They are very friendly and get along well with other animals and children. I test my future adoptees with cats and other small animals. They learn very quickly. They do not shed much. Greyhounds do not eat a lot.
Greyhounds are very humble animals.
They do require a lot of attention. They do not do well if left alone for long periods of time. Most will do fine during the day when the family is not home, but should be boarded or left with responsible relatives or friends for longer periods. Adopting a greyhound is a very important step. You need to be sure of what you are getting into.
