Clever tips for a happy hound

Want to make life with your greyhound even smoother? Here are some clever tips to keep your hound happy!
The Double Bed Trick
Greyhounds LOVE to stretch out! If your hound is ignoring their bed, try placing two side by side for ultimate lounging luxury.
Sunbathing Safely
Greyhounds adore sunbaking, but their thin coats mean they can get sunburnt! A shady retreat and pet-safe sunscreen on exposed areas (like pink noses!) keep them comfy.
Toothbrushing Cheat Code
Not all greyhounds love a toothbrush! Try gauze wrapped around your finger with dog-safe toothpaste—it’s a gentle and effective alternative.
“Statue Mode” on Walks?
Some greyhounds freeze on walks—it’s their way of processing new sights! Instead of pulling, try turning in a small circle or using a happy voice to encourage movement.
“Slow Down, Buddy!”
If your greyhound eats too fast, pop a tennis ball in their bowl. It slows them down and makes mealtime more engaging!

Meet Mia, a friendly and affectionate greyhound who's bursting with enthusiasm! This extroverted girl loves people and can't get enough attention - she's always eager to please and shower her humans with affection. With her bubbly personality, Mia's sure to bring joy and excitement to her forever home. Mia's looking for a household where she can be the only dog, and she's suitable for families with or without kids aged 10+. While she's a wonderful companion, Mia's still working on her manners, so she'll need a patient and understanding owner to help her learn and grow.
