Characterized as gentle, independent, and noble, Greyhounds and other Sighthounds make great family dogs. Despite being known for racing, Greyhounds are actually one of the most laid back breeds. Although they are a larger breed, they are incredibly clean, low-maintenance, and affectionate. They also make great apartment dogs! Give them love and a warm place to sleep, and they’ll repay your kindness by becoming your best friend for life.
