3-greys, I know what you mean! I wish I could just adopt all the lovable doggies that need a home!! Buddy is just gorgeous and Bandit is a doll!! I have been thinking about doing a rescue greyhound when I feel the time is right for a dog, but wanted some information on the process and all and what it's like to teach them the normal activities of new everyday living! Maybe you could help me out on this!! I've been wanting a dog for a very long time and have done research on multiple different kinds of dogs that I love...but I do feel a rescue of some kind is the best way to to. It's just that I work so much right now that I've put adopting on hold...
Zippy, I think the reason why greyhounds wear wide collars is because they can easily slip out of regular collars due to the small streamlined proportion of their heads. And, it's not advised to put a choker coller around their neck as their skin is thin and can tear easily!! So, they have these "elizabethan" collars made for dogs like the greyhound, borzoi, etc...that they can't slip their heads out of. I'm sure 3-greys will be able to answer the question better though!
