The Greyhound is a very old European breed of dog, a sighthound which has been historically bred for coursing game and latterly Greyhound racing. The Greyhound is not an aggressive dog. Greyhounds are quiet, gentle, and loyal to their owners. They are very loving creatures, and enjoy the company of their humans and other dogs. They come in all colours. Their average lifespan is 12 years. Greyhounds live most happily as pets in quiet environments. Greyhounds have a sensitive nature, and gentle commands work best as training methods.
Bondi Vet covers all important aspects related to pet care. It provides crucial vet advice for different health issues related to pets, gives tutorials on how to train your pets from basic-to-advanced levels, and also provides comprehensive information about specific dog breeds and their habitats.

Please adopt retired racers! They finish their careers at three, four or five years - and countless thousands are put down at that age, or simply dumped or killed. And they can live til 11 or 12. Mine is currently a very fit, healthy and handsome 12 year old. Re-homing centres and rescue centres are bulging with these beautiful gentle character-ful dogs. They deserve loving homes after their time at the track.
actually no! thousands are not put down annually. not in the U.S at least over 95 % of retired greyhounds are ether adopted or returned back to the owner /breeder /trainer for ether a pet or for breeding. and before you say how do you know. i ma friends with a woman that runs a greyhound adoption agency and her daughter is a trainer. And i currently have three as pets. sorry i don't mean to come off aggressive. but yes there are in my opinion the best dog in the world and my oldest is thirteen and very healthy. don't mean to be pushy just trying to inform the public.
We should ALL support G.A.P.!
Here in Britain thousands ARE put down. The industry has a license to destroy so many thousands per year. What happens to the litter pups that don't make it to race training, we don't hear about. You can be sure that not every single pup in every single litter is given a good home. Ireland has an even less savoury reputation for what happens to pups and retired adults. Indeed, there is documented evidence of passing on retired dogs to the meat-markets in Asia and China. Naturally I'm delighted to hear how good the situation is in your country.
Dfw Fqdefqw Personally, I don't care how it's termed. So long as the person making the comment has actually adopted a dog and is doing something about the problem.
A friend has a wonderful ex racer that he adopted at 3, now she's 9 and still very healthy. She's the calmest, sweetest dog and never barks.
I adopted a greyhound yesterday!! He is so beautiful and perfect!
Lenore Watts aww lucky
Lenore Watts greyhounds are so beautiful. Wonderful dogs!
So, do you have two by now?
How much price for dog?
I love greyhound pls help me and i want to buy one bubby pls help anybody i love it
Once you have a greyhound you never go back to another breed.....greys are so gentle....they become very attached to you-if you give them time....They love you-if you deserve it....they do not"function" like a shepherd...they obey if your commands come in a calm manner and are not screamed at them...And then there comes a time when you think.....this grey must be reading my mind...and you realize that you probably never before had such a close companion.....
I had an adopted Greyhound (retired racer). He lived to be about 14, but finally died from terminal Cancer. You mentioned how they couldn't tolerate cold, but while that may be true to some Greyts, it wasn't true for Flying Carl. He loved running and romping in the snow, and would stay out for longer periods than normal. We had a cat also, and he got along fine, and also spent time with dogs of friends. He was the best dog ever. We miss him very much. Always adopt rather than buy from breeders. There are way to many great dogs on "death row". Save a life and adopt.
My “Flying” greyhound also loves the cold. Maybe it gets chilly on the Flying Eagles darm so they’re used to it.
Greyhounds are the sweetest most odd dogs I have ever met! Unfortunately most people go into what they think is easiest and adopt a lab or something of the kind. The thing is greyhounds’ pros far outweigh the cons and here’s
Pros
-They are very cute dogs
-They’re fine with being alone during the day
-They’re couch potatoes so they don’t require walking all the time(doesn’t mean you shouldn’t walk them)
-They’re very quiet generally so you shouldn’t have to worry about them barking all night long
-They are sweet and will form a bond with you over time
-They’re generally (not always) good with small children
-If you got an ex racer they would be one of the cheapest dogs (at most places ranging from $100-$200)
-Some ex racing greyhound adoption places do things like...
