Excellent choice.....well done for choosing to 'rescue' a greyhound rather than pay pounds for a purposely bred dog.
There are at least 8,000 disposed of every year.........thank you for just thinking of reducing this statistic by one.
You'll be well rewarded, they are fantastic pets.!

Alternatively, they are appearing in all-breed rescues all the time as so many are looking for homes after retiring from racing. This link should help:

Good luck. I can tell you from experience they are a fantastic breed.
