Date of Birth: 8 August 2018
Sex: Male
Colour: Blue
Location: Rockhampton
Behavioural quirk: Sleep Startle – This means he can react if woken suddenly from a deep sleep. It’s not aggression, just a natural reflex some greyhounds have when they’re startled awake. To keep him comfy and happy, it’s best to let him wake up on his own (no surprise cuddles!). Just call his name gently from a distance and give him his own safe snooze spot. Easy!
Rigo says YES to:
✔ Hanging out with other greyhounds
✔ Grown Ups
✔ Soft beds, sniffaris, and treat time
Rigo says NO to:
✘ Cats
✘ Small dogs
✘ Hound slumber parties
✘ Kids

Three years ago, Rigo strutted out of Love A Greyhound into what he thought was his forever home. But through no fault of his own, life threw his humans a curveball and now this big, blue-hearted boy is back on the lookout for a new family who truly gets him.

He gets along well with other greyhounds, as long as everyone agrees on one simple rule: Only for walks and playtime. As Rigo shows food aggression and experiences sleep startle.

Rigo thrives in open spaces where he can zoom to his heart’s content, go on sniffaris, learn new tricks (especially if treats are involved), and silently judge you from the couch like a feline overlord.

If you’re someone who appreciates a dog with depth, personality, and just the right amount of drama, Rigo could be the perfect match.

It’s time for this blue beauty to have his true second chance and it could start with you.
