Duchess

Our stunning Duchess is now ready to search for her new home.
 
Duchess is a 2 year old Saluki x girl and is currently on foster here with us in the kennels house.
 
This girl is an absolute delight for a young lurcher.
 
Duchess was rehomed but sadly returned as she displayed completely different behaviour with them than here with ourselves.
 
Duchess gets on with all dogs big and small and is currently on foster with 6 females and 1 male. She actually gets bullied at times by my own 5kg Dachshund cross female and at that point in time she will stand up for herself but only with a growl.
 
Duchess loves to play so she needs a dog that’s willing to have a game with her. We find it only lasts a few minutes at a time then she settles on the sofa or nearest dog bed happily.
 
Ideally a playful companion male or a mixed pack with kind females. She can be typically lurcher vocal during playtime and is a little unaware of her size but her play style in the main is not overly boisterous.
 
One of the issues in the other home was that it was stated Duchess could not be left at all not during the day or overnight. We took the liberty here based on that information to crate train her and she took to it with no issues. She now sleeps in the crate happily over night without a peep and during the day she is crated when we are busy out and about with the kennels dogs.
 
She will be absolutely fine in a home with someone home a lot of the time or with part time workers. Her new home must be willing to use the crate especially for the first few months to continue reinforcing her safe space which she needs and giving her down time.
 
Duchess is spotlessly clean in both the home and whilst crated. We had 2 accidents when she first returned but non since. She also travels well in the care.
 
Out and about on walks Duchess walks well. We’ve had no issues but the home reported some reactivity that we feel was most likely frustrated greeting as she loves all humans and dogs and just wants to say hello to everyone and everything. 
 
Duchess is NOT cat or small furry friendly but can live with dog savvy children 6 years and upwards.
 
Duchess is vaccinated, kc vaccinated, de flead, de wormed, microchipped and spayed.
 
Duchess is currently in Stoke-on-Trent Staffordshire and anyone wanting to apply to offer her a home must be willing to travel to meet with her.
