ABBEY Greyhound & Terrier Mix Linden, NJ

Abbey is a gorgeous 7 year-old greyhound mix who came into her home at 5 months of age. She was raised with many dogs around, but as she’s matured her desire to have other dogs around has diminished. We are trying to find Abbey a home where she will get undivided attention and have her humans to herself. She is a bit aloof when meeting new people but as long as people let her get to know them on her terms she settles in nicely. She’s extremely loving with her people, enjoys snuggling and gives gentle kisses often, but doesn’t do well with active or small children. She walks extremely well on a leash, and while she gets slightly reactive when she sees other dogs during walks, she can easily be re-directed with treats and praise. Abbey is an independent player, and if given a rope-toy or a bone she’ll play all by herself for quite some time… for some reason she plays best with these items if a person she enjoys is watching her. She loves to run, and is extremely fast, so a fenced-in yard is necessary. Being a greyhound mix, she shouldn’t be with any small animals (namely cats, rodents, etc.). She’s very vocal, and makes strange howling sounds, but when she’s relaxed she doesn’t make a peep. She does love her crate, and will settle into it nicely. Abbey is totally vetted and ready and waiting for a single pup home.
