• Does anybody on here have a greyhound or whippet?

    We'd love to get one in the future. We don't have a garden but instead of a garden our place is right on Blackheath so we have several hundred acres of common land right outside the front door.

    Everything I read says that you MUST have a fenced off area to allow your dog to sprint. Would we be crazy to consider a greyhound or whippet considering we wouldn't be able to do that?

  • As far as I understand greyhounds, you need to ensure you have plenty of cushions for them to sleep 23 hours a day!

  • Hi there if thinking of getting a greyhound think again ..no seriously its best to have two if you don't have a fenched off area they like to chase and when you have two they kinda play tag with each other, its boring when they try this with other breeds cos the others can't catch them and the greyhonds catch them too easily without sprinting, greyhounds have great long distant vision so they will see those little creatures (squirrells,cats) well before you do, I once went to finsbury park with my dog, she bolted to the opposite corner in seconds just to tell a squirrel to clear off, she was half greyhound/Lurcher and great fun except for cat and small fluffy dog owners,Despite what people think greyhounds are not Pasifists, They will kill..
