The first knowledge of the Greyhound comes from the Tomb of Amten, in the Valley of the Nile which was regarded by Egyptologists as belonging to the Fourth Dynasty between 2900 and 2751 BC. The carvings in this tomb show dogs of the Greyhound type in three separate scenes. In two of those scenes, the Greyhound was attacking a deer. In the third scene the Greyhound was shown attacking an animal similar to the mountain goat.

Greyhounds came to America in the early 1500's by Spanish explorers to guard, hunt, intimidate and punish their enemies, which at that time were the Indians.

Greyhounds were among the earliest breeds in American dog shows. The catalog of the first Westminster Kennel Club dog show in 1877 includes 18 Greyhound entries.

Greyhounds have a definite prey instinct. They tend to chase anything that moves quickly. Due to this, many are not suitable to live with cats.

The Greyhound coat is short and smooth and can by any color or combination of colors. Grooming is very minimal, bathing as needed and weekly brushing as well as nail trimming and ear cleaning.
