Though the dogs are trained athletes, once they retire they are
considered among the most affectionate, well behaved and intelligent
pets. They don't bark continuously … they don't jump on you …
they travel well … and in most cases the adoptable greyhounds
are quite young (2-3 years old) with a life expectancy of 11 years.
There is a $210 donation fee
when you adopt a greyhound. The fee covers spaying/neutering,
etc. |
