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. Cats and other small furry indoor animals can become a greyhound's friend if the introductory period is closely supervised, however outdoors greyhounds must be constantly supervised.
