However, small dogs, cats, and
other small household pets may appear as prey to a Greyhound and they may chase these small animals.
This gentle dog may bark at strangers but is normally friendly with visitors, and should be watched
around small household pets such as rats, ferrets, or guinea pigs.
They seem friendly with other dogs of substantial size, but because of their gaming history and the training received by dogs used for racing, they are not as trustworthy around Toy dogs and
other small household pets.
If you have
small household pets, it is also important that you introduce your Spanish Pointer as a puppy because these dogs have a naturally high prey drive.
When introducing your new greyhound to small dogs, cats, or other
small household pets, common sense and caution should rule.