De-sex them, teach them lead manners, get them registered and basically do everything you would need ,which *would* cost tonnes of money, to get a new dog
-If you adopt an ex racer you could be saving a life as some of them are put down soon or immediately after racing
-they generally don’t jump up or find their ways under things
Cons
-their prey drive (some of them don’t even have much of one and some places train them to be comfortable around other dogs)
-It’s hard to get them as puppies (only if you want a puppy)
They live about 10 to 12 years? Nope you are lying mine is gonna live Forever shut up
Miguel Lopes that’s what I thought mine had to be put sleep from a stroke
4 months shy of turning 12 I vowed I never own a hound but foster I help at a rescue 2nd week after starting this special hound got handed in and we formed a bond as he was very timid no one couldn’t get close or walk him. But he did for me so I am fostering and later adopting after he is rehabilitated in to home environment the kennel named him simba
Really?
Well your pet is gonna die
@@soupkoio6475 me to but sometimes remember the journey don't stop after they leave they could go your dog now or a young siblings
@@soupkoio6475 when u might a pet that live up to the age 90 which is your siblings lol
They are gentle and affectionate. Sleep about 18 hrs a day. Track greyhounds are essentially housebroken out of the box , but need to be taught to go up and downstairs. They have probably have never seen cats or dogs other than greyhounds, so they take some time getting used to them. They are great family pets.
Retired Greyts are cage trained. It took only one day to house train Flying Carl (my Greyhound).
The most docile and beautifully natured breed of dog
My favorite breed, have had 3 as pets. Loved them all! So nice to see well behaved children playing with them! Thank you for the video.
Don't lose the leash on a walk because you never going to run fast enough😂😂😂
Alyson Holland I LOVE GREYHOUNDS WE HAVE 3 RACERS AND A RETIED RACER YAY
One night while walking my now departed greyhound I accidentally let the lead slip through my fingers. ..to my amazement she just carried on trotting along next to me. ..After that I often let her walk off lead in quiet areas. ..even letting her run in a park. ..but I suppose it depends on the animal
Ain't that the truth!
Yeah. Tell me about it, I have To go home and get the car and when I do catch up she thinks I’m there to play😂😂
@@cherzzey omg ahahaha I’m dead 😂😂
I adopted a retired racer and I honestly couldn’t imagine life with out him
I have two ex race greys, best dogs I've ever had and i wouldn't want any other breed now. I can only stronly say consider adopting greyhounds, they are very easy to keep ♥️😍
My greyhound bindi lived until she was 15. The most gentlest softest laziest thing in the world. She loved my cats and my Jack Russell milo. Miss her like mad. Love you bindi boos x
You’re right, Ashley. I miss the greys I lost, every day, even though I have another one now. Nothing sweeter than an old greyhound.
❤️😍🐶😍❤️
I rescued a grey hound about 6 months ago. He wasn’t a race dog but he was gonna be shot cause no one would take him. The video is true about them being lazy most the day but he does have his moments of activity. Kinda sad when your doing 37 mph in a Polaris ranger checking cattle and a black streak blows by you like it’s nothing. He’s not aggressive at all and the local stores love when I bring him in. He can get a little excited and rough around my nephew but after about 30 mins he calms down and becomes a pillow. He likes to play but mostly with feet and hands and my bed is no longer “my bed” it’s his bed since he pushes me off all the time. He is awesome with other animals. Any new animal he meets is his friend but sometimes he doenst realize skunks do not like big friends and well yeah he doenst like baths and keeping a grey hound in the tub while trying to wash him is a major choir😂 gotta be careful when sitting or laying down as well. He thinks he’s a giant lap dog and will happily lay on you😂
adopted a couple of ex-racers now. Currently have an 8 year old racer and a 5 year old courser. Both from Ireland. Though I grew up with GSD and Rottweilers I would not have any other breed any more. Absolutely fell in love with Greys.
