GALTx eNews: October Is Greyhound Awareness Month!

October is Greyhound Awareness Month! We imagine most of our readers are fairly aware of Greyhounds and their quirky idiosyncrasies. But, do you ever have someone ask you about your Greyhounds and fumble for a quick response? We know we sometimes do, so here are some suggestions to help spread awareness this month:

When they aren’t sleeping, they are the fastest dog breed, reaching speeds of 45 miles per hour;

Most Greyhounds come with ear tattoos that provide information about their litter and birth date;

Greyhounds registered with the National Greyhound Association can trace their pedigree back generations to the 1800s in England;

They are the only dog breed mentioned in the Bible;

Greyhounds have a life expectancy of 12 to 14 years, longer than most large breeds;

Greyhounds come in 18 recognized colors and many variations of those colors, but gray is one of the rarest;

Greyhounds can see clearly for up to a kilometer (.6 of a mile), but might not notice a close by rabbit that isn’t moving;

Greyhounds’ blood chemistry is significantly different from other dog breeds; and

Most Greyhounds make great blood donors for other injured or sick dogs because they have a universal blood type.

Last but not least, Greyhounds still need to find forever homes. Visit our Available Greyhounds page today to see if your next best friend is waiting for you.

Fifty Shades Of GreyHOUND 💕

The Rescue Hound met up for a Valentines Themed Walk ❤️ Spreading love and licks everywhere they go, showing off just how GREYT Greyhounds are as Pets! What’s not to love about Greyhounds? 💕

Greyhounds are;

Laid Back and Easy Going; known as the 45km/hr couch potatoes!

Great for households with limited mobility; 2 twenty minute strolls a day and they are happy out!

Relatively low shedders compared to other breeds; lack of oils in the coat make for low odour too!

Not big barkers, though the GSOD is something to be aware of!

Big Dog, Small Space Requirements; Greyhounds restful nature makes them fabulous apartment pets!

Wonderful wardrobe; Due to their delicate skin and low body fat, Greyhounds feel the cold, so dressing them in all manner of colourful coats and cosy pjs is necessary and vibrant!

Foodie Furiends; Greys are known for their foodie nature, enjoying human goodies like puppaccinos, toast, snossidges and more, No fussy hounds here!

Wacky weirdos; Greyhounds are full of quirks, from roaching to docking, roping to chittering, the breed really does have something special about it!

So what are you waiting for? Add some love to your life and adopt a Greyhound!

Basta dar uma rolada no feed do seu Instagram ou digitar poucas palavras no Google e você vai se deparar com todo tipo de cachorro em ONGs esperando por uma família... cachorros pititicos, grandões, peludos, de pernas curtas ou orelhas compridas. Por que então uma pessoa, por livre e espontânea vontade, escolheria adotar um cachorro feio? Essa foi a pergunta que eu me fiz durante muito tempo. Eis que, sem querer, a resposta veio na forma de uma galgolata caramelo S2

I adopted a tall, gentle greyhound with a very long snoot and long flowing fur. I named him Avalon-Totoro.

Today, Florence played with me directly!

This is the first time she's actually acknowledged me playing with her; usually if I try and interact she submits and waits for me to leave. Today, she engaged with me and this was the result!
