Greyhounds must live indoors. They cannot withstand temperature extremes and have delicate skin which requires sleeping on a soft bed. Greyhounds must never be chained or staked outside. They are highly social animals and must be with people. Greyhounds must always be on a leash when outdoors or within a secure fenced in area.
Greyhounds are sight hounds and can see clearly for a half mile.
They have no knowledge of cars and traffic and can travel at great speed. Greyhounds enjoy walking or jogging, and are very well behaved on a leash. Greyhounds are patient, loving animals. All children should be taught to respect any dog, and never to bother a dog that is sleeping. Greyhounds have lived with other greyhounds all their life and should quickly make friends with other dogs that you have.
