Most often, housebreaking a greyhound is simply a matter of showing your greyhound the designated area and then giving him or her a few days to adjust to your schedule. Gentle, patient and sensitive, they make an ideal companion for children and seniors alike. Since they live with other greyhounds their whole lives, they are remarkably compatible with other pet dogs. Cats, however, are unknown to greyhounds and a little extra time and patience is required to ensure household harmony. It is easily achieved.
Greyhounds adore romping and frolicking outdoors, but after play time, they belong indoors.
They naturally have very little body fat and a thin coat that does not protect them against weather extremes. Even when they are active on the racing circuit, greyhounds are kept in heated kennels indoors. If you're ready to welcome one of these special animals into your home, please contact or visit our track Adoption Center. An adoption counselor will gladly answer any further questions and then introduce you to some of the most loveable creatures on earth. There is a nominal adoption fee which covers spaying or neutering, and vaccinations.
