Spotlight on Darwin

Darwin

Hi! I’m Darwin!

I am a 2.5 year old male greyhound and I am looking for a forever home.

I am a very sweet and endearing boy. That’s what my foster mama says so it must be true, right? I love to play, and will sometimes make up my own games when I am by myself. I love my stuffies, and will frequently take them outside then bury them when I am done playing. I rarely bark and don’t counter surf.

I do struggle with separation anxiety. Being alone is very scary! But my wonderful foster family has been working with me, and I am now okay when they are gone for 7 to 8 hours and hope to be up to 9 hours soon. I continue to improve everyday, and I try very hard to be a Good Boy.

I would definitely be best in a home where someone can continue to work on my separation anxiety training. And I would be best without cats. I’d do okay with other dogs, but they would need to be the right sort of personality. (I can get a bit rough when I am playing, and I don’t always like other dogs coming up to me when I am laying down.)

I have come a really long way, and with the right forever family I will continue to get better and better.

Does your family’s evolution include a Darwin?!

 

Seeing New Greyhounds Entering Retirement

Many times, people ask how Colorado Greyhound Adoption gets many of the greyhounds available for adoption. Here is a short video that provides a behind-the-scenes look at how greyhounds are brought into our program:

Thanks to Dan Frank from 5280 ProVideo for shooting and producing this video, and our many volunteers that work together to help retired racing greyhounds find their forever homes!
