Question: what are the prices on these animals?KnitPicker said:Greyhounds are not naturally active dogs, like a Jack Russell. People think because they're racers they need a lot of exercise, but the truth is that they are the most couch lovers of all the couch potato loving dogs. They are great for apartments and while some are prone to play, most would rather find a soft comfy place and lie down to snooze. I've had several and love the greyhound.
Most come from racing tracks and if not adopted are often slaughtered. Many racing tracks contact greyhound rescue groups to take them before any action is taken once they are finished racing. They are so affectionate and laid back. You can fit many greyhounds into a small space and they would be quite happy. There are many cousin breeds that feel the same way.
Greyhounds come in different sizes, too, although I wouldn't call any small - other than the Whippet or Miniature, which are supposed to be small. Look them up! who knows - you may be a Greyhound parent and not know it.
A greyhound puppy, while so cute, is a "Dennis the Menace" and unless you like training, get a grown up retired racer. The puppies are horribly active and extremely mischievous until they reach their teenage years (in dog years), and you usually can't get them from a racing establishment....only from a breeder. You must have the patience of Job to tackle a greyhound puppy.
Please, look at the Greyhound rescues. They are waiting just for you!

Natural position for a greyhound! They don't have all that fat on their body to restrict movement.
