Awesome.

I’m sure they told you, don’t let it off lead while outside.

Bill Douglas 02-19-2019 02:24 PM

He's got a kindly face.

Looks like he's found a loving home!

I meet a couple of grey hounds when out walking my dog

They're both lovely dogs and one of them chatters it's teeth when excited

He and us have a lot to learn but everyday gets better.
He is so gentle but doesn't know his own size in
In the house. . Loves to run in the snow

Axel's a great looking dog.

I had a buddy that had a couple of chihuahuas and then they adopted a greyhound. The greyhound was awesome. They are interesting dogs.

I've also seen Italian Greyhound Rescue folks on weekends outside of a local pet food store. They are also super cool, but much smaller.

Well if you like them Florida now has a bumper crop.
Law of unintended consequences anyone...

Handsome guy!
Love that first picture, he looks downright regal. And he seems to have his own PlayStation controller.

I had no idea Greyhounds are that size. Wow.

Well done.

Jims5543 02-19-2019 04:55 PM

Congrats, looks like a sweetheart!!

There is a rescue Greyhound in our neighborhood names Bella, she is the sweetest dog, gets all excited when our rescue mutt and her see each other.

Great dogs, IIRC Beela had a very wide collar on, I asked about it, seems they are better for their necks, something to look into. Hers was over 2" wide, maybe more like 3" wide.

We tried to adopt a second rescue last week the rescue group we were dealing with was flaky and never followed through, the dog we were looking to adopt was placed somewhere else while we were in the process of adopting it.

We decided it was a sign to not bother for a while, we will revisit towards the end of the summer. We have a busy summer ahead.

Awesome! Good job on the rescue. I've heard they make great companions. SmileWavy

Looks sweet. That's the high performance model, btw. :)

stealthn 02-19-2019 05:51 PM

That is a beautiful dog. Congrats on the rescue!
