A rare sight

I've always thought they were really cool...if it wasn't so damn cold here half of the year I would have considered getting one when I was dog hunting. But since my dog comes to work with me it had to be a little more cold weather friendly.

I grew up on the Canadian border in New Hampshire and we had to put a sweatshirt on the one we saved just so he could go outside to pee real quick! Poor guy needed to go south for the winters.

I love the Italian Greyhounds:

i've wanted a greyhound since i was about 12 years old. it's the only dog i ever want again.

i worked with a greyhound rescue group when i lived in portland, and the one thing you'll notice is that many of those who rescue these dogs have more than one. they're like pringles

they are without a doubt the nicest dogs i have ever met. when i worked with them we would go to events like equestrian events and about 8 owners would bring their dogs. my job? to take care of the dogs. so while cleaning up poop for 8 hours was job too -- i got to spend 8 hours hanging out with sometimes a dozen greyhounds.

i've enjoyed very few things more in the last few years than i did spending time with those dogs.

The lady that grooms our golden retriever and our cokkapoo has both a greyhound and an Italian greyhound. the greyhound is AWESOME, straight up chills. Italian greyhound is a pain in the ass.....

you can stack them in a can??? just kidding.

tony says no more dogs. but i'd love to go to west memphis and adopt one. they aren't the prettiest dogs in the world, but true athletes and from all i've seen, they make wonderful pets. but you have to have a fence, and i haven't got one at the moment.

I'm not a big dog guy ( I hate animals and people equally ) but I have good friends who adopted two greyhounds, brothers actually, and they are awesome dogs. Very sweet.

The program for adopting greyhounds is really terrific.

I'm not to overly fond of most people....which is probably why I enjoy animals!
