Greyhound and Lurcher Rescue in the UK

Dog of the Week

Paddy

Age: 14 years | Dog | Lurcher

Rescue: Battersea Dogs and Cats Home

Paddy is our very handsome Lurcher - likely Border Collie cross Greyhound. This lovely older gentleman is looking for new owners that are kind and sympathetic and can support him through his retirement years. His new owners ideally need to have owned dogs before and understand the commitment that an older dog requires. Paddy is a loving and friendly boy and likes a fuss. He has done well in a foster home and has settled on his own for two hours. Paddy needs his new home to be in a rural or very quiet location and it is essential he has access to his own private and secure garden. We very much feel that at this stage of his life Paddy does not need to be walked and will be perfectly happy with a house and nice garden set up. Paddy will need regular access to the garden to help with his House Training, although he has done very well with this on foster, he will need continued support and patience. His potential new owner will also need to have a chat with our vet. If you think you can offer Paddy the retirement home he is looking for then please do contact us at bbh.rehomers@battersea.org.uk
