Yeah, my old boss had one. He had 3 dogs - a bouvier, shepherd cross and a shiba inu. The shiba was the only one that he couldn't bring to the office because it was like a wild animal. Not necessarily vicious, but very aloof, wiry and really poor recall. It was kind of what I would picture a wild fox to be like if you let it go inside a building.

The other two dogs were perfectly trained and adjusted.

Greyhounds are great around kids if you want a really kid friendly dog. Not the greatest recall or attention span, but really mellow and gentle. They don't really even jump on people or bark a lot ether.
