Tia (glenski Lisa) will be 8 in August. She was homed by Daybreaks in March 2007.
Unfortunately her owners are no longer able to keep her due to personal circumstances. She is currently with Mido who is a lurcher, who the family owned prior to adopting Tia. Tia helped Mido overcome separation anxiety and therefore we are anxious not to separate them. As Daybreaks is only a rehoming centre for greyhounds, we are unable to take Mido in with Tia, however their current owners are happy to keep them until we can find them both a home.
Tia's owner says "As you can see she is no problem with cats and has never shown them any aggression. She is fine with all types of dog, she does love to announce herself as she runs up to them but we've never had any problems. She will chase squirrels and rabbits but other than that she is great off lead and has great recall. She is fit and healthy and has no problems with children at all, shes done the school run many times. She doesnt like loud bangs and is terrified around bonfire night so we dont walk her at night then.
Mido is a foxhound/greyhound lurcher and is approx 5 years old. He too is no problem with cats and great with all other dogs. He loves children and we have never had any issues with aggression at all. His problems are seperation anxiety, he cant be left alone AT ALL or he WILL CHEW lots and lots though hand on heart since the day we got Tia he's not chewed anything. If he gets out, say he rushes past the children and off out of the door then he gets very frightened, he's obviously been mistreated for running off when he was younger, he's much better now though and a quick game of sticky on the green at the end of the road (3-4 mins) is all it takes to regain his confidence and he's happy to sit to have his lead on and walk back home. He loves women but takes his time to bond with men.
At the moment they are being left for 7 hours a day and this is likely to increase in the future so we need to do whats best for the dogs.
