Hello
Greyhounds in need have a few shows in the summer, but I warn you the competition is tough as I take my Marlene!!!!! see picture below.
If you keep an eye on this link, they add the shows on as and when arranged, could be a good chance to see if your girl likes showing...
Firstly congratulations on thinking about adopting a greyhound. They are the best pets you can have, not that I am biased. Why not have a chat with your local rescue and explain your situation and see what they can come up with. For all you know someone near you may have a greyhound that...

My lot were so excited when they heard you were getting another greyhound, they has their bags packed and were asking for the car keys. I had to explain very gently that you were getting an Italian greyhound not a full sized greyhound. They are all now sulking and muttering darkly about moving...
I foster for greyhounds in need, and last year I had a Galgo for 4 months while he was waiting for his forever home he was a lovely dog and heart breakingly handsome. So easy baring in mind the lack of care they receive in Spain, my greyhounds adored him.
How Greyhounds in need work is the...
I have no experience in these matter but can only imagine how I would feel if this happened to one of mine, but wanted to know I am wishing you well and hoping for the best
