Greyhound Dogs Available for Adoption in Tarpon Springs, Florida

Meet Tippy, a lovely Australian boy, born November 12, 2023.

Tippy is a fun-loving, confident young boy with a friendly personality and a playful spark. With his affectionate nature and happy outlook, he’s ready to bring energy and
companionship into his forever home.

He greets people with enthusiasm and is quick to engage—coming when called, enjoying pats, and showing relaxed, friendly body language with a soft wagging tail.

Tippy is very people-oriented and thrives on interaction. On lead, Tippy can be a little excitable at first and may pull due to his strength, but he settles nicely after a few minutes and walks calmly by your side. With consistency and routine, he will continue to improve and make a great walking companion.

In new environments, Tippy shows confidence and curiosity. He enjoys having a run to burn off energy, loves exploring, and has a playful side—especially when it comes to squeaky toys. After some activity, he’s happy to relax and lie down, showing a good ability to switch off.

Tippy travels well, settling calmly in both the car and trailer.
He has shown no signs of resource guarding and is relaxed around food and people.

With other dogs, Tippy is generally social and has been comfortable around other greyhounds as well as breeds like Schnauzers and Golden Retrievers. He appears to prefer female dogs and would likely do best with a compatible, calm companion if livingwith another dog.

Tippy has been assessed around small dogs and showed no reaction when passing by, indicating promising manners in these situations.

Tippy would thrive in a home that can provide a balance of activity, structure, and affection. With a bit of guidance early on, he will develop into a loyal, loving companion who brings both fun and companionship to everyday life.
