GO GREYHOUND

Some information to consider if you want to adopt a greyhound:

Why so skinny? Greyhounds are supposed to be skinny. Being overweight may endanger their health. A greyhound can safely gain five pounds over its racing weight.

Coexist with cats? Generally they do.

Compatible with other dogs? Although they grow up only with other greyhounds, they usually get along well with other dog breeds.

Good with children? Most greyhounds love children.
