Want to see some awesome Greyhound photos? Look no further.
The Greyhound is a very distinctive dog most people are familiar with. Coming in a variety of different colors, it’s a tall and very lean dog. Despite its large size, a healthy Greyhound only weighs in at around 80lb — even though most dogs of the same height would weigh a lot more! They have a long skull and muzzle.
Greyhounds are very agile and fast dogs, but they don’t need a lot of space. In fact, most Greyhounds do well as apartment dogs, surprising owners who expected otherwise! They sleep most of the day. They are loyal and devoted dogs who are easy to train most things to.
The main thing to consider with a Greyhound is that they’re highly likely to have a prey drive. They chase small animals and if you’re going to raise a Greyhound in a house with a cat, you’ll have to take a lot of precautionary measures. Take introductions very slow and never leave them alone unsupervised.
Poor Recall
When it comes to even smaller animals such as rabbits and rodents, your Greyhound is unlikely to ever get along with them and you may want to consider a different breed. It can also be hard to deal with off-leash Greyhounds, as their recall is poor. For this reason, you might want to consider training your dog on a long leash.
