About Fred and Sal
Sal and Fred have been an item for over four years and love each other.
Unfortunately, their family is no longer able to look after them and they are now seeking a new home. Together!
Sal is a 7 year old black female greyhound (DOB Feb 10, 2015) who loves belly rubs, sitting on your lap and zoomies after dinner. She loves her food and is easy to teach new tricks using positive reinforcement training.
Sal used to be very anxious when she first arrived but Fred and his calming presence mean that she is now happy to do her own thing and happily snooze the day away if you need to go out.
Sal is very good with people and also kids. She is a quiet girl who never barks or makes much noise.
Her ears are velvety soft and she just loves it when you rub them gently. She is not cat friendly.
Her microchip number is 956000004444171.
Fred is a 8 year old brindle boy (DOB May 8, 2015) who loves his couch. He also loves belly rubs and just chill all day at home.
He also loves his food and takes well to positive reinforcement training. Fred can be reactive on leash when out on walks and is not cat friendly.
Fred is quite sensitive and very much in tune with his human's emotions. His tail wags nonstop and is quite whippy. He is a playful boy too who loves to show this silly side.
His microchip number is 965000003047880.
Both Sal and Fred love walks on the beach and the park.
Medical notes
Sal is on Stilboestrol, a medication for spay incontinence.
Fred is taking Lovan, an anti- anxiety medication
