Woodinville (info@greyhoundpetsinc.org) for more information about this pet.PattyTag No: 7037Registered Name: NoneBreed: Whippet MixDate of Birth: October 30, 2022Color: RedCat Trainable: NoDog Friendly: Yes - See commentsKid Friendly: See commentsWeight: 40 poundsLocation: Foster homeComments: Patty is all about the joy in life. She is happy, friendly and outgoing, and very much still a puppy. She is a big cuddler! Patty will need an active home and one that can give her some guidance in life. She is eager to learn and please, and learns quickly. She is a fun, happy girl who loves to play! Patty plays rough so if she is in a home with another dog the other dog needs to be able to keep up with her. Patty loves going on walks and adventures. Patty is strong for her size and will jump when excited. She loves people - big and small, but if she is around kids they need to be the resilient type that won't be upset about being knocked into/over. December 2024: Patty has moved to a foster home. Her foster home reports that she is doing well and is such a happy girl! She is housetrained and is settling into a routine. She's very playful out in the yard and her foster dad's two greyhounds are happy to oblige, but I do need to separate her and one of the greyhounds at times as he can be a little rough with Patty (not that she minds) when he gets fired up. Patty's foster dad crates Patty when he leaves the house. Behavior wise, if she gets bored she starts looking for things to get into. She's very curious and will find things to chew on or tear up. Her foster dad has been able to redirect her with an appropriate chew toy. She listens if he tells her to leave something alone, but that doesn't stop her from trying again later. Giving Patty an extra run in the yard, when she starts looking for something to do, settles her down for a while afterwards. If you can tire Patty out a little, she does well and settles down for a nap while her foster dad works at his desk. Patty does well on leash, is eating well, sleeps through the night, and is a big snuggler. Stairs are no problem and her foster dad is teaching her the dog door. She jumps in and out of the car well now, and settles right down in back during rides. She would be happiest with a yard to run around in, or at least some very active people who could take her on several long walks every day. We don't know how she'd do as an only dog, but probably fine as long as she has people and toys to play with, and she gets enough exercise. Patty was a past Dog of the Month!!
