Lizzie is an eight-year-old Saluki cross who is as graceful as she is gentle.
She is looking for a calm and loving home with children aged 16 and over. Lizzie would prefer to be the only pet and would love to have her own garden where she can run and play freely.
This is a sweet, affectionate dog who enjoys cuddling with her family but also appreciates having her own space at times. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but she quickly warms up if you offer her a tasty treat or a squeaky toy – two of her favourite things.
Lizzie is happiest in peaceful surroundings, so she needs an owner who can walk her in quiet areas where she won’t encounter many other dogs. She’s accustomed to walking on a lead and wearing a muzzle, and she’s a joy to walk. Lizzie’s playful side shines through when she chases after her toys or does zoomies around the garden.
This wee dog is also good at traveling in a car and would love to join her new owner on gentle adventures. However, she is not used to being left alone and would be happiest in a home where someone is around for most of the day to keep her company. Her new family should be ready to gradually build up her time alone to help her adjust comfortably.
Lizzie has an endearing, goofy personality and will bring so much joy and love into the right home. If you can offer her patience, companionship, and lots of playtime, Lizzie may just be the perfect fit for your family!
