Meet Trigger: Your Beautiful Brindle Boy!

Trigger is a stunning 4-year-old dark brindle boy who is ready to find his forever home.

Trigger walks well on the lead and is happy around the other greyhounds at the kennels. He's happy to jump in and out of the car and settles quickly. He can be shy around new people and children, but once he gets to know you he's a little snuggle monster!

Trigger loves his food, but can love it a bit too much - he has been known to occasionally resource guard his food when eating. We would advise potential owners to leave him alone while eating and not to remove treats etc. until he's moved away and finished with them. Because he can be unnerved around small children and new noises, we would recommend he finds his forever home in a quieter household or with older, teenage children.

Could you be his perfect companion?

  • Sex: Male

  • Colour: Dark Brindle

  • Child friendly: Yes

  • Vaccinated: Yes

  • Gets on with other dogs: Yes

  • Pet friendly: Yes, he was initially curious about budgies, but then ignored them.

  • Personality: Shy at first, but becomes a snuggle monster. Happy to greet strangers outside and lean in if they were stroking him.

  • Ideal home: A quieter household with no small children.

What our Volunteers say:.

I had a trigger for the journey there. For the first half an hour, he didn't want to jump in the car so I had to lift him in. Once in, he settled quickly and lay down, but stood up every time I stopped at traffic lights. He was excellent around all other breeds, even with the inquisitive guide dog puppy who got right up in his face. He was quite happy with other dogs sniffing him and met most with a waggy tail. He didn't bat an eye at the goats—completely disinterested in them. He was really happy around people of all ages, often going up for cuddles and a lean.

Trigger was a pleasure to walk. He needed a hand getting into the car but soon settled. He was calm and quiet while travelling and fell asleep post-walk.

He was polite with all dogs and when meeting/greeting others. There was no reactivity at all to any dogs on the walk. He wasn't interested in ducks and geese, etc.

Trigger enjoyed being fussed by people (female & male), leaning on them, and he particularly loves ear scratches. There was no nervousness towards strangers on the walk.

His favourite activity is sniffing! He loved walking through grass and bushes, sniffing and leaving his scent. He can be strong and pull on the lead once he finds a scent, so that's something to bear in mind.

Fingers crossed for his forever home very soon!

I managed to get his front legs in the car via the back door, but then he needed a boost. I was advised that throwing a treat in would help.

Exiting the car was no problem.

He spends time both standing up and lying down in the car and seems to enjoy watching out of the window.

Trigger was a joy on the walk. He wasn't phased by any dogs, even if they ran, barked, or growled. He likes a good sniff and introduced himself to all the other dogs on the walk. He loves people and will approach anybody who is up for it to get a fuss and let him lean on them. He made a big impression on a lot of people.

When we broke up the party and headed to the car, Trigger was looking round as if he wondered where all his mates were. He enjoyed being part of a pack.

A thoroughly enjoyable morning for both me and Trigger ("The People's Friend").
