Adopt A Greyhound

Dog Details

Bess

Bess is a beautiful easy going girl with a great personality.  She does well with any greyhound and is terribly fond of naps and treats!  She is amazing in how well she has learned her commands and walks so well on a leash.  But then she sees a kitty…or a squirrel…or a bird on the ground…and she goes into a freeze, all a quiver with excitement, and she wants nothing in the world more than to chase that animal!  Too funny!  So, you have to be aware her eyesight and prey drive is AMAZING and she will keep you entertained.  She is such a love bug, too!