I'm getting my 4th tomorrow 🤗
DRAMA ALERT NATION I want 4 greyhounds! XD
I love and i want one bubby and bay it help me please
Oh that so cute how many do u have now still 4
had one now for 2weeks , hes a gem
I own a greyhound and she’s the nicest dog I know she’s lazy calm and awesome she’s a white greyhound with brown eyes ( she’s sick right now and may have to be put down I’m very upset and it’s hard to show that through writing) greyhounds are amazing dogs 🐕
I love my baby boy - best dogs you will ever own!
Greyhounds are synonymous with Sault Ste Marie ON Canada. We're Hound Town. Go Hounds Go!!!
Greyhounds are addictive - there´s no dog like a Greyhound!
If you live somewhere like Europe, USA, Canada, South America or parts of Asia and New Zealand that can get cold weather they should have some sort of coat or fleece when walking outside and never outside for too long
My friends Greyhound lived to 17. We have an ex racer and she's lovely.
I live in Connecticut and most people I know who have had greyhounds lived to about fourteen years old.
Greyhound is an amazing dog, especially for lazy people!!!
I had Whippets and miss all my rescues! 💛
Are fine in a house but make sure they are fenced in? Mine jumped over the fence lol
Fabulous dogs! Good advice is: if you need a coat, they will! They have Very thin coats.
Just a note: the gray grayhoubds are called BLUE, not gray. The Blues are spectacular, my favorite colour. Never had one , yet. Blacks are beautiful too. ❤
Bye everone.
I love this dog 😍😍
They are so so beautiful
That an cerment had lots of chicken ,watair and sunlight cause it has grown
And little babygirl peach too!
Must have been kept at cermet celsius and exercised at speed nervous, as well.
I have a grey hound he is the best thing I get asked a lot about because of his colouring he is pure white with a little bit of Brindle on his ears
Yas! Eye am Whippet & eye aproof of dis video! - QuarterPoundHound 🏇🐎
Whenever she says "race" I hear rice...
australians..
GET your hearing tested!
Yes, what's wrong with them?
Chin DP same😂
@@TheGreatoutdoorsAndGourmetVic Nothing is wrong, it's just an accent
"Greyhounds are closet couch potatoes" Glances at roaching greyhound taking up all of the couch. "Yeah...I think mine has exited the closet".
Will they be friendly with lap dogs?
It depends, they are usually tested to be "cat safe" and if they are cat safe they should be fine with lap dogs!
Each dog is different, most adoption agencies will let you know what's the dog personality and will meet with you before giving you a greyhound. All Greyhound I have met were really really relaxed.
Mine is extremely friendly with pretty much everyone and everything.
Two weiner dog teamed up bit her last month, she did not retaliate.
Be careful tho my oldest was OK with little dogs until my aunts lap dog bit her noes and now she holds a personal grudge on some small dogs but wont attack them more or less give them the dirty eye.
Lap dogs? They ARE lap dogs!
99% yes
Help needed! I've always wanted a borzoi (russian wolfhound) but recently i've heard they're very hard to train and overly stubborn. So now I'm considering a greyhound. I'm also a little displeased with greyhounds because i don't like how the fur feels, and if they're much smaller than borzois. I'd prefer a big dog.
Can anyone tell me which is better?
I don't think either is better than the other. Greyhounds are pretty big, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Italian Greyhounds are the smaller ones.
Get an Irish wolfhound
I’ve met some greyhounds with wiry fur, but both of mine have soft, silky fur that’s great to pet. In my experience rescues ask what’s important to you, so if you’re flexible on things like color, gender, age, etc. you could tell them your preferences are big and having a soft coat.
Got one, love it.
do grehound die after 12 years or they can live longer if taken care ?
Can you make one on Whippets? ❤
Another Canuck its pretty much exacly the same thing exept for the height and weight. Whippet are medium sized greyhound and italian greyhound are the small ones
...non ci sarebbe la traduzione in italiano?...ottimo canale! Complimenti!!!
