Doesn't seem to be any discussions on these wonderful hounds? I have one greyhound and one lurcher. The greyhound was due to be put to sleep at 18 months as he wasn't fast enough. The lurcher was basdlt abued for the first year of his life but finally seems tobe settleing after about 5 years.

Hi Tazzza: I don't personally have a greyhound, but a friend of mine at work does. She got hers from greyhound rescue. She also fosters some greyhounds until the get adopted. She had to go through this process and read a couple of books before she could get involved with the organization, but now she is a pro. I think she may be a bit obsessed with buying her greyhound coats and pajamas, I think he has about 13 coats and about 5 pair of pajamas. I actually am going to start making some. She is spending entirely too much money on those and I told her that too. She needs an anonymous group to join :-). But the dog is really nice. I met him and she always has pics of him too. Do you dress your dog up in the clothes and the hats too? If so, I will keep you posted when I get my website up and running:-)

hi Andrea Mine are both rescues. it tends to be a breed that once you get one you are totally addicted!! I do buy mine coats - they have 3-4 each but not hats or PJs - although I would like to see pics!! Rescued hounds are always worth spoiling LOL Ever thought about getting one yourself?
