Despite being great runners, they don’t need a huge house like you might imagine, just regular exer cise. There is much to rec ommend about these sleek living W ouldn’t he look good by your side? sculptures— they aren’t known as chewers or diggers, they’re very playful and affectionate, yet they also sleep a lot. A nd because they’re carefully bred to be good racing dogs, they lack many of the health problems such as hip displaysia that more popular, overbred breeds suffer from. Greyhound Pets o f Am erica also brings dogs ready for adoption to area Petco and PetSmart stores most Saturdays. For more information or a schedule of those store visits, call 800-366-1472 or visit the Internet site www.open.org/greyhnd.
