Madam Chelsea (Chelsea) red brindle female, 74lbs, 36 races

DOB 11/3/19

Personality:
Chelsea is a friendly, outgoing, confident, and personable dog with a fluffy tail that reflects her lively and approachable demeanor. She has a confident personality and enjoys engaging with people, making her an affectionate companion. Chelsea can be a bit strong-willed at times, especially with other breed dogs. Despite this, she has the potential to do well in a household with children aged 5 years+ or with another larger or calmer dog. She may be suited to an adopter who can provide consistent guidance and structure.
Previous history:
Lived on a rural greyhound property with no exposure to other dogs except greyhounds. Has had a successful racing career with no major injuries.
GAP Staff comments:
One of our favourite dogs, there have been no problems in the yards with handling Chelsea. When rushed head on by another greyhound she may sometimes grumble, but has not displayed any aggression. At times she can be excitable and high energy.
Airline Wooden Crate Familiarization:
Chelsea’s crate session in January went well. She walked calmly and was comfortable on all types of floors, showing no issues with her new environment. Chelsea laid down in the crate and remained relaxed for the remainder of the session. She settled well and is capable of staying calm and comfortable once she feels at ease.

Overall Comments:
Chelsea is a sweet, confident dog with a strong personality that can benefit from a structured and consistent environment. While she needs more socialization with other breed dogs, her gentle nature with people and ability to relax in new situations, highlight her potential to thrive in the right home. Chelsea is likely to do best in a home
with children aged 5years+ or where she has a calm, larger dog companion. She may be best suited to an older adopter who can give her the time and patience she needs to adjust and grow. With continued positive reinforcement, Chelsea will continue to show progress and become an even more affectionate and well-behaved companion.
