A few people in my apartment complex have greyhounds, and they seem like incredibly mellow quiet dogs when are indoors. Actually, they seem mellow and very sweet outdoors as well. I live in a state that allows racing, so there is a plentiful supply of beautiful dogs.
If you are like me, a first time dog owner, then I strongly suggest you visit several local shelters and look for adult or senior dogs.
You can judge temperament, compatibility, and personality easier on an adult, and of course size as well. Less guessing.
There will be lots of choices in all shapes and sizes. I am quite sure that if you promise yourself to visit several shelters before deciding, and ask for advice from the volunteers. Tell them about where you live, but also what you want to do with the dog, exercise etc. They will direct you to a perfect match. You will have a really compatible companion, and one that truly needs its new home.
Good luck and have fun!
