Polish Greyhounds have short, smooth fur that comes in many colors. Their coat is somewhat heavier than a Greyhound’s, and they have an undercoat that gets thicker in the winter. Polish Greyhounds have a longer brush on the tail and have culottes at the rear of the thighs.

A large sighthound who is quiet and clean indoors; short coat, a soft house voice, and a need for safe gallops rather than a small-yard-only life.

The Polish Greyhound originated in Poland, most likely from the Asian sighthound, a Saluki type dog. They were not bred from the English Greyhound.

Health

The Polish Greyhound is generally a hardy sighthound. As with other gazehounds, use anesthesia protocols suited to lean, deep-chested dogs.
