About Jake

Meet lovely Jake the ex-racing Greyhound! Jake is a retired athlete. He has left the racing scene far behind and is looking for a soft cosy bed to rest his legs on. He will happily spend large chunks of the day chilling on the sofa (often upside-down). Jake is a calm dog who enjoys getting out for walks, and happy to potter around and relax. Jake is an affectionate, gentle natured soul who has been friendly with everyone he has met on site. Due to his gentle nature, Jake could live with children and perfect for someone looking for an easy going dog. Jake can often be seen playing with toys on his own and running after a tennis ball. As an ex-racer, Jake can find the small fluffies quite interesting so will need to be kept on lead when out on walks with his muzzle on. Due to this, he will need a garden space where he can have his off lead time for his daily brief zoomies. Also because of this, Jake cannot live with cats or small animals. Jake has been kennelled with a greyhound friend before without issue and has been friendly with all the dogs he's met out on site. As such, he could live with a steady similar sized dog / greyhound who he can snuggle up with. Inside every Greyhound is a couch potato looking for a soft spot to sleep upside down on. Jake is no exception to this rule and is ready to find his new home and hopefully a super special soft sofa dedicated just for him. He will make a wonderful affectionate companion!
