Olympus here, ready for all your Greek god needs. Ok, so here’s the thing. *glances around nervously* greyhounds aren’t usually known for their smarts. Big hearts? Absowoofly! Big butts? Yes! Big brains? Eh, not so much. So, I am actually unique for a greyhound in that I am legit a genius. Like, I would have had that maths problem in Good Will Hunting solved before Matt Damon even made it to the chalkboard. Awesome right? A very very clever boi to make his pawrents proud? Yes! Buuuuuuut, being as smart as me does have a teeny tiny downside in that I do have the tendency to get a BIT BORED. And apparently bored hounds can “display some behaviour that humans may find sub-optimal”. That’s human speak for “might eat your house”. SO. What I need is a fairly smart, very tolerant, experienced and easily trained human who will give me a job! Need someone to help you cure cancer? How about a pal to work with you busting international crime syndicates?

I need to be part of a team with a human who knows how to work with dogs with high drive and a willingness to learn, who need to be busy and learning at all times! Let’s work together to learn some new skills and tricks, ok? Have you heard of noseworks? That and other sports are high on the list! And I’d really benefit from having a backyard to burn off some energy!

I’m not hugely into other dogs, however I’m making good progress with medium to large dogs. I’m still a work in progress myself, after all.

Oh, one more thing. Thunderstorms and big bangs are super scary and I will need my human to provide appropriate comfort and pref not be a truck driver. Tyvm.
