pandora, athletic & fun!

If your dream dog is whip-smart, diligent, loyal, athletic, playful, and affectionate, six year old Rey may just be the One! She is a brainy, brawny, and bubbly brindle beauty who loves to learn and works extra hard to please.
Beautiful Rey is a six-year old female greyhound mix rescued from South Korea. She has a the cool- striped brindle coat, an alert expression, and plenty of energy. Friendly, outgoing and literally a “hugger”, Rey loves all humans, though she might love men even a little extra! This girl is surprisingly strong and could probably pull a 747 without breaking a sweat.
The best home for Rey will be one which gives her space to exercise, ideally in her own yard, and lots of mental and physical activity. Like most extra smart canines regardless of species, Rey needs to be kept mentally stimulated to avoid slipping into mischief. Rey’s ideal family will keep her intellectually engaged with learning new things, going to interesting places, and sharing their life’s adventures with her. Flyball, agility, doggie sports or service work would be great ways to keep her mind challenged.
While it isn’t a must for her to live with people who are home all the time, Rey would love if her people were around her a lot. Rey loves going on car rides -short or long- because she knows they take her to new places and reveal interesting things!
One of Rey’s favorite things is to tear a stuffed toy apart from limb to limb; when she finally locates the squeaker she is in bliss. Because most humans don’t approve of toy destruction, Rey has had many toys taken away from her. As a result, when it comes to her toys she has learned not to trust most people, because so many people have “stolen” so many toys before she could destroy them properly! This is why Rey must go to a home without kids.
Rey just doesn’t trust people with her valuables (like toys) until she really knows them first. Once she does trust you though she can be convinced to relax her toy vigilance with savvy handling. This girl’s trust can be earned with just lots of treats, play, and cuddles or belly rubs. GPI’s trainer will teach Rey’s new family methods for interacting with Rey and her toys in four free one-on-one training sessions, and offer priority paid sessions thereafter as needed. She must be the only dog in the household as she wants to protect “her” people and space, as well as food and toys, from other dogs. Apart from this, Rey is very tolerant of other dogs, even in close proximity. But she doesn’t seem at all interested in making dog friends. She absolutely can never live with cats or other small animals.
Rey is good on a leash, non-reactive when passing other dogs, and will make a wonderful- albeit really strong -walking companion. Rey is spayed, vaccinated and micro-chipped. With a savvy handler, she is well behaved in most public places, though places like pet supply stores where she can easily snag a toy she considers valuable should be avoided.
This is how the person who best knows Rey sums her up: “If you look up love and loyalty in the dictionary you will see Rey’s picture. All this girl wants is to work for the one she loves. Her love is easy to earn. Rey craves mental and physical enrichment, trust, and affection. A little play, show her you're a giver not a taker, and some belly rubs is all it would take for this extraordinary girl to give her whole self to you.” To meet Rey in Woodinville at Greyhound Pets Inc, contact Moira at fastpaws1998@gmail.com.