I love this dog 😻💋👑❤💖💘love
My 10 year old greyhound that we adopted four years ago ( ex-racer named Bella if your interested ) recently passed away at least on the bright side now I’m preparing for a new puppy to be brought home somewhere around September this year I say this because he ( yes I’m getting a boy this time ) is yet to be born from a trusted breeder the parent dogs names are boo and patch who are just adorable in the pictures the breeder sent.
oh yeah nearly forgot to mention the type of dog it’s a fox terrier a less common but still amazing dog that’s a mix of dogs including the greyhound,bulldog and a couple more I forgot the names of.
My dream is to adopt a greyhound, but my boyfriend is skeptical about the breed... I wish there was a way where we could meet a greyhound or be dogsitters for one so he could see the gentle giants that they are...
a lot of Greyhound adoption groups hold meet and greats where you will meat owners that can give you tons of information about the breed. I got mine from Greyhound Pets of Arizona and do a lot of the meet and greats with my Greyhound. these meet and greats are also good for the dog as they get to hang out with there greyhound friends and meet new people. more often then not there will be a few Greys up for adoption at these meets. Once your husband gets the learn in treatment from a grey he will be sold ! I honestly feel that Greyhounds have very kind souls and you will just fall madly in love with them.
@@kevintunaley5079 Yeah I saw this! The only problem is that we live in Sweden and here we have strict animal laws so adoption events are rare and in specific areas, I've found an adoptioncenter that focuses on greyhounds from Ireland. But they are north of Stockholm and they have a lot of foster homes spread out in Sweden.. But me and my boyfriend saw the documentary "Running For Their Lives" and he changed his mind, he was so touched by it that he now is more active about discussing what kind of greyhound we would like! We can't get a dog yet sadly, but now we can plan, save money and do more research until the day comes!
@@martinasandelin1095 These dogs are very sweet in nature. if you get one fresh from the track make sure you have time to help the dog get used to being a pet. Walking them is easy as this they already know but they will "freeze" when something worries them. Some have really bad Separation Anxiety so you must work on that.
Love greyhounds♡
i got a grwyhound too he is a very unique colour
The Egyptian dog is a podenco/ galgo, not a greyhound, or am I misinformed
This is original breed from Tamil Nadu called as sippiparai or kanni.. Foreigners mixed with thr dogs n made it hybrid n telling it as came from European country.
0:22 this is not a grey, it´s a whippet........
Hey y'all, I want ask everyone to please consider adopting, saving the life of a Galgo or Greyhound. Scooby Medina, Galgos del Sol, Galgos del Sur among others are doing great work helping animals that are abused, tortured to death. Feel free to reach out to them, donate, save one of these sentient beings. Much luv 🤍
may I know difference between greyhound - mudual hound - Rajapalayam hound...?????
greyhound : origin in Britain, fastest sight hound with between 70/80 km/h , not a lot of stamina and no watch dogs
Mudhol Hound: origin in India, working hound, combines speed with stamina makes reasonable watchdog, catches and kills game, not overly friendly to strangers.
Rajapalayam Hound Origin India, big heavier and stronger than the Mudhol, used for boar-hunting, good guard dog, acts rather independently, is a one-person dog, more a trotter than galloper
I’m getting one
Want to buy greyhound female
This good
Are greyhounds starting to become endangered or something? I live in Colorado, and I never see them.
Probably
No, They’re just used as race dogs mainly. Most are put down after their careers are over but some do go up for adoption
@@USA-ht6gv Sorry to burst your bubble but this is just not true, Greyhounds enjoy a 95% adoption rate which is by far the best out of all breeds of dogs. the other 5% the kennels / owner keeps.
Please Australia . Join the rest of the developed countries and BAN dog racing.
HamelinSong still legal in the United States 😪
Why? Dogs love racing.
I think the point she is making is the way in which the industry deals with the ones that dont make the grade.
They never asked to race did they? No, the human race wants it.
What is grayhound price? 😭😭
Nilesh Kapurkar We got both of our greyhounds for about 250 USD each.
got two for about 400 €
Is it possible to teach him to chase only wild animals like hares, rabbits, pheasants but not pets?
