My Hour with a Greyhound Puppy!

Hi, I’m Steph! A DIYer, author, and podcast host. I live in Tallahassee, FL with my adopted greyhound, Tosh. She is a retired racer adopted from Greyhounds as Pets in Jacksonville, FL.
I adopted Tosh in 2020, and she was born 2017.
My first greyhound, Mac, passed away in Jan 2023. The names Mac & Tosh were a reference to my favorite computer, the Macintosh.
Every greyhound is different and I am just sharing my experience with my greyhounds. This is for entertainment purposes.

Gosh they’re a gorgeous breed. I just love how every limb of theirs is comically long

I got my greyhound as a puppy, and it's kind of stunning how they don't become the couch potatoes they are known to be until adulthood. As puppies, they're just as active as a lot of other breeds. But once they stop growing, it's naps all day every day.

I love how Tosh is the best, most conscientious babysitter ever - follows him everywhere to make sure he’s not getting into trouble 😅. Puppy is absolutely adorable, it looks like you guys had the best afternoon together! ❤

[@LCculater]

So beautiful ❤

[@ShannonSaysStuff]

Tosh is obsessed with the puppy, how cute! That couch play bow was just adorable.

[@SportsAndWeights]

Greyhounds in general are amazing but there puppies are inquisitive and full on but so cute. They are a sighthound so if they see anything move there onto it. And i mean anything. A fly. A butterfly a bird a freaking shadow. They can be so funny at times but they are very sharp and aware of there surroundings.

[@adamspence6095]

He is so cute ❤ I love him so much ❤😂

[@popkinson]

Houndies are completely addictive. Really made me laugh bumping into the camera.

[@sheilagrayman7147]

Tosch's BOW! 😅👍 Lovely!

That is one drop dead gorgeous puppy, and your beautiful Tosh, who was so good with the pup, but needed to know that you still loved her the best of course! I have a rescue black greyhound (rescued from a British racing track) called Madge - her racing name was Devil's Magic. The pup looked just like she would have done as a puppy, and I wish I could have had her then. I have had her now for 4 years, and it will be her 7th Birthday on the 20th of this month (March). She loves to sleep in the roach position, on her own double bed in her bedroom, or on the sofa downstairs, or on the end of my double bed, with me. She gets to have zoomies once a week with her best boyfriend Dobby dog, as this is a safe field near me, where I can let her off. I walk her 4/5 times a day, as I do not have a garden here, although I live in a very rural location, in West Devon, England. She makes my house my home. These are very special dogs, and very different from other breeds. Madge is very sensitive, and loves meeting new people and other dogs, but can get very over excited at times, and then jumps up in the air, and I call it her ballet moves! Thank you for this lovely video. Love to you from Jilly & Madge xxx

When Tosh barked, Dash was looking around to see where the other greyhound was! Greyhound puppies are so darn cute.

[@luther1546]

He is so cute. Greys are such wonderful dogs! Nice video!

[@SakuraBurma]

I love your videos, please keep posting Steph. Thanks.

[@AmarjitSingh-fd7jc]

Black puppy very 👍 nice greyhund Quincy

[@sinistar2358]

Had to comment because the pup looks exactly like a young version of my adopted 5 yr old grey, Winn; all black with the white chest and foot markings. I'm also a North Floridian (Jax) who kayaks frequently in an Oru. Love all your Greyhound and Kayak vids!

[@Danielfilmmad]

Lovely video. Both dogs are beautiful. x

[@fart-gravy]

The love of dogs is very powerful.

[@holthuizenoemoet591]

Sooo cute, and i know that a lot of them are in shelters in Spain, and probably also in the usa and Mexico.

[@cuttersgoose]

Yup we got Bullitt our grey at 6 weeks… as puppies they can be very aggressive, especially with other breeds around, we have 4 other dogs, and the grey is very aggressive with them as a 6 month old, I’m sure this will change once she’s older.

[@davidquerry8869]

Tosh doesn't like sharing Mommy.

[@kevinbanecker7757]

The puppers are adorable

[@Shrouded_reaper]

So jealous 😭😭😭

[@bleachedwhale]

So cute! One of my greyhounds heard the squeaky toy noises from the other room and sprang up to play. :D Thanks for the video!

[@TheJournier]

My dalmatian did the same!

[@royfoord3595]

Lovely video

[@JM-vx1rh]

🐾❤️🐾

[@trishalafleur9517]

You should get Tosh a new sibling. My husband and I love our greyhound - Niko and our Italian greyhound - Jax.

[@dnedlew]

Tosh is a little jealous 🤣🤣🤣

[@SIERRATREES]

[@cozyandsinister]

😍

[@greyhoundoakon]

My God ! Your baby very like my dog

[@FTE99699]

not creepy German speaking: you girl are very unusual! Smile that look natural to a German (i.e. extends to your eyes) is sooooo welcome :)

[@adamspence6095]

I have a greyhound and her name is Dyllis

[@anthonysabella9637]

I have a catahoula that is as lean as them but not as tall. She needs a running mate

[@shutterchick79]

Beautiful fur baby 😀. Sad that the breed is being driven to extinction by anti racing bleeding hearts. Greyhounds are such sweethearts, and dogs are so much easier to rehome than racehorses. If they were truly serious about animal rights, they'd go after the horse racing industry instead of dog racing. The only thing the dog racing industry needs in the US is oversite - rules about how they're fed, housed, trained, and what happens to them after their racing careers are done.... Perhaps a governing body of the sport that could even help with connecting dog owners with rescue organizations. The industry's problems were solvable without banning the sport... Horse racing is worse for horses than dog racing was for greyhounds...

[@suusje004]

I so understand your new pup, now Mac left a hole….

[@G0l0o0]

Its her friends dog...

[@stephaniebutler697]

​@KlapperZack actually a friend of a friend's dog! I babysat him for a whole week. Steph watched him for an hour for me while my greyhound and I were doing a therapy visit. He's a super sweet puppy, and very good all things considered. But after a week with him, I think I'll stick with adopting grown dogs!
