    At one time, my wife and I had ten greys in the house. Not a big deal since they are pretty much couch potatoes. The only time that was challenging was when people came to the house. ALL of the dogs wanted to be the first to kiss them to death! Awesome dogs.

    They are all so fascinating to watch, with their different characters! You are so calm with them, and you can see all the greys love you. My black rescue greyhound Madge always wants to lick visitors to bits when they come to the front door, as her welcoming gambit! I would love to have another greyhound to keep Madge company, but I really do not have the room here, and no garden, although we live in a very rural spot, in West Devon, England, with no passing traffic. I take her out for walks about 4/5 times a day. Madge had the racing name Devils Magic, and she raced at Poole racetrack, in England, until she was rescued, and it is her 7th Birthday today - the 20th March, 2024! I have had her for 4 years now. Blessings and love to you and all your greyhounds, for Jilly & Madge. xxx

    So glad I'm not the only person who makes her bed because her greyhound likes to sleep on it! He objects if it's rumpled in any way when he jumps up. Not a princess at all, nooooo. I live in north Queenland, Australia, in a warm tropical climate very much like yours, and I too entertain visiting greys when their people need to go away, but I've had three max, mainly because my house is small and I don't have the floor space for more. I've started a social group for local greys and their Staff, and we have coffee and walks once a month. My grey, Mouse, has his own blog, where he writes about travel, eating out, the shortcomings of his Staff, new toys or equipment, etc. His tone can be quite snarky and he complains that I don't type fast enough when he's dictating!

    I thought it was hard to work in the day with two needy greyhounds - you definitely had your work cut out here! Never enough pairs of hands 😁. I wanted to thank you for showing what sleep startle is like, because when we first got our girl greyhound, we were kind of confused at how she could seem totally awake and yet still be barking/growling/snapping. It just takes them some time to wake fully and for 'omg humans mean fuss and treats!' to come online, I guess. There's still times our girl will wake, get up on the bed, and yet still borksnap if we touch her or move too much for her liking. We've just gotten used to living with it now, but for people who aren't used to it it can seem really scary I guess, especially as greyhounds are quite big dogs.

    we have six Dobermans and I have always heard they have a lot of greyhound in them and after watching this video, I am convinced. Two of ours could practically be greyhounds. If you see Dobie with no ears cropped or tail docked, you can see this even more. I see it in the personality/mannerisms, too.

      I think so too. I have a doberman pit mix and she is everything people describe greyhounds to be. She looks very much like a grey hound and doberman. She does like to guard and bark a little when she sees other dogs walking past our house but no excessively. She's very calm and sweet natured but loves to go on runs through the yard and back to being calm after she's done.
