Description
Dog Breed: Greyhound. Cookies recently arrived from China and is a meat trade survivor. He had been patiently waiting a long time to come to GFNJ and we are happy to have him. He's a little reserved and will take some time to get comfortable. However, his foster family reports that after only one day, he's getting more comfortable and relaxed. We will know about Cookies but we feel that he would do best with a fenced yard and maybe another accepting dog or greyhound. Cookies is about 52 pounds and most likely a greyhound/whippet cross.

Overview:
The majestic Greyhound, an ancient breed originating in the Middle East and historically revered for its incredible speed, is a fascinating and often misunderstood companion. Renowned for their sleek, aerodynamic build, Greyhounds possess a distinctive deep chest, slender legs, and a powerful, athletic physique perfectly adapted for chasing prey. Despite their past as racing hounds, their temperament is surprisingly gentle and calm, often described as "45-mph couch potatoes." They are affectionate, quiet, and generally well-behaved, making them surprisingly good candidates for apartment living, provided they receive regular, albeit brief, bursts of exercise. Greyhounds are typically good with families, including children, and often coexist peacefully with other pets, though their strong prey drive means careful introductions are necessary, especially with smaller animals. While generally a healthy breed, potential owners should be aware of conditions like Bloat, Hypothyroidism, and certain sensitivities to anesthesia.
