We are thinking of getting a retired greyhound. We've been without a dog now for 6 or so years. We swore we would never have another after the pain of losing our last dog, but feel ready now. We have had rescued dogs over the years, but never a greyhound before, although our daughter did have a lovely lurcher for many years. We have been researching for ages on the web - finding out about the pitfalls and plusses of having one of these lovely dogs, but would love to hear any stories members here can offer us.
Huge vets bills are another consideration for us, it's not the day to day expense of food and inoculations etc, or even the occasional moderate cost of an illness or injury, but the high charges vets seem to charge these days...................we couldn't afford thousands of pounds, but we could give a dog a loving comfortable home. Fostering is out of the question, I would get too attached very quickly.
Has anybody on the forum had a rescue greyhound before?
Anybody here work for a greyhound sanctuary?
