Queen

About Queen

Dearest gentle reader, Allow me to introduce myself. I am Queen. Yes, you are in the presence of royalty. Do try to contain your excitement. I'm a petite, five-year-old black beauty with the most adorable ears you'll ever see. I'm affectionate, a little goofy and, admittedly, something of a shy girl when meeting new people or exploring unfamiliar surroundings. But give me a little time to settle in and my playful, silly side will soon make an appearance. Sadly, my early chapters haven't been quite so enchanting. I've been moved around quite a bit (through no fault of my own), which has left me feeling a little unsure of the world and the people in it. But since arriving safely at Greyhound Rescue, I've been discovering that life can be rather lovely after all. With patience, kindness and consistency, my confidence is growing and my sweet personality is beginning to shine. What I'm dreaming of now is a home where I can finally put down roots. I'll need a family who understands that trust takes time and is happy to let me find my feet at my own pace. In return, you'll get to watch me blossom into the happy, confident girl I've always had the potential to be. And trust me, there's plenty of love tucked away in this little royal heart. I absolutely adore meeting other dogs, although I'll need slow, gentle introductions while I learn the ropes of being a much-loved pet. I'm a particularly playful girl with my fellow houndies, so if there's another dog in my future palace, they'll need to be a tolerant sort who doesn't mind a bit of royal silliness! I could also live with children over five, provided they're kind, gentle and understand that even a Queen occasionally needs a little peace, quiet and personal space. Now, don't worry. Your home doesn't need to be fit for a Queen. It just needs to be the right fit for THIS Queen. My requirements are actually quite modest: a soft and comfortable throne (or three), kind and patient humans, and perhaps the occasional treat delivered with the respect my title deserves. After a rather unsettled start, I'm ready for my happily-ever-after. I don't need a palace or a kingdom. I just need a family who will love me, reassure me and show me that I'm finally home. I promise to repay you with a lifetime of affection, goofy antics and unconditional love. Until we meet, Love, (your) Queen xxx Good with children aged 5 and over.
