Greyhound Mum

I have a rescue greyhound so I wasn’t surprised that the mural artist for the renovated Coles in South Perth chose to feature a greyhound in their artwork. They are great dogs, and great pets.

Contrary to popular thought, they don’t need a lot of exercise. They are built for sprinting and as long as they get out at least once a day for a walk and a sniff, they are usually content to laze around the rest of the day. Accordingly, they actually make great pets for unit and apartment dwellers. You don’t need a big backyard to have a greyhound as they would much rather be on your couch than outside! “Lazy” seems such a pejorative word so let’s say that they are “relaxed” dogs - very calm, like a bit of attention but mostly content just to lie about.

If you are looking to add a dog to your family or your home, please ask me any questions about greyhounds and hopefully I can convince you to adopt one.
