Francis

Description

Successfully rehomed by Blue Cross - Thirsk

Francis is a young pretty rough coated Lurcher. She has a lovely temperament but for some reason is always over looked in kennels.

Francis loves to play, loves affectionate and loves to please. She is looking for a family that will give her all the time and attention she deserves. She is lovely with children and will play games of frisbee with them.

Francis is good with other dogs on walks but can get a bit frustrated on the lead when she can't go over and say hello. Some further training will help with this and will advise new owners on how to go about this.

She will need to be an only pet although we would consider one for her with a playful male dog providing they were fed seperately at meal times as she will guard food from other dogs.

This lovely dog will make a super pet and you won't be disappointed if you come to meet her.
