A little bit about Quinney

Introducing a goofy, gangly girl ready to zoom into your life and make you laugh, it's Quinney!!

Quinney was surrendered to the shelter by her previous owners who unfortunately could no longer care for her. This means that she is searching for a second chance at forever with a new family who can provide a safe and loving home for this sweetheart.

Quinney is an ex-racing greyhound which means she may have some quirks that her adopters should keep in mind. Racing greyhounds are at risk of having predatory aggression towards small dogs and animals due to the way that they are forced to train. This just means Quinney's adopters should avoid taking her to off-leash dog parks and practice caution while walking her around other dogs until you understand her behaviour better - as all greyhounds are different and have their own unique personalities and experiences!

Quinney is a super-friendly girl who absolutely ADORES her human friends. She would love to go into a home with secondary school-aged children and above (12+) where she will receive lots of loving but will also have a family who respects her space and boundaries. Quinney may be suitable to live with another well-matched dog, pending a successful meet and greet here at the shelter. Other greyhounds or dogs of a similar size to Quinney would likely be best suited.

While Quinney might enjoy having a backyard, greyhounds are perfect if you live in an apartment or a smaller space as they have short bursts of high energy but like to spend the rest of their day snoozin' on the couch. Greyhounds are perfect for city life here in Melbourne!

Quinney truly is the sweetest girl with a big smile (as you can see in her pictures!) and she deserves to go to a great home. If you think that Quinney sounds like a match made in heaven, please come down to the shelter to meet her today!

Quinney <3

*Please ensure all resident dogs and children are present for the meet and greet.*
