Additional Details:

Game is an adorable, red male that just turned 5 on March 27th. He is a smaller guy that raced at 68lbs. His sire is CTW Atom Smasher and his dam is Craigie Glaze. Game is a happy, bouncy boy that is very friendly and pays close attention to the people around him. He seems to want to be with people and will even stop playing with other dogs to get attention from a person, even one he just met. He has never met a stranger and loves everyone. Game is excited to check out everything new on walks so does need some work on not pulling on leash. He has more energy than your average 5 year old greyhound and is actually one of our more energetic boys. If you want a playful, goofy, fun guy this is the one. We marked Game as older kids only just because he is so silly and playful. He loves kids and wants to play with them but with his playful, silly nature is likely to bump an unsteady toddler and knock them down accidentally. He seems like he would be a fun dog for a family with school age kids that wanted a dog that would play with them though. His ideal match would be an active involved family who is searching for a companion that is up for adventure. Game was curious about the cats in his cat test at the track but corrected well and lost interest, so we think he should be trainable with cats with supervision. He has been fine with some small, calm dogs he has met but gets pretty excited when little dogs are running around him. He is on the small side for a male greyhound but with the size difference he might do better living with medium sized dogs he can play with instead of very tiny ones. Game can be talkative when excited so would not be the best dog for apartment living. Got Game?
