Greyhounds and the youngsters

Hugo asks, Did you know? Growing up within a greyhound racing family, and caring for a racing greyhound can be immensely beneficial for young persons from all walks of life.

Being responsible for the well-being of a greyhound teaches discipline and promotes a work ethic while requiring minimum commitment levels essential for so many aspects of life.

Life with a racing greyhound teaches a young person that they can only expect back from anything or anyone, what they are willing to give of themselves. It teaches a young person to learn from defeat and how to remain gracious in victory, Racing greyhounds also sharpens the tools needed to cope with the highs and lows of competition, handle the emotions that each entails and how to apply those coping mechanisms to other aspects of life.

A young person learns quickly that a greyhound offers their love unconditionally, and that unspoken contract of trust between hound and carer nurtures developing traits that will be called upon throughout life. When a young person first finds a friend in a greyhound, they do indeed find a friend for a life!

If you have youngsters in your greyhound life, our kids and babies range of clothes and accessories is available on the following link 🙂
