Greyhounds are not like other dogs! Growing up in kennels, training to race and moving to a home as an adult mean they have their own quirks and needs when they retire. My name is Jill, and my business JW Canine Care draws on many years of experience with this breed, to bring you videos on everything greyhound-related, from basic care for their specific needs to homing a greyhound to working on behaviour issues.

A greyhound summer walk
A beautiful walk is one of the pleasures of owning a greyhound. We take a gentle walk through the fields and admire the views.

Keeping a garden presentable when you have greyhounds can be a losing battle. In Part 1 I reflected on my decision to have artificial grass installed, and considered if it really was worth it or not. This time I take a look at some of the pros and cons of artificial grass from a wider perspective of it's environmental impact as well as for your greyhound garden.

So relaxing. The boys look happy and calm. I hope your move went well and that you're all enjoying life outside the big city.
So calming
Hope that you have settled into your new home with the crowd? Blessings from Jilly & Madge. xxx
We're working on it!
It’s very lovely scenery ❤️
Thanks, Team Floppy, for checking on the crops! Good job 👏
Our pleasure!
They look like they are enjoying them self’s and at peace walking lovely together
They do enjoy the sniffs 😎
Ahhhhhhh the wide open spaces. Better food for the souls of all 🙏🏻🤍 Lovely to see them 🐾 and you 💃 taking it all in. Rain or shine, it's all there to enjoy 😊👍 Many lovely refreshing things to come.😘 Blessings and love to you all 🌹
So true! Thank you!
@@jwcaninecare 🙏🏻😘
What a lovely location for a walk. Floppy & Gandalf (or was it AJ?) looked very relaxed.
It was! It's Gandalf and Floppy
Aww looks like their loving life ❤
Gandolph's GREYT GREYHOUND GRUMPY/GIDDY LYFE! Depends on my mood. 👑🫅👸👑👯♂️👯♀️🏌♀️🏌♂️🛀🛌🧘♂️🧘♀️🎥🎬📽🎬🖥💻🔌
That'd be perfect! 🤣
RIP Daisy. Just lost our second greyhound George, aged nearly 11,bad arthritis and his weight loss forced our decision. Grief stricken but so grateful to have had him in our lives,the house feels so empty 😢
So sorry for your loss :-(
Could you name any makes or where I could get them please. My girl does slip 😮
Mats? You can get ones with non slip backing, or put a non slip matting underneath (I've found this in various shops that sell rugs /furnishings) and the grippy corners can be found on amazon if you can't find them locally
My dad was a police dog handler and trainer he taught me to feed kibble and wet food in the same bowl he used bear hands to mix it ! ( I use rubber gloves but dogs love it 🐶! Thanks Jill for sensible advice as always 😊
You're very welcome!
❤😂 Magnificent long noses. All soooo damn gorgeous every day❤🐾😘

