Thank you for submitting your question regarding greyhounds. This is a breed known as a sight hound and is typically bred for racing. It is a large breed and very lean dog. Adults will typically weight 60-70 pounds. They have a long narrow nose, long body with a thin tail. They come in a wide variety of colors. I hope this information helps!
