Support and Health

How much training will I need?

Needs ongoing support

Can I be left alone?

No

Bodie does love his people so much, especially the ladies, and forms very strong attachments, so is looking for a new home where he will have someone around to keep him company and build up any time on his own very gradually.

Do I have any medical conditions?

None

This pet has a clean bill of health and can be fully insured after rehoming. 

Who I can live with

Can I live with dogs?

No

Can I live with cats?

No

Can I live with small pets?

No

Additional information

Bodie does like other dogs, however sometimes a bit too much and this can lead to him barking at times on walks which we are doing training for and he is doing well with! We feel it is likely due to frustration behaviour and we can show you the training we have been doing when you come to meet him.

We feel that at present, he would be best as an only dog in his new home, where new owners can work on his training around other dogs. We recommend walking Bodie on a muzzle due to his chase drive and some of his dog-dog behaviours.

Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Bodie is a friendly boy who loves people and making friends, but has shown that he doesn’t like being disturbed whilst resting and is unsure around children. Due to this, he will need to go to a home with adults only.

 

 

What type of environment would suit me?

Bodie needs a home with a fully secure garden with 6 foot fencing as he is a nosey boy and likes to jump up at the fencing to see what’s going on all around him. He also would love somewhere he can do those lurcher zoomies as cannot go off lead in public.

About Bodie

Bodie is a very gentle and affectionate soul. he loves having a good play and zoom about in a typical lurcher fashion before crashing out in his comfiest spot. He enjoys his walks and saying hello to as many people as possible (although we are teaching him that not everyone loves dogs the same way he loves people!). Bodie is ready to find his forever family in people who are looking for their new best friend!

Goofy, elegant and strong contenders for the best snoozers, there are many sides to the lovely Lurcher! Learn more about the breed at Ask Woodgreen.