We adopted a greyhound and he showed no sleep startle. However, today, twice, he had sleep startle that scared both the cats and the humans in the house. We experienced an earthquake that was a 5 on the Richter scale earlier and he was terrified. Im wondering if this actually triggered the sudden onset of sleep startle we've now witnessed.
Could well have made him anxious about any movement near him, poor chap. Hope you are all safe!
@jwcaninecare I believe so. I moved my seat last night, and it dragged on the floor, making a noise and vibration. Poor pup jumped up scared, looking for somewhere to run to.
Or Floppy’s guide to watering? 🤣
ohhh great name!
Or "Holes wot I have dug!"
So many to choose from!
Best of luck. Once contracts are exchanged you'll relax a little and things will be fun (almost!).
It was complete mayhem putting all the plans in place ;-)
good luck jill,hope all ends well..x
I hope so too!
May you surprise yourself with how smoothly it will all fall into the new place! ❤
Fingers crossed!
Look at Flopster.. he clearly adores you Jill. It's beautiful to see.. I suspect they will actually all settle quicker than you think they will. When I first got Codie, I was living in two places - London and Northamptonshire. I had the first 2 weeks at home with the boy and then had to return to work - but I didn't go down to my place in London for 6 weeks. I was so nervous about how he was going to adapt etc. etc. I needn't have been. Within 2 visits to town, he knew exactly where everything was, understood that our daily routine was different when in London than at "the other place" and slotted right in. For a naturally anxious dog, he did unbelievably well - and has always done so whenever we've been off visiting family or friends, or on holiday. He wants to know where his feeding station is, where his bed is AND where he toilets. That's about it. Good luck for the move Jill!
Sounds like you're blessed with your Codie.
@@angelikalindenau943 I am indeed - but my new girlie, Darcey, isn't as relaxed about being in new environments as I found out when I took the dogs over to a wedding in Wales a few weeks ago. She simply didn't settle and went on "toilet strike". I ended up coming back a day early because of it. Bless her..
Its hard to know how each will react. I think the saying is, hope for the best and plan for the worst? With my houseful of nutters who knows what will happen!
Hope all goes well
Thank you!
Holly Greyhound and Izzy Greyhound send all Best Wishes for a smooth move and hopes for a long and happy life in your New Home.❤
Thank you!
Good Luck.
Thank you!
Best wishes for smooth move ❤
You sound really well organised. But it's stressful moving, let alone trying to cope with dogs as well. You've thought of everything! The dogs are in great hands.
Thank you, I'm doing my best!
God moving an absolute nightmare, I have done it numerous times. I had no real choice but to put mine in kennels. The difference being that they seem to have loved it there. I wish you good.luck in your new house, and I'm sure the guys will love it there. Look forward to the live stream. XX
I really hope not to have to do this again!
Jill on your end, it seems you have your bases covered. I pray that all will go well for you and the dear dogs. You seem to have a good plan. God Bless!
Thank you!
It's really a big undertaking. Our hound gets really upset if we even move the furniture a bit. I hope they settle in quickly.
Sometimes even little things are upsetting!
Hope the move goes smoothly. Take care of yourself
I so feel for you! But the new place sounds like it will eventually make life much easier so hoping the move goes smoothly. You've put so much thought and planning into it and i appreciate that you've shared it with us. Just keep breathing and you'll get through thisn
Yes! Thank you!
Wishing you all the luck in the world!! Before you know it you will be sighing a big sigh of relief and the pups will be happy and content in their new home, love from Kim and Ron.😀
Thank you so much!!
At least they won't ask, 3 weeks down the road, 'Mom, when are we going home?' like my former neighbours' then 4-year-old (even though the family had acquired a pony that used to graze in an adjacent field to come along - their dog count then was a very modest 1)...
You've put so much thought into all of this Jill, your hounds are lucky to have you! Sending you wishes of a smooth move with happy times ahead❤
Thank you! You too!
As always, have to laugh at Floppy’s comments! It’s a good thing the dogs have a secretary.🤣🤣🤣
And he seems to be proud of his status as pisser-in-chief 😮
He takes it very seriously ;-)
Good luck on the move. Best wishes for the future. In a few weeks it’ll be home from home❤
Thank you so much!!
Wishing you and the gang a (as smooth as can be) resettlement period. Your pups are incredibly lucky to have your knowledge and planning on their side. I have only one dog and no plans to move, but keeping a mental note of all solutions to problems in case we ever need them when welcoming a new family member to our pack.
Glad you're finding it helpful :-)
When are you moving Jill? I hope with all my heart that it all goes through for you. I know when I moved down to Devon from Oxfordshire with my two precious cats, they were the most important thing to me to get settled before I did. My rescue greyhound Madge notices anything that changes, so to move house would not be good for her I feel, unless there was a lovely garden for her to do her zoomies in of course, which we do not have here! Blessings from Jilly & Madge. xxx
We finally moved, although it nearly fell through at the 11th hour - stress city! Busy settling in now :-)
@@jwcaninecare Wow, I am so pleased you are in! I know what it is like, as I have moved house 7 times in the last 10 years! But not with 5 greyhounds in toe, only one dog! Blessings and Good Luck to you all in your new lovely home. Jilly & Madge xxx
Best wishes Jill
Thank you!
Everyone is impressed with the size of floppy’s puddles, until it comes to mop it up 😉
Jim tries to out compete him sometimes ;-)
Share your biscuits, good boy! Nom-nom & yum-yum. ❤😋😋😋❤
Aww. I feel real bad for Gandalf...🥹 My dog Edwin has a ball thingy like a fish... I call it Flying Fish and it's gone and got torn up... So I've bought an identical one played a game with the old one, sleight of hand and as if by magic - 🪄🎩🧙♀️ new flying fish was in the game, as if nothing had ever happened to it. 🐠🎉🎊🥳..I hope Gandalf will find his inner wizard at this very difficult time and magic will happen for him too. 😅⚾ Lovely Gandalf, I'm wishing upon a star ✨ or 3. 🥰
I've tried one that looks identical... He won't touch it 😳 not to be fooled, this one!
@@jwcaninecareIt's the smell maybe? Some of these new toys have a funny smell on them I've sniffed them myself, It has to have his smelly breath on it when you do the switch that's come off your hand touching the old one?? Smothered? It has to have doggy smells home smells.. rubbed on other things for a bit. Aww You've probably tried that too... 🙏🏻🐾 Bless GanGan, hoping something new and lovely will take his fancy someday soon. It's horrible being sad when something goes 🙏🏻xx
