They stand between 24 and 31 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh between 50 and 90 pounds, females generally being smaller than males. Greyhounds come in a variety of colors including black, red, blue (gray), fawn, various shades of brindle and all of those colors broken with white.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"textColor\":\"black\",\"fontSize\":\"normal\"} --><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-normal-font-size\">There is nothing unique to Greyhounds that prevent them from getting along with other pets and children. In fact, Greyhounds are often more gentle and more patient than many other breeds. However, while peaceful by nature, adult supervision is the key to integrating them into families with small pets and children.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"textColor\":\"black\",\"fontSize\":\"normal\"} --><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-normal-font-size\">Greyhound ownership is a serious responsibility. Our policy is to ensure that anyone who adopts a Greyhound will be capable of, and willing to, accept that responsibility.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For centuries Greyhounds have been bred to hunt by outrunning their prey.
