About Ernest
Meet Ernest, a charming 4-year-old retired racing greyhound from Australia. With his distinctive roman nose and sleek fawn coat, Ernest is quite the handsome fellow. His calm demeanor is balanced by a wonderfully goofy, fun-loving side that brings joy to those around him. Incredibly people-oriented, Ernest thrives on affection and loves being close to his humans. He has excellent leash manners, enjoying leisurely walks while soaking up the sights. Although he gets along well with other greyhounds, his interactions with different breeds have been mixed; he would benefit from positive exposure to enhance his socialization skills with non-greyhounds. Ernest is playful and has taken a liking to splashing around in his kiddie pool, often having a great time with giant stuffed toys. While he might leap up to greet people enthusiastically, it’s always with a friendly spirit. He would flourish in a moderately active home that can offer regular routine, enrichment, and plenty of love. Set Ernest up with the right guidance, and he’ll blossom into a loyal and affectionate companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
