Forever Hounds Trust is so keen to find a home for a handsome greyhound currently being looked after near Matlock, Derbyshire that we have given his story a musical twist!
For the last few months Oliver, a five-year-old ex-racing greyhound, has been living with his foster mum and a nine-year-old greyhound foster sister. His foster mum has created a musical plea with a twist for the handsome dog, in the hope it will help him find his forever home…..
When Oliver moved in he was a very frightened boy, anxious in new situations and around new people. But, in no time at all he has overcome his fears, with ‘Food, wonderful food, glorious fooooooood’ (and a clicker); made new friends (hound and human); and is learning that ‘It’s a fine, fine life!’
But, Oliver wants more!
‘MORE???’
‘Please, sir, I want some more!’
It’s clear that Oliver is ready for his forever home: a quiet space, without children, but with one or two canine companions who will join in a game or two and keep him company. Oliver needs someone who isn’t out all day long. ‘So long, fare the well, pip pip cheerio’. He will be just fine for a while, but he’ll want you to ‘Be back soon’!
This orphan boy requires a gentle benefactor, one who will continue with his training and help him transition into the playful, comical lad he’s promising to be. He just wants to hear someone sing: ‘Consider yourself at home. Consider yourself one of the family. We’ve taken to you so strong. It’s clear, we’re going to get along’!
If you can help by offering Oliver or another dog a home, please get in touch with Forever Hounds Trust on 03000 111 100 or email enquiries@foreverhoundstrust.org.
