Are they housebroken?
Because greyhounds are trained to keep their kennels clean, housebreaking is relatively easy. Frequent walks or "potty breaks" reinforce that outside is the place to go.

Are they good with children? Other pets?
They are very social but have limited exposure to children or other animals. Due to their affectionate nature they are generally tolerant of well behaved children and can live in harmony with cats and small dogs.
