About Picasso

Meet Picasso! Born on January 16, 2022, this handsome Greyhound is as sweet as he is stunning. He quickly settled into his foster home, revealing more of his delightful personality each day. Picasso adores being around people and shows great manners, especially when it comes to food. He loves to hop up on the bed for some cuddle time, although he’s yet to embrace the couch fully. As he becomes more comfortable, Picasso’s playful nature is shining through. He enjoys zooming around the yard with his foster greyhound companion. We believe he would thrive in a home with another dog who shares his appreciation for play and activity. While car rides and leash walks are still a work in progress, he’s learning quickly and adapting well to new experiences. Picasso is smart and picking up on the rules of home living with ease. He does require some space during meal times, as he has shown food sensitivity when other dogs approach. With patience and support, Picasso is on his way to becoming the joyful, confident companion he’s destined to be. He’s eager to find a family willing to continue his journey of learning and love!
