Hi Smokey, and Welcome!

You've brought another greythound owner out of the woodwork. I just adopted my 22 month old greyhound, Jamey, 2 months ago. He has learned a lot since then, mostly with a lot of patience on my part. i.e. when he was just about to lay down, I would give the command "down" and praise him for doing it. (Sort of like clicker training without the clicker). Now he will lay down when I tell him to. He will come on command too, and we are working on the sit (that's a hard one Carrie!)
Do you know about a UK greyhound club? If you'd like to know, please e-mail me and I will give you the URL (it's at home).

As Carrie says, we'd like to see pictures please!

OK a bit more. Jamey is a social butterfly, for a greyhound. He does like people, and will actively seek them out for a hug. He plays with fleece toys, loves nylabone "bones", and even plays with a tennis ball on a rope...he fetches that. I guess what I'm trying to say is that amongst greyhounds you can find different personalities, different likes and dislikes. Jamey knew how to play when he came to me. But I hear that some never learn, never have an interest.

Happy, Jamey-Greyhound, and his 2 Lab sisters, Bailey and Heidi. Oh, and the 4 kitties too.
