Jingle has just joined us and is currently being assessed, but he’s already showing what a lovely boy he is! This super cuddle monster has settled in beautifully and is enjoying foster home life.
He’s is house-trained, has mastered the stairs, and travels really well in the car. Jingle loves his outings — especially when they involve a trip to the pub and a few sausages!
He’s also been making friends of all shapes and sizes and is proving to be a friendly, happy hound who loves being part of the fun.
Follow us on Instagram or Facebook to see where to goes to when he starts his adventures.
Jingle has a European pet passport, which means he can be rehomed outside the UK. Potential adopters must be able to travel to us to meet and collect him, as we don’t transport or deliver dogs. We’re also happy to arrange a home check in your area prior to adoption.
In these early days, it’s your responsibility to keep Jingle safe by keeping his world small and calm. Take things slowly and gently build up to more exciting experiences – too much, too soon can be overwhelming and may make the adoption harder for him.
Please remember to stay calm and relaxed throughout this settling-in period. If you feel anxious or stressed, Jingle is likely to feel the same. Greyhounds are incredibly sensitive, emotional souls and are very good at picking up on our moods.
Jingle is currently living in a foster home, but before that he spent time in kennels, so some everyday household sights and sounds may still feel new, confusing or a little worrying for him. He will need gentle introductions to things like hoovers, TVs and busy home life, along with plenty of reassurance as he learns that he is safe. With time, patience and understanding, Jingle will blossom into a wonderful companion, ready to share life’s adventures with you.
Before applying to adopt, please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the 3-3-3 rule. This is some of the best advice available to help a new dog settle successfully into their new home.
3 days – In the first three days, your dog may feel scared, anxious or overwhelmed. He may also test boundaries as he tries to understand his new environment.
3 weeks – After around three weeks, he should start to feel more settled and become familiar with his routine. This is often when his personality begins to shine through.
3 months – By three months, your new dog will truly understand that this is his home. He will feel relaxed, secure and trusting, and much more like himself.
