To all you people who say get a rescue dog ...

Time and time again on here I read 'get a rescue dog', 'don't encourage breeding', but it is really hard to find one.

I have been looking for a while now and would quite happily travel a hundred or so miles to see the right dog, but just can't fine one. We have children, so I want something with a known non-aggressive history - just a normal family dog.

Can anyone give me any tips please? I am all googled out.

When we were ready we called up all the greyhound rescue kennels in about 50m radius and chatted with them. We explained our circumstances and asked them if they had any suitable dogs; we let them pick the dog for us, not the other way around. We felt they'd know the dogs really well and the right choice was made for us.

Our chap is loving, excellent with children (interested but not too lively) but has a terrific prey drive that needs close watching!
