The Greyhound is a very old breed of dog, a sighthound which has been historically bred for coursing game and latterly Greyhound racing. Since the rise in large scale adoption of retired racing Greyhounds, particularly in North America from the end of the 20th century, it has seen a resurgence in popularity as a family pet.
According to Merriam-Webster, a Greyhound is "any of a breed of tall slender graceful smooth-coated dogs characterized by swiftness and keen sight...of several related dogs."
It is a gentle and intelligent breed whose combination of long, powerful legs, deep chest, flexible spine and slim build allows it to reach average race speeds in excess of 64 kilometres per hour (40 mph). The Greyhound can reach a full speed of 70 kilometres per hour (43 mph) within 30 metres or six strides from the boxes, traveling at almost 20 metres per second for the first 250 metres of a race. There are a few mammals that can accelerate faster over a short distance, such as the cheetah, which can reach speeds of 109 kilometres per hour (68 mph) over 3-4 strides from a standing start, and pronghorn with an alleged top speed of 93 kilometres per hour (58 mph)

Plot: Captain Smith is spared his mutinous hanging sentence after captain Newport's ship arrives in 1607 to found Jamestown, an English colony in Virginia. The initially friendly natives, who have no personal property concept, turn hostile after a 'theft' is 'punished' violently on the spot. During an armed exploration, Smith is captured, but spared when the chief's favorite daughter Pocahontas pleads for the stranger who soon becomes her lover and learns to love their naive 'savage' way of harmonious life. Ultimately he returns to the grim fort, which would starve hadn't she arranged for Indian generosity. Alas, each side soon brands their own lover a traitor, so she is banished and he flogged as introduction to slavish toiling. Changes turn again, leading Smith to accept a northern-more mission and anglicized Pocahontas, believing him dead, becoming the mother of aristocratic new lover John Rolfe's son. They'll meet again for a finale in England.

The Greyhound is a very old European breed of dog, a sighthound which has been historically bred for coursing game and latterly Greyhound racing. The Greyhound is not an aggressive dog. Greyhounds are quiet, gentle, and loyal to their owners. They are very loving creatures, and enjoy the company of their humans and other dogs. They come in all colours. Their average lifespan is 12 years. Greyhounds live most happily as pets in quiet environments. Greyhounds have a sensitive nature, and gentle commands work best as training methods.

It provides crucial vet advice for different health issues related to pets, gives tutorials on how to train your pets from basic-to-advanced levels, and also provides comprehensive information about sp...
Horse racing’s Epsom Derby and greyhound racing’s William Hill Derby both take place on Saturday and to celebrate, William Hill organised a one-off race between two of nature’s speediest animals in an attempt to determine who comes out on top. Ferry Forth Fran, a finalist in the 2015 William Hill St Leger (one of the top staying greyhound races), was pitched in to a battle with winning thoroughbred racehorse Limerick Lord at Towcester Racecourse. Partnering Limerick Lord in the saddle was leading jockey Adam Beschizza. Towcester is a rare venue as it has both a greyhound and horse racing track, with the winning post in line with each other. So who wins? The greyhound or the horse?

Backshot is the 6th retired racer we have fostered and as usual I adore him. It's so rewarding meeting each foster dog, getting to know their personalities, and helping them prepare for a forever home. I hope you consider adopting a greyhound or other rescue dog. They need loving homes!

Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
My baby bought a ticket, can't wait to see her face
Coming back to Tennessee from a million miles away
She got on this morning
Get here this afternoon
Pick up the pace, can't get here too soon
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
(X2)
I know her phone is ringing
She can't hear the sound
Drowned out by them big ol wheels eating up the ground
Jackson Mississippi, Memphis Tennessee
Two more hours til she's here with me
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
(X2)
Lord, You've been so good to me
Faithful friends and family
No I don't deserve it Lord.
But one thing I pray
On that big ol' bus You'll keep her safe.
Greyhound, Greyhound
Get my baby back now
In one piece, safe and sound
On Greyhound
(X2)
I can't believe she's coming back home
