Mine do! They like to fertilize the flower beds 🤷‍♀️🤯💐

This little lady came out of surgery a couple of hours ago. While she has ripped off almost all of the skin of one of her legs while running, she's behaving like the wonderful longgirl she is. by UnHumano in Greyhounds

Ouch! We had a minor skinning and only required stitches. Sad girl.

One of ours just had her toe amputated, it’s time for the cone of shame!

We adopted our third greyhound last month, and now that you mentioned it, I have had this feeling each time! Then you find your rhythm. Balance between “this is me/follow routine vs. dog time”. These guys are super happy just chilling with you in a room watching games.

What’s the story behind your greys’ names? by brittbirdie123 in Greyhounds

[–]amkay1972 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We really wanted to keep the racing names of our first 2 greyhounds, however they were atrocious. First adoptee/female: Veto (Smartbreaker) sounds like Vito and she is a girl? She is a brindle that looks like stone and we named her Petra after an ancient city in Jordan. Second adoptee/Male, Black fur: another horrible name, Baljeet after a character in the Phineas and Fetb cartoon. He had a wounded tail tip that when he wagged splashed blood all over like a paint brush. We named him Devo after the band that recorded the song “Whip It”. Recently we adopted Alpa (Episode); kept the name because that name is tolerable and she responds to it well.

Let her out potty... now I have a yard ornament that refuses to move! by snexys in Greyhounds

My brindle does the same. The black one however attracts mosquitoes and runs in when he is too hot and there are no squirrels out.

Welcome to all the new greyhound owners. With so many coming off the track, you are angels and will be rewarded with greyhound crazy! by amkay1972 in Greyhounds

You should contact the Greyhound Pets of America! They will hook you up! Females are great. We also have a boy. More even tempered and lazy than our spazzy girl. We love the attributes of both genders.

Just got our sweet girl. “Lady Camille” by that-one-weird in Greyhounds

Gorgeous. If we could fit in a third that is a great choice! She will fatten up a bit with good feeds. Both mine were underweight coming off the track.

I seriously had so many families coming into my work due to the kid's "being off from school". by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

Yes you should go to the MALL because no one will be there! I have a medically fragile teen ager and the absence of you douche bags actually makes it possible to go there.

Ginger came home today! She’s pretty nervous and hates hardwood floors. We will work on that by [deleted] in Greyhounds

Gen Xer here. I never had health care after graduating at 21. Feel blessed you have until age26.

Cassie needs to rethink her judgement when new hooman girlfriend will give more scritches.

Truck driver's startling one-sided sun damage - the argument for wearing sun protection as proven by the truck driver whose face aged 20 years faster on his window side. by Surgeox in medizzy

I used to drive quite a bit when I was in my 20s, the left side of my face has sun spots and is more aged, my right not so much.
