Get to know Toddler
Saluki, 13 years old
She came from Grace rescue Guisbrough .
My favourite thing about Toddler is...
When we got her she would climb into a large crate and walk along the window sill. She loves putting her head on your knee when you’re poorly, I had a knee replacement and she wouldnt' leave my side. She had a bad start in life and still suffers but has the biggest heart for her family.
The biggest challenge with Toddler is...
Letting people see at her - she wants too but was hurt as a pup and hasn't forgot the cruel treatment.
The most surprising thing about owning a Saluki is...
They are so shy.
What I wish I’d known about Salukis is...
You need patience.
Did you know?
Prized by their royal owners in ancient Egypt, their death would be marked by a period of deep mourning and they would often be mummified wearing their ornate hunting collars. The famous boy king Tutankhamun is shown in his tomb with his favourite hounds - which all appear to be Salukis.
