5 out of 5 stars Greyt Book!   January 5, 2007

If you are considering adopting a greyhound this book is a must. It is a very easy, well organized volume on greyhound information. I have found it to be very helpful to me.


5 out of 5 stars Great Training Ideas!   August 26, 2006
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've enjoyed this book very much. I do not currently own a greyhound, but I'm doing my research to prepare for a time when my lifestyle is more conducive to owning a dog.

This book was a great help and a very enjoyable read. It answers my questions about diet, lifestyle, where the dog's coming from (in terms of how life is in the racing kennels,) introduction to your home, dog health and so much more. The book is simply a gem for dog training information. It has a lot of helpful tips.

It's not the Bible on greyhounds, dog training, feeding or any of the topics it covers, to be sure, but it's a great little volume with the basics you need to know about owning a greyhound. It's easy to read in a reference sort of way, as in, you can look up and find very specific things, but it's also fun to just read it straight through, as well.

Hope this review helps you to decide whether this book is right for you!

This book was an excellent resource specific to this kind of dog. We've had dogs for years but greys are a little different. Great advice and tips.


5 out of 5 stars A Must for All Grey Owners   July 10, 2006
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This book is outstanding, and a must for Greyhound owners. I've had my Grey for over 5 years, and had bought many a book, but this is surely the most resourceful of them all. This book offers a great quick reference for everything you can think of happening with your hound. I recommend to all owners, and think you will be satisfied.
