and is an eager pupil who likes to learn.As much as Pandora adores people,  she cannot live with cats or other small animals.  Nor is she really a fan of other dogs, particularly stranger dogs.  While Pandora is cordial to the other dogs at GPI and can tolerate walks with sighthounds or other dogs to whom she has been properly introduced, she is reactive to dogs who are strangers.  Pandora’s trainer has made huge strides in reducing/controlling her reactivity when she encounters strange dogs in the world outside of GPI. We think Pandora’s reactivity will continue to improve with her new family if they will commit to a regular desensitization practice.  Pandora’s adoption includes four one-hour private training sessions with her professional trainer who will show her new family how to handle and lessen her dog reactivity.Her family can be quiet or busy, and possibly have older, dog-savvy kids.   But because of her size and strength her family should have no little children.  Pandora’s home needs to be with an experienced dog owner in a quiet area with a large, fenced yard in which to play and lounge.  She is not suited for life where she will have chance encounters with strange dogs in close quarters.  Thus Pandora should not be in a densely populated situation like an apartment/condo/townhome, an urban area, or another closely packed area (e.g., farmers market, dog friendly pub, and pet store). That said, Pandora will be a great companion for hiking in lesser frequented areas, camping, and other unpopulated outdoor adventures. She loves walks and has nice leash manners when there are no stranger dogs nearby.
