Tutty

Tutty is a gorgeous boy who gets adoration from everyone he meets with his people-loving nature. He is a young hound who celebrated his 3rd birthday in August.

Whether he’s at home or out and about, Tutty has a zest for life and enjoys being part of whatever is going on. This lovely boy has been exploring his foster-town: he’s seen seagulls, pints, plenty of people and loves to have a nose at whatever is going on.  He also loves his rest, sleeping and generally lazy around the house doing nothing.

Tutty is torn between his two loves: walks and toys!! He is curious, and loves adventures (or among his adoring public), is excited to get some good sniffs in and enjoys his new world. Tutty is keen for his walks and  would love to be adopted by someone likes to be out exploring as much as he does!

At home, one of the sweetest things Tutty does is collect his toys and take them back to bed to snuggle. He adores a cuddle, whether with his stuffed animals or the people he loves! His foster family says he is content to lie on his bed surrounded by his teddies until walk times.

When it comes to food, Tutty is very polite: he takes his treats gently and is well-mannered around human mealtimes. He has been learning some basic commands and is picking up training quickly.

Tutty is a lovely hound with lots to offer, and and we can’t wait to see him find the loving home he deserves.  Please remember Tutty is a young dog – and as we say, with a zest for life – please only consider adopting him if you want a happy dog and if you are prepared to give him time to settle into your routine ( as opposed to saying you will and then giving up on him).  He is still laid back and lazy – he is just more fun than an older rescued greyhound.

Tutty has only spent time in kennels, so some everyday household sights and sounds may still feel new, confusing or a little worrying for him. He’ll need gentle introductions to things like hoovers, TVs and busy home life, along with plenty of reassurance as he learns that he’s safe. With time, patience and understanding, Tutty will blossom into a wonderful companion, ready to share life’s adventures with you.

In the early days of adoption, it’s your responsibility to keep him 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, then your new dog is likely to feel the same. Greyhounds are sensitive, emotional souls and are very good at picking up on our moods.

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’ll feel relaxed, secure and trusting, and much more like himself.
