Edith, oh Edith, where do I even begin? This girl is a true gem. She holds a special place in the hearts of everyone here at the kennels and it’s not hard to see why. Edith’s charm and unique personality have made her an unforgettable member of our little family.
Edith found a loving home after several special appeals, but sometimes life can take some unexpected turns. Edith faced some struggles, mostly due to confidence issues, and her previous owners made the difficult decision to return Edith to our care.
In the kennels, we have created a routine that suits Edith’s needs perfectly as routine is so important to her. We make sure she gets her food and goes on walks first, so she can relax for the rest of the day. She is thriving off this routine and her stress levels have reduced massively.
Edith has been working very hard to build her relationships with our regular volunteers and it is warming our hearts to see the trusting relationships she has managed to build.
She is unsure and can act quite fearful towards new people but with a gentle and patient approach, she will open her heart to you. Having her trust makes you feel so incredibly special.
Edith does kennel alone as she prefers her own space in the kennel environment. She will be perfectly content being the only greyhound in the home. However, if the right fit comes along, she could also flourish alongside another greyhound. A hound companion might just give her that extra boost of confidence, but she can also get this confidence from humans.
In Edith’s recent dog tests, she aced it. She was very polite and calm with the spaniels. She has come a long way since her first dog tests, and we have come to realise that these were not as successful due to her stress bucket overflowing. With continued positive socialisation in her forever home she will continue to build up her confidence with all situations.
Her ideal home would be a calm and peaceful environment. Busy households with young children will not be the best match for her, but adults and teenagers will make perfect companions for her.
Edith longs for a special family who appreciates her unique needs and can provide the love and support she deserves. We are patiently waiting for her perfect home to come along and make Edith's dreams of having a forever family come true.
Once you earn her trust and confidence you’ll see how truly beautiful her soul is. She’s kind, loyal and a best friend for life. Whenever you feel stressed she will instantly calm you down she has such a lovely presence about her.
She is the most special girl who deserves nothing but happiness and kindness.
If you choose to open your home to Edith you will have our full support every step of the way. We will work closely with you to ensure a smooth transition and provide any training assistance you may need.
Her description word as special girl this is exactly what she is. She is so incredibly loved by me and all the other staff. We will continue to work with her for as long as she is in our care and spoil her like we do all our long-term residents.
We can’t wait for someone to fall madly in love with her and make her their forever companion.
