France Gilmour (Vineland, NJ United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Guide to Adopting an Ex-Racing Greyhound: History, Training, Grooming, Health, Feeding, Temperament (Paperback)

I borrowed this book from a friend and after reading (and re-reading) its beautiful pages I was convinced I needed to adopt a greyhound. This book was very informative and the pictures just make you fall for these wonderful animals! I recommend the book to anyone wanting to find out more about greyhounds and to see if they would be right for your home.

This book provides a good overview of what to expect if you should choose to adopt a retired racing greyhound. It also gives advice on how to keep a greyhound healthy. Overall, a good book to read before you make the decision to adopt. A bonus is the beautiful photos!
