[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a greyhound. She is very gentle, doesn't require much exercise, and is very quiet (she almost never barks, which I think is common but not guaranteed). Greyhounds are big dogs but they have a very low profile. They don't seem like a big dog. Ours curls up on her bed most of the day or lays sprawled out on one spot on the rug. In reference to PP, yes they are the perfect height to grab things off the counter, but ours has never stolen food from the table/counter. She prefers sneaking into the cat box instead ;)[/quote]

Me again. I'll add my con. Sometimes greyhounds have behavioral issues coming off the track. Ours was scared of everything, which is pretty common. It took a while to get her used to things and it was very frustrating. I've seen one in our rescue group that had MAJOR separation anxiety and dominance issues. Consider how long they've been on the track and how much of an alpha dog they were in racing. Ours had a short racing career (6 months, which is basically the shortest period) and I think that led her to being uncommonly friendly and social. They aren't always quite so friendly (not that they are UNfriendly, just more reserved). [/quote]
