Summary
About Greyhound
Tall, slender Greyhounds are sprinting sighthounds, built for speed yet calm indoors. They have a short, low‑maintenance coat in many colors and need soft bedding and weather protection. Gentle, sensitive, and affectionate, they suit owners who provide routine, kind training, and moderate daily exercise.
About King Charles Spaniel
Small, aristocratic toy spaniel with a domed head, short nose and large dark eyes, bred as a devoted lap companion. Calm indoors with moderate exercise needs, it thrives on constant human contact. Long, silky coat needs regular grooming; prone to heart, eye and brachycephalic‑related issues.
