GRINGO

Gringo is a brindle lurcher boy who was dumped at our kennels THREE years ago by a man who said that he had "grown too big for their apartment". Poor Gringo has languished here ever since and has never even had a second glance from people coming to view dogs. Gringo has lovely brindle markings and unique eyes in that one is pale brown and the other very dark brown . Poor Gringo hates kennel life and does not deal with it very well at all. There is nothing more that we (and he!!) would like then to find this boy his forever home. Gringo has had some basic training and sits, stays etc on command. His recall is also pretty good. Gringo gets along fine with the ladies but would prefer to be the only male dog in the home. Poor Gringo's tail has been docked.
Gringo is thought to be just under 4 years old and he is 56cm tall at the shoulder. He is neutered, blood tested for Mediterranean diseases, microchipped and vaccinated.

Can travel to the UK in March 09

Of 12 dogs that have been prepared for travel to the UK poor Gringo is the only one with no place to go This lovely boy is desperately unhappy in the kennels and would so dearly love a home of his own either as an only dog or with a girlfriend or two Gringo gets along with most other males, especially so when out and about and is fine with the girls. If anybody has a space for this boy either as a foster home or a permanent home his paperwork is all set for him to arrive in the UK on 11th March.
