More About Cosmo

Cosmo is a young cream gold Saluki male who came here from across the U.S. from his breeder when he accidentally injured his tail on a tree and the breeder thought his tail might be too short for him to be shown. Strangely enough, Cosmo has the most gorgeous tail that we have ever seen on a Saluki. It forms the entire crest and stays that way whether up or relaxed. Like most Salukis, when Cosmo runs, he looks like he is flying. But, Cosmo flies higher and more beautifully than anyone or anything we have every seen. Salukis run a bit differently than the average dog. They take a few strides and then leap into the air. They almost look like a deer in flight. When all of our Salukis run together or in the midst of the others, it is a breathtakingly beautiful sight to see!!!! Cosmo is amazing to watch and he is so loving and sweet and affectionate. He is always ready to hug and give the sweetest and most sensitive kisses! He is looking for the best home on earth to love and adore him for life!!!

Because we receive hundreds of inquiries each week about the many beautiful dogs that we have for adoption, and because we have a limited staff, we can only answer inquiries about our available dogs IF YOU HAVE AN APPROVED ADOPTION APPLICATION ON FILE WITH US!

Please fill out our Adoption Application to inquire about or to adopt this Gentle Giant or Little Giant http://www.gentlegiantsrescue.com/forms/adoption_application.htm

If you cannot adopt a dog at this time, please consider giving a tax deductible donation http://www.gentlegiantsrescue.com/donations.htm#donation1
to help provide food, shelter and medical care to the many needy dogs we rescue each week who are looking for safe, loving homes for life!

All dogs are spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations, de-wormed, and are treated with Advantix for fleas and ticks. They are also micro-chipped.

Cosmo is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered.
