Character

Greyhounds are calm and sociable indoors, to the point where they can even be considered lazy. These dogs are intelligent, sensitive, bond strongly with their own people, have tremendous stamina, and do not bark much. Greyhounds are not particularly vigilant.

Indoor Dog

Greyhounds have virtually no body fat, so outdoor temperatures to either extreme are not tolerable to them on a full-time basis. Even if you do live in a house with a large fenced yard, the dog will have to live indoors.
