Graham is a professional tail-wagger and all-round good boy!
Graham has arrived at the Rescue from the pound and is now ready to find his forever family.
When Graham arrived, his tail had seen better days. Thanks to his extremely enthusiastic wagging (this boy is HAPPY), he had several wounds that just would not heal. So, along with being castrated, part of his tail was amputated. Graham took it all in his stride, is feeling much more comfortable and now wagging happily as ever!
Graham is a medium-sized boy, weighing around 25kg, with a big heart to match.
He is a sweet, affectionate and playful boy who knows his basic commands and is very food and toy motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding. He loves spending time with people and will happily soak up all the attention you will give him.
Graham enjoys his walks and will need an active home to keep him fulfilled. He currently wears a head collar, which has made a huge difference with his pulling and he has done really well with it.
Being a lurcher, Graham does have that classic urge to chase, so he will need a confident handler who can manage him sensibly. Thankfully, he is much easier to handle when wearing his head collar.
Graham is dog reactive out on walks and will need to wear a muzzle out and about, because of this, we are looking for a family who are happy to continue his training and help him become the best boy he can be.
Graham’s must-knows:
- No cats or small furries
- Graham would be happiest as an only dog
- Travels well in the car
- Can be left for sensible periods once settled
- Needs a very secure garden
Graham is a joyful, loving boy who is ready to swap kennel life for sofa cuddles and adventures with his very own family.
