Greyhound buying questions
How much do Greyhound puppies cost in the UK?+
Greyhound puppies typically sell for £200–£1,000 (rehoming fees are far lower) in the UK. Prices move with health testing, Kennel Club registration, pedigree lines and location. Vaccinations, microchipping, worming and a vet check should all be included in the price.
What should I ask a Greyhound breeder before buying?+
Ask to see the puppy with its mother in the home where it was bred, request health test certificates for both parents, confirm the microchip is registered and the first vaccination is done, and check the breeder holds a council licence if they breed regularly. Never pay a deposit before visiting in person.
Is a Greyhound a good family pet?+
Greyhounds suit families who can meet their exercise, training and grooming needs. Match the breed to your home, your daily routine and the age of your children rather than to looks alone.

What age can a Greyhound puppy legally leave its mother?+
Under Lucy's Law it is illegal in England to sell a puppy under 8 weeks old, and puppies must be sold by the breeder from the place they were born, with the mother present. Walk away from any seller who will not show you the mother.
