  • I decided to follow my Greyhound, Tosh on her 6th birthday May 9th 2023!
    Hi, I’m Steph! A DIYer, author, and podcast host. I live in Tallahassee, FL with my adopted greyhound, Tosh. She is a retired racer adopted from Greyhounds as Pets in Jacksonville, FL.
    I adopted Tosh in 2020, and she was born 2017.
    My first greyhound, Mac, passed away in Jan 2023. The names Mac & Tosh were a reference to my favorite computer, the Macintosh.
    Every greyhound is different and I am just sharing my experience with my greyhounds. This is for entertainment purposes.

    My dad's greyhound does the exact same thing with his ears when he is interested in something. I like to call it "yellow alert".

    I have a male brindle ex-racer greyhound. He does exactly the same things. We go for 2 0.75 or 1 mile walks. He sleeps/lounges around the house and sleeps at the door outside of my room. Best dog ever!

    Greyhounds are great. I've had some and they're all the same. Mega Olympian athletes one hour per day and laaaaaaaid back for the other 23. I wouldn't want to take one to a pet store though. They have terrible social anxiety and the panting and dehydration can get pretty bad.

    I've heard that these dogs are real couch potatoes. My spirit greyhound is in Heaven having the ball
    of her life. I've told her that she needs to keep an eye on all my other Pekingnese dogs. (Also, couch
    potatoes).

    So beautiful. We’ve got two boys. Has anyone else noticed that kind of lip and tongue smacking they do when they’re happy to see you? Not the teeth chattering, I know about that. It’s very subtle and took me ages to pick up on it, but I noticed Tosh doing it here and have always found it curious and unique.

I’ve had up to 25 dogs (I invite my fellow apartment tenants and have bagels/coffee/water and dog treats!!). Striker is now 13 years. I have had him only 2 yrs 4 mos. Take care!!😇❤from Jean (and Striker).

    How amazingly different (and serene) than my GSD+Dutch cross. He does not do anything by himself, always after me. This video would be like recording my shadow. That watching the squirrel part, for example, would be me watching if he is going to break the window. Meeting with other dogs peacefully? 👹 Enjoy your wonderful Greyhound.

    • @smkauthor

    I’m looking forward to having a sight hound where I can give wayyyy more treats and them not gain weight. My current dog I have to really watch. I ended up getting my girl fat. And on top of that I was FAT SHAMED . :(. But I adjusted her health and did more open space running. Still, even with that, I have to watch what she eats. Currently she is perfect.
    Poeple should not fat shame even towards animals. Some breeds put on weight more easily such as basset hound, pit bulls and even labs. ❤

  • @D5DRIFT
    @D5DRIFT Před 8 měsíci

    Awesome stuff. I have always adored greyhounds and my goal is to rescue one when the time is right, i.e, a bigger flat/house.
    I always find it strange that regardless of how well treated greyhounds are, and even ones that have never been raced, still have the inbred compulsive nature towards small fluffy animals 😊.
