arting companion life, our hounds have been used to going to the toilet whenever and wherever they like. Luckily, most greyhounds are very easy to toilet train, but timing and management is essential. They’re like a puppy in terms of experience, so keep that in mind as you begin your journey with them.
Positive reinforcement is key to force-free training, but it can be a bit tricky when your hound is wearing their muzzle
Being unsettled at nighttime is a not-uncommon issue when settling a new hound into your home. Here are some practical suggestions to try if your hound is being unsettled at bedtime or overnight.
Your new hound may not know their name, but teaching them is not hard, in fact it is a great way to bond with them and to give them lots of positive reinforcement.
Many greyhounds have never encountered stairs before. Other dogs learn this skill as a puppy when they are fool-hardy and fearless.
It is important to keep in mind that your new Greyhound has likely never seen any other breeds of dogs before, so it may take them a while to recognise them, time and patience as well as positive training methods can help to overcome reactivity.
