I’m a Greyhound convert. I have a cross that’s beautiful

Could you please avoid starting every second sentence with 'so'. This is supposed to be a professional presentation.

Mine is working out so well, a loving and loved family member

Nick and Monty Replace "n" with "r" and boom

Have a 3yr old greyhound/saluki ... waiting a couple more years and go get him a iggy companion and looking forward to my boy showing the little beaut the world and protecting. Love iggys!!!

I work harder now, like really putting in hours, so that one day I can have a small bit of property to adopt a greyhound. Real story, I was afraid of dogs, terrified of larger ones, until I was fourteen and I met Ernie the big old greyhound. Never have I met a more sweet, goofy, just purely awesome animal, and i fell completely in love. I can now say with confidence that I am an avowed dog person, in the sense that I can't encounter any dog without doing the baby voice and giving them pats and belly rubs. That has had mixed results with police dogs, but overall, Ernie was an ambassador for dogs everywhere and should be praised.

Do I also have to buy a metal commode for the friendly dog?

I have just adopted. Collecting Saturday 24th and cannot wait!!! The whole family is super excited! Thanks to GAP. They are fantastic in what they provide you. All the info, tutorials, the adoption days. Fantastic stuff.

😂😂😂so good

Talk about staying the bleeding obvious

When Florida banned greyhound racing, my wife and I started looking at adopting a retired racer. There was a local organization here in northern Indiana that took in those dogs and adopted them out. They were so great at working with us to find the right dog for us. We've had our lovely girl for almost 4 years and she turns 8 years old in September of this year. I really don't think I'd adopt a different breed. Especially since there are still plenty of greyhounds out there looking for forever homes.

Please tell me how to increase greyhound stamina for long run....and diet also

Very good job

It's not a home without a Greyhound!

A wonderful useful video.

❤ very nice ❤

We have adopted our third Greyhound after losing two before due to cancer. They are wonderful pets. There are thousands out there waiting to be adopted!

I just wish his comment "Some don't get the chance" didn't leave a lot open to interpretation

I have a Kelpie and she is always with me. I’ve been wondering about having a friend for her. What would a grey hound be like ?

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Adopted my sweet girl 6 months ago. I’m besotted with her. She’s the most beautiful lovely gentle goofball.

2019 the law changed again so I don't believe they need to be muzzled unless off lead

I have 2 Italian greyhounds and they're just like what everyone says here, too! My dream is to move to a bigger place with a yard so that I can adopt retired racer greyhounds🥰🐕💖🤍💕💕💕

We have a Greyhound. He growls once a day. Me moving him to try to get into bed! But he is very affectionate

I grew up with poodles/poodle mix. My last childhood dog (a cavoodle) sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in January this year. In the haze of grief, Greyhounds were suggested to me and I was embarrassingly unaware they were an option as a pet. Long story short, I ended up volunteering at the GAP shelter and met my sweet girl. I’ve had her about three months and couldn’t be more besotted with her.

I'm going to get one

Interesting that Whippets have exactly the same behaviour than their "bigger" ones. I have a whippet and would like to have in Brazil those greyhounds.

Thank God this is a massive step forward for these magnificent animals. There should be a retirement fund set up for the animals who are lucky enough to be adopted. The ongoing cost for supporting these adopted animals is enormous when you consider food and vet bills. Even if their yearly supply of flea tick and heart worm medication was funded by greyhound racing Australia would be a great help. The people who are willing to clean up the mess caused by greyhound racing should get as much assistance as possible. When you hear these dog racing people say how much they love their animals , doesn’t cut it with me. That love certainly diminishes when the dogs racing days are done. The sad thing is there are still many dogs being put down after racing still and this heart breaking.

That's it! I'm convinced I want one !!

I’ll never be without one or two!

I volunteered in placing retired racing greyhounds for ten years and had three of my own. I fostered many. I agreed with almost all the video said. But I have to say I'm disturbed that Australia requires them to be muzzled in public (I'm in the U.S.). That is likely why people in Oz think they are aggressive! The reason you ever - EVER - muzzle one is to race or run with other dogs, because they tend to nip each other in fun when racing. That's why racing greys wear muzzles. It has nothing at all to do with any aggression toward humans. Also - the only big error I caught in the video was that when the vet said greyhounds used to be only owned by nobility (the law all over Europe in the Middle Ages) - which is true. But he assumes the reason is that "they were such great family dogs", and that is not it at all. For hundreds of years they were only owned by nobility because they were used to hunt large game and only the landowner (nobleman or king) was allowed to hunt big game. For a commoner to be caught with a greyhound meant that he was poaching game, and that was a huge big deal in a time when all game meat came from hunting. It was major theft. Greyhounds were rarely "family dogs"", but rather kept together in kennels and used for hunting. Kings would have up to several thousand of them, and often gifted them to other noblemen.

I have grejyhoun since 7 years hé is a very Good boys hé is so intelligent lover for m'y wife we are crazy about him a super dog

Am in love

I'm on my fourth Greyhound,would be lost without her,just turning 6

I just had a question with being off leash, dog beaches etc - i know there's various official recommendations when the dog has been through a GAP safety assessment, I live in an apartment and for exercise i was hoping to take my greyhound to the beach for a stretch of his legs - is it a gentle introduction, socialising matter or is it just not viable for a greyhound to be off leash a t a dog beach?

The Perfect Put.arhon orhonsput

Love my long dog greyhound borzoi he’s just a lover boy I just worry about him getting cold so I make him cloths not pretty but functional and he don’t mind as long as he’s not cold but of course I spoil him greatly I’ll get more soon

Nice

I have heard that they do have bad teeth, and bad teeth can be costly, and isusually not covered by insurance. But I love this dog, and will so get one as my next pet ❤️. The toothbrush will be well used however 🤗

Clearly doesn’t apply to puppies and adolescents lol my 10 months old dog is a complete nutter hahaha

Yeah

I 've had 4 rescue greyhounds from Ireland!

All Rubbish. I have a grey hound and none of this is right?

We adopted our first 22 years ago and hopefully will never have anything but greys if we can still find them in the US. They are the sweetest and such easy going dogs. They are gentle and very adaptable to different types of homes. They love to sleep 18-20 hrs a day but get their exercise in occasionally sprints and short walks.

Ruthie, our adopted racing Greyhound thru Team Greyhound Ohio was the best pet ever. Trained in a Prison Program, never got on furniture, didn’t bark, just loved everyone.
