What greyhounds are like to live with

Many greyhounds in UK rescue are retired racing dogs. The Greyhound Trust says most retire from racing between three and five years old, so a rescue greyhound is usually a young adult rather than a puppy. The Royal Kennel Club notes that the greyhound seen in the show ring is larger and heavier than the racing greyhound.

Many rescue fees are under £500: Dogs Trust charges £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.
