Thankyou for posting this article!!! Yay for greyhound adoption, I love my greys and my life is awesome because of their presence in it :) I would recomend a greyhound to any potential owner who will care for and love their new dog. They've had it hard, and are ready for the good life :)They raced into my heart!!! -

can you adopt on line, and perhaps get a picture of the pet before deciding? I can't travel to mass to see what I am getting but a picture would do. I would want a female (thier usually a little smaller) and one that did not run well so it has not had it heart run out of her. I also want one well trained and obeidient, or easy to retrain to obey me and my wife. I can't walk so I would have to run him with a electric cart, which I am sure would work out fine. My family is against this because I am not well, but I believe a pet might raise my spirits and give me something to get my mind off other problems. My late son had a greyhound he adored that animal and it broke his heart to have to give him up. If you could tell me what I should do to proceed with this adoption, I would ge so pleased. I thank you in advance, I am sir robert B.Smith (HKt-B)

Some greyhounds may be unfamiliar with unexpected things: like stair steps. Coax them the first few times, if they balk at them. The first time you may have to physically lift their paws and walk them. They are very intelligent, and it won't take long

If you decide to adopt a retired racing greyhound, don't be surprised if it turns into a couch potato! Remember, these dogs have had pretty hard lives at the track and deserve the rest and relaxation. This is not to say your dog won't enjoy a run though!

We call ours "the house horse." His name is Exxon. I have horses, a goat, a donkey and assorted pets. He is wonderful with them all. He normally finds a place at a distance and keeps an eye on me, but stays out of the way.
