Meet Snickers, a playful and affectionate greyhound who loves toys, especially his squeaky ball. After a good play session, he settles down for a rest. Snickers is the 7-year- old’s favorite greyhound and enjoys spending time with kids (ages 7, 9, and 11), whether it’s walking in the yard or town, bathing, feeding, or playing. He’s been socialized inside the house, watching TV in the backroom with the kids, and loves being hosed down by them. Snickers is great with other greyhounds and gets along well with large and medium-sized dogs. He’s been introduced to a pet Blue Heeler puppy who is more on the medium side but hasn’t met any small fluffy dogs. He went in for a bite with Metacat so is best suited to a home without any small fluffies. Snickers is crate trained, happy to lie down in the van, car, or trailer, and fine on his own. He’s a relaxed, friendly dog who would make a wonderful addition to any family!
