When I was a child we adopted a retired brindle greyhound. We took her to the beach every Sunday for the afternoon, family day at the beach ( not this beautiful ocean just a river, but there was land and she could really get her speed up.) She would run like she was reliving her glory days. Running in circles, just happy to be free. She dug holes, in a shady spot of our back yard, but she would circle them three times then tuck herself the smallest size. That was back in the 1970s. She lived to the age of 17, Thanks for reminding me how awesome friend Sheila (a.k.a Peas & Rice) was.

Back in '93 my wife & I adopted a black greyhound we named Commander! He was only 2 when we got him because he wasn't fast enough for racing!! We had an acre of flat back yard. Every morning he would eat his breakfast go outside & poop & pee and run around the yard like a jack rabbit! He was beautiful to watch! Next door was a women & she had a horse she used to work with in her corral & would run the horse around it & Commander would run with her every time! She had her running partner right next door! He lived to 13 which was pretty good! We still miss him & his best friend Chloe our standard Poodle. She was the brains & he was the dim-witted side kick!!

I loved how she brought forth thousands of years of knowledge... to dig a hole in the sand to find a cooler place to rest in... just as her Egyptian ancestors would have done. Just like my old rescue dog digs a hole in the comforter at night before snuggling in behind my wife's legs. Thanks for giving this lovely girl a new life!

No one can watch this without "feeling" her pure joy and excitement ... You can literally see her thinking about how the sand feels and just how fast she might be able to go on it!

The first time I took her to the beach I hadn't thought about it in advance. When we got to a river flowing into the ocean, she waded in panting from running and drank like a fiend. I'd heard that fresh water flows on top of salt water when they meet, so I hoped for the best. But on the way home in the car, she produced an enormous sea-water barf. That was the last time I took her to the beach without drinking water in my daypack.

This is timeless. She is a beautiful dog with beautiful love from her family. This is how dogs should be. Happy and loved.Thank you.

I bet she was running faster than any of her times in her racing career. She looks so happy to be free to live the life she deserves😊

Her smile after running, and especially after digging her nest, was perfect! She so deserves this freedom to enjoy life. ❤

When I was 18 I had a red Irish setter named Koosh. I often took him to a beach near Adelaide. One time he got so excited that he flew out the car window before I could park it and he was gone. Down the beach chasing seagulls, so intent that he ignored me even though he was the best trained dog I have ever had. I walked, jogged down that beach for about three kilometres to catch him. There he was trotting back to me through a crowed of families with a seagull in his mouth. the bird was screaming his tail was wagging and he came straight to me and sat at my side as trained. I asked him to give and he dropped the seagull at my feet. It shook itself and just flew away, he was so happy that he had finally got one and I was happy to put him into my car and go home.

I used to volunteer at a shelter walking the dogs. The lurchers and greyhounds were the sweetest, most affectionate guys and girls but I couldn't let them off the lead. It's very satisfying seeing one being able to run free.

You only see true joy like this in dogs and babies. I was smiling ear to ear watching her. Best. Day. Ever!

I totally agree on the water aspect. I always have to bring water for my dog while at the ocean beaches. He will drink salt water otherwise. And ocean water will make them sick if they have too much. And tbh, I was starting to get worried about this fella with the amount she drank. Need to keep them filled with water to the point they won't look at the salt water other than to splash around in. The collapsible bowls along with a bottle works wonders.

Nothing more beautiful than seeing a greyhound running full flight on a beautiful beach like this! I don't have anywhere to take my greyhounds to run other than a dog park, which I don't like as they're usually crowded with other dogs and many who misbehave and start fights. Thank you for posting this lovely video. Your gorgeous dog was having the time of her life!!!

I love that you give her that total, secure freedom. I could almost feel her excitement.😊

What a beautiful looking dog!! Fast as lightning, all power and muscles, i could watch her all day! Thanks!!

I remember the combined thrill and absolute terror of watching my two Borzois running the first time I let them loose in my horse pasture. I relived that watching Fairy fly. I was pretty sure the fencing was secure enough to keep my dogs in, but seeing how fast they were, I knew if they got out, they could be gone miles away in minutes. But gods, sight hounds are beautiful when they run! Fairy had such a great time. She's such a happy dog. 💙

Thank you so much for sharing… I am a 24 hour caregiver and watching that beautiful dog run free was so uplifting. Her excitement and freedom gave me just a few moments of freedom myself.

