Kids & Dogs 2 How big do greyhounds get?
Most greyhound males stand 26 to 30 inches tall at the shoulder, and weigh between 65 and 85 pounds. Females stand 23 to 26 inches tall at the shoulder, and weigh 50 to 65 pounds. Although the average greyhound consumes up to two pounds of food per day at the track, they burn off excess weight when they run, so are naturally thin and carry little body fat.
