About Lenny My Name Is… Lenny I Am… Lurcher I Am… 8 Months old Can I be rehomed with other dogs.. Under Assessment Can I be rehomed with cats… No Can I be rehomed with children… 10+ years I am looking for… A forever home MY HISTORY Lenny arrived to us via the council after he was found as a stray. He is now on the search for a forever home. ABOUT LENNY Hi, I’m Lenny! I am a young boy who has oodles of energy! I can be super bouncy and playful when I get excited! I will definitely need to learn some manners! I am very friendly and want to make friends with everyone! I travel well in the car. I will need some work on my lead walking as I can be pully, especially when other dogs are in sight as I get overstimulated quite quickly. I am a real foodie and will do anything for a treat! I will try to steal food off the sides if you leave it there! When I arrived, I wasn’t fully house trained but my foster home have done great work with me and I now know what to do. I would love to be able to sleep with you at night time and I will sleep close to you/on you when I am napping in the day! I am a cuddly boy. I would prefer a home where someone is aroud most of the time as I struggle being left. HEALTH I have no health issues. I am not on any medication. MY TEMPERAMENT WITH OTHER DOGS I get very over stimulated and boisterous around other dogs, I will need to learn to improve on this behaviour as not all dogs appreciate it! MY IDEAL FAMILY I would like an active family who are able to fulfil my physical exercise needs. AM I ELIGIBLE TO APPLY?