Makes me cry to see Fairy so happy.Long time ago a young man had a female greyhound training her for the track,I admired this little dog told him if she failed PLEASE notifier me as I wanted her as a companion dog,because she and I got on very well.............he never did he had her put down.....I cried when I heard about it, poor little grey may she run free in heaven.

She's living her best life now.....free to run and play.....enjoy every moment with her ❤❤

It reminds me of my hound’s first trip to the beach in Cornwall. He loved it and we have some great pictures from the day. He’s 12 now and has dementia so won’t be going to the beach again. When I see him dreaming, I like to think that he’s reliving some of our lovely days together like that.

OH my goodness, this is REALLY spectacular. Your baby is a dancing marvel and so happy that you shared this terrific and joyful time. Those circles, that is the orbit she maintains to keep you in her sights.

She's so sweet! People often asked me how I managed to teach my grey boy such good recall and truth is I didn't. He just loves being close to his pack, his retriever brother and people. We rescued him as a puppy and he still likes running in very similar circles, I think it's because they've such a long stride they need a big curve to change direction at top speed.

Such a joy to see her run! I bet she slept well that night! 🤣

Oh, I do miss my Greyhound. Her name was Nunzia. She passed away Nov. 26, 2022. She was about 12 1/2. She loved to run at the beach, especially the dog beach in Santa Barbara California. If you caught it when the tide was out, the dogs had about 2 miles of wide open beach to run and play.

It makes me cherish the little fella we have now even more. They’re so much better than humans 😂

We have three ex-racers. It is said to never let them off leash in the city and urban areas as they don't know what to do with the freedom and may just take off and get lost. It is reassuring to see you and your friend sharing freedom together at the beach. Congratulations and may you have many years of such enjoyment. Beautiful beach, by the way!

Sense of freedom is so important to all spices, just to feel free and happy thank you for given Fairy to feel what it means to be free and just happy!!

I love watching a big dog run! Love her color and eyes! I never doubted she would come back! I think she circled to stay near you, not her racing career.

She makes the beach look very small indeed. What a wonderful day for her and hope you both have many more.

Nothing makes me smile quite as much as watching a greyhound on a first visit to a huge sandy beach where they can run to their heart's content. Their sheer joy is almost tangible. When we let our grey off for the first time on a beach in Lincolnshire he was beside himself with excitement and we worried whether he'd come back but he just ran round in huge circles, splashing through the water - wonderful memories! Thank you for posting.

If a dog feels loved, cared for, and able to do their "job," they'll always come back. Fairy was bred to run, so running is her job. Great to see you letting her "do her thing." She looks happy. Good job!

A wonderful sight! Running free, enjoying the wind, the sea, the smells, digging, splashing loving life to the full❤

How glorious to see her run in freedom and with joy! It made my heart happy to watch your beautiful girl.

This made me smile. Her happy jumps brought tears to my eyes. So lovely to see her having fun.

The one dog I ever had - a mongrel - we once took with us to the Ayrshire beach at Culzean. He met a red setter there and they just had the time of their lives, racing round and round. At one point our dog leapt over a low wall, not realising there was a 3 metre drop on the other side to a burn. He emerged unscathed. Such a day!

I had a Doberman that I used to allow to run free on my nearby beach. It's a mile and a half long. She used to run it full tilt and be back to me before I'd covered the first 100 yards. It's fantastic to observe the speed and power if these dogs running and although my Doberman wasn't anywhere near as fast as a greyhound, she could certainly cover some distance in a hurry. Great experience for both if us. But like you said, safe environment and trust in the dog to come back.

She loved this! What a beautiful beach. It's so funny when they taste salt water for the first time. So much water and not a drop to drink. Did you bring fresh water with you? She must have been thirsty after all that running. I noticed she kept trying to drink the salt water.

My Wife and I enjoyed your video and so did our dog, she watched intently and barked occasionally , the dog that is.

Oh how I love this! She’s absolutely gorgeous and her excitement just keeps building. Takes me back 40 years remembering our rescued Greyhound and how she loved to run flat out. She also loved all the schoolchildren when we’d walk our daughter home from school. Wonderful dogs!

When I take my whippets to the beach for a romp, they snooze for a week! It doesn’t take much to wear out a sprinter! So wonderful for her to be able to play and dig on her own terms!❤

You are such a good puppy Mom, you can just see how she loves you. She will come back to her Mom. Rescues always know who their people are! Look at her run! Thank you for giving her a new special life. This is so good for her to run like the wind ❤❤❤❤ PS. She LOVES the beach!!
