I can confirm that they are couch potatoes.
I've got a mix greyhound, DNA test pending. It appears mostly greyhound.
As others have said, sleeps 20 hours a day, definitely couch potatoes. Until it is go-time, then it is uncontainable energy.
Also, like the lady says in OP link, mine definitely has a favorite human. Wherever my wife is, the dog is. When I come home, some normal dog excitement. When my son comes home, some normal dog excitement. When my wife comes home, the dog has already been watching through the window for an hour, waiting very anxiously and whining, and then completely flips out when she walks in the door. I don't know if this is a greyhound thing in general?

Friend of mine had a rescue greyhound. They are much faster than other dogs and they do sleep most of the time.
My daughter got an Aussie rescue. She was a beautiful merle, but was very timid and didn't know how to play. You could tell her to bring a ball to you and she would do it, but if you then threw it, she'd just look at you like "I just gave it to you, why did you throw it away?" She didn't understand the concept of tug-of-war either. She was very spacey, but also very sweet once she warmed up to you.
My wife gave her some turkey at Thanksgiving and immediately became her favorite person.
Have always wondered what she would have been like had she had a good human from the beginning. Apparently, she had just been tied up outside with very little interaction from anyone.
