Greyhounds are so misunderstood...

I am guilty as charged, though went to university near a greyhound park (Victoryland). Magnificant animals, then again, I like the larger dogs.

Bascially a small Greyhound. She was the sweetest, most loving, and playful dog I've ever owned. She is very missed. Love these kinds of dogs.

They are incredibly spiritual animals and they have very strange habits. Ours are just like the one in this video. If anyone is interested in adopting one, there will be ample opportunity as many racers are being turned out from tracks because of track closures.
