they are without a doubt the nicest dogs i have ever met. when i worked with them we would go to events like equestrian events and about 8 owners would bring their dogs. my job? to take care of the dogs. so while cleaning up poop for 8 hours was job too -- i got to spend 8 hours hanging out with sometimes a dozen greyhounds.

i've enjoyed very few things more in the last few years than i did spending time with those dogs.

you can stack them in a can??? just kidding.

tony says no more dogs. but i'd love to go to west memphis and adopt one. they aren't the prettiest dogs in the world, but true athletes and from all i've seen, they make wonderful pets. but you have to have a fence, and i haven't got one at the moment.

I'm not a big dog guy ( I hate animals and people equally ) but I have good friends who adopted two greyhounds, brothers actually, and they are awesome dogs. Very sweet.

The program for adopting greyhounds is really terrific.

I'm not to overly fond of most people....which is probably why I enjoy animals!
