[singlepic id=10372 w=320 h=240 float=left]Meeka, who is probably a whippet x greyhound, came into branch care via one of the RSPCA’s inspectors in September and is now approximately 9 months old.

She was initially seriously underweight and is still quite slim, as can be seen from her photos (from the day she came into our care at the foot of her photos in the tiled area to her photos taken in her foster home’s garden at the top).  She is coming out of her shell and beginning to behave like a puppy, getting cheeky, playing with her foster brother’s toys and starting to greet people she has met a few times when walking out with a cautious wag of her tail.

Meeka is living with another dog who is very laid back and they are now getting along really well, so we think she will be happy to share her new family with another dog.  She is also doing well on her lead walking and getting more confident with new experiences, although she is quite nervous with strangers, she is good with other dogs she meets on her walks.

A home with sight hound experience would be ideal, and one where she will be given time to become the loving, beautiful companion she is meant to be.

One thing to note is that she survived the firework season by lying flat out on her side and snoozing the evenings around the 5th away, listening to the TV with the sound up more than usual.  Although, her foster home isn’t in the middle of a town, it is in a valley so loud noises do echo from hill to hill.

She will need a secure garden and home so we are looking for a family home without very young children who may leave a door open unintentionally or be too much for her at the moment.

Meeka is looking for a cat free home with no small furries.
