Greyhounds and Lurchers as family pets
At any one time Dogs Trust has about 2,000 dogs waiting for new homes. Sadly, many of these are Greyhounds and Lurchers. The abandonment of these dogs is a common problem also faced by many other animal welfare charities.
They make wonderful pets, as thousands of owners will testify. If at some point you consider adopting a rescue dog, you will hopefully know enough about them to choose one as your new companion.
