Trust makes greyhounds a pet subject
The trust, which homes greyhounds at the end of their racing careers, will have a stand at Pets at Home in Clifton Moor, York, on Saturday and Sunday.
Karen Fraser, from the trust, said: "This is a great opportunity for people who are considering a dog as a pet to come down, meet some of our own pet greyhounds and find out a bit more about what is involved in owning one as a pet.

"They only need two 20 minute walks a day, so they are easy dogs to keep. And, contrary to popular belief, many greyhounds can be found sharing homes with cats and other breeds of dogs."
