A greyhound would never see them when they are racers, so they wouldn't see them until they were 2, 3 or more years old.

Some can never cope with them.

That's too funny. My greyhound gets half way across the kitchen floor, then turns around and backs in the rest of the way.

Snowy's so cute. When we first had our rescue greyhound he ran up the stairs and didn't know to come down them. So my husband taught him! Now he races up and down them like a little hoolie.

Cute! I have a theory: are greyhounds never exposed to stairs? Maybe that's why he didn't know how to climb them.

Unbelievable. I owned Snowy when he raced at Monmore Green and found him what I thought was a good home when he retired. Obviously something went wrong there. Thank you both for looking after him in his final years. It is a relief to know he was loved and looked after.

Man, those stairs sure are scary. Maybe if I don't look directly at them.

Snowy you were wonderful! So sorry to hear you also lost Honcho (saw them both on Doggysnaps). Run free at Rainbow Bridge both of you - you were both really handsome lads.

@weimaranergirl greyhounds are supposed to be skinny like that. it's how they are built and if they get too heavy it is extremely bad for their joints and can be very dangerous.

Thanks for sharing! We have three greyhounds and they are fabulous and so funny.
