How do I introduce my greyhound to the new kitten? I have a 2 yr old female greyhound, and I just got a male Ragdoll kitten. So far they've only met with the bars of a cage or gate between them. The greyhound isn't acting agressive, more like she wants to play. However, with the way she plays with her toys, I'm not sure the kitten would survive! She snaps her teeth at the kitten, which is what she tends to do when she's in a playful mood. I'm just afraid of the kitten getting hurt accidentally. Any suggestions?
How long would a greyhound be happy being left on its own? I am thinking of rehoming a greyhound. My partner and I work fairly long hours and would not consider getting any other breed of dog that requires more active attention during the day, but I understand greyhounds are happy to sleep most of the day. If someone were to come in midday to let it out for a short walk, does anyone know if the dog would then be content on its own for 4 or 5 hours before and after that midday break until either me or my partner gets home? I would not wish to take on a dog if its going to be unhappy with my lifestyle, but I also wouldn't a greyhound to miss out on being rehomed if it is feasible for me to do so.

I am planning to travel from Arizona to California by taking greyhound bus during thanksgiving (9/25/2009) at midnight.

Why is the greyhound bus service the worst way to travel? Everyone wants mass transit to save the planet but the monopoly of bus service 'greyhound' is the biggest piece of garbage company ever.

Maybe we should write our local papers and politicians, time to clean up greyhound!
How long can Valley Fever stay dormant in a greyhound before causing real heath problems? My greyhound raced in Arizona but has live in BC with us for 5 almost 6 years. She has always had minor coughing and lameness due to what we thought was arthritis. In November of 2006 she was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma (bone cancer). OS tends to take dogs quickly and we opted for pain management only but now 9 months later she has a large tumor in her right leg and is sometimes completely lame and other times looks fine and runs full speed. She eats well and most of the time is a happy dog. Someone has suggested this could be Valley Fever but is it possible almost 6 years later? Vets up here do not know of Vallet fever so i am trying to do research before bringing this possibility to them.
What happens with my ticket if I miss a Greyhound bus transfer? If I do happen to miss a transfer and have to take the next bus that makes different transfers not listed on my original ticket, what do I do?

I would especially like hear feedback from people with experience or a Greyhound employee. Thanks for your help!

What happens between a greyhound's puppy hood to a maiden race? What does the dog go through? I was told by a friend when I asked a parent to take me to a greyhound race that the practices of greyhound racing was very cruel. I looked it up, and it seems that this is true. Now, I have two questions. 1) It seems very vague about what happens before a dog's first race. What kind of training does the dog go through? Is it cruel training? 2) Is greyhound racing itself cruel in your opinion. Thank you for any information you can provide me.

How thoroughly do they check your bags on the Greyhound bus? I'm going to be riding the Greyhound bus soon from Pennsylvania to Florida and I was wondering how thoroughly they check your carry on bags, or if they check them at all?

How far is the Greyhound terminal in Washington DC from Union Station where the trains leave from? I am traveling through DC this December. I am coming in on a greyhound bus to the main station and then leaving on an Amtrak train. I need to know how far the two places are apart and generally how long of a layover to plan. I know that there is a greyhound stop at Union Station, but the bus I need to use does not stop there.

Are there shuttles or a walkway; or is a Taxi the best option?

How to best house train my italian greyhound? I have an Italian Greyhound, 10 months old. She is the sweetest dog but is having trouble 100% mastering outdoor potty training. She definately knows she is supposed to go outside as she does most of the time, but we will still catch a spot inside every few days. When we do catch her and say "No!" she will immediately stop and run outside. It almost seems to be when she gets "upset" she goes inside. Any ideas?

What are the best games to play with an Italian Greyhound? I recently rescued a 6 year old Italian Greyhound. He seems accustomed to our daily routine and comfortable with us. The only problem is he doesn't play much. He won't play with toys, fetch, or run around the yard. We can get him to run after us if we "hide" in the house, but that is about it. THEN, he stays up all night roaming around keeping us awake. What can I do to keep him active during the day so he will sleep at night?
