Greyhounds are docile, gentle,
low-key creatures. On the track, greyhounds may possess outstanding athletic
abilities, but in the home environment, they're "regular couch potatoes". Like
any family dog, however, they need regular exercise to maintain their good
health. A nice long walk on the leash three or four times a week is recommended.
A fenced-in yard will make a great play area for your greyhound and
provide it with adequate room for exercise.
-
Greyhounds are wonderfully
outgoing, friendly and not aggressive.
-
Greyhounds are easy to train
and are very social. Greyhounds adapt very quickly to your routine. Riding
in a car, climbing stairs, playing with toys and other "firsts" may confuse a
greyhound that is unaccustomed to these activities, but in no time at all he/she
will master these and other household challenges.
-
Greyhounds love children and
other pets. Greyhounds possess one of
the best temperaments of all dog breeds. Gentle, patient and sensitive, they
make ideal companions for children and seniors alike.
-
Greyhounds want to sleep
indoors. Greyhounds love romping and frolicking outdoors (supervised), but
after play time, they belong indoors. They naturally have little body fat and a
thin coat that does not protect them against weather extremes.