Yes. Nearly all dogs will chase rabbits but leave pets alone.
If they ever get out, consider it a goner. My neighbor has had two greyhounds escape.
@orphan 200 if the dog races out in front of traffic, microchips will only enable them to find the owner and let them know, doesn't keep them safe from harm
I LOVE TO HAVE ONE...
Is This Alanah Pearce narrating?
punjabi racing dog food and care please detale
They remind me of horses when wearing a rug
You shoulda slapped a bus in the intro
Too bad i live in borneo Indonesia, i really want them.
Pls give one greyhound bubby pls
Dont they have serious leg problems after some years?
Nope. They won't suffer from hip problems like many dogs do.
Some do have minor hock problems
Lots of them do because of all the stress that has been placed on their bones and joints through racing. Unfortunately they are also prone to bone cancer and it's one of the biggest killers of Greyhounds. :(
I am sorry, but the hometown of Greyhounds is the Maghreb
Algeria Morocco Tunisia Libya especially in Algeria
It wasnt greyhounds in Egyptian texts.... it was the ibizan hound
Pharaoh Hound actually but Cleopatra had Greyhounds for pets, Cheetahs too
@@kevintunaley5079 True. And I think the Ibizan hounds are the closer you can get to a Pharaoh hound
mare kol v racing dog a
Didn't i do it for you?
Do you think this is:
Ugly
Or
Cute
Btw many people think they are ugly cause they are skinny and have no hair or something but that does not mean I think they are ugly
Will be my next adoption
If you’re considering it you may want to do some research on the suggested timeline of your local rescue(s). If you’re in the US, there’s a surplus of greyhounds to adopt right now with the legislation in Florida and the closing of the last track in Alabama, but they’re predicting a shortage after those dogs are homed. The rescue I work with has been homing retired dogs from Alabama for years, and they don’t know where they’re going to get them anymore after all the current dogs are placed.
30 minutes exercise? Yeah right, more like 10
Really, Bondi, you support Greyhound racing. You need to educate yourselves!
Or perhaps you do ? I have an idea for you. Watch paint the trail video's right here on youtube and get an inside look at the racing industry. What you will learn is most of what people have told you about the racing industry is just outright lies. I have never been to a greyhound race in my life so I am not pro or against I just hate people who lie.
Kevin Tunaley who really knows? The racing companies will say “these animals are treated with great care and love racing” people against racing will say “these animals are abused”
Well i have two grayhounds one of them live up to 15 year how ? U must be living. Ur making me feel dumb am I mis counting
My greyhound bindi lived until she was 15.
Bondi had a chance to educate the public on how deplorable the greyhound racing industry is instead of showing it as the thing greyhounds were meant for.
Oh dear, more false information. They did not come from the middle east. The hounds on the tombs, etc are more likely to be pharoah hounds or salukis.
Greyhounds also feel the heat badly and can over heat if over exercised.
The muzzles were for during the race. They run with mouths open to draw in more oxygen and any accidental contact can rip their very thin skin. Also the muzzle will stop injuries should they catch the lure.
The video itself, the most disturbing is the child hugging (with death grip) the hound around the neck. Dogs do not like this - some will put up with it, others won't and will warn. The body language of the poor hound in the video was not comfortable at all.
Bondi Vet, please be more vigilant with your videos and commentary.
I hate greyhound racing😡😤
They sleep all day
Most of the day, yeah, but will be up to go for a walk in the blink of an eye.
I think, when i move
To a House,. I want adopt
Two or more
The like me, individual
Sensitiv, fast
Im a sprinte too were
OK
This dog came from bangladesh.
We are the real owner.
Do not say rabbits to them
What u mean cheater. A cheater is not a dog.
They look like great dogs. I wonder if the race dogs have been given all kinds of steroids and drugs though
I really liked your post. Greyhound's make the best pets. I made a post " More Than Just A Dog ". Check it out I think you might like it,
oi
Dog racing is a CRUEL industry, so please don't participate in it. Adopt a greyhound, wonderful dogs.
