Thank you. We were lucky he was waiting on us. He has actually fattened up. 85 lbs now. Loves to run still. We throw toys in the backyard. What power when he runs! Bring him back inside and he flops on his bed! He is the best!
@greyhoundlover572 my friend races greyhounds. She is one of the few that doesnt abuse hers. If they dont win, they still get as attention as the others, they just train a little more. They take them swimming, take them hiking, all kinds of fun things that will give them a decent amount of exercise they stop when the dog gets tired and stops playing.
I don't mind racing, the dogs love it. The only thing that is bad is how the owners and trainers treat the dogs sometimes and what happens to them after. I've met a few people who race greys and they treat their dogs like kings then they are rehomed into loving families.It's just some people. Love greyhounds they are amazing loving dogs :)
I have a greyhound, he's my second, and honestly, greyhounds shouldn't have to go through this. They're too delacte, and they're so sweet. A lot still get put down after they retire. We need to stop that. SAVE THE GREYHOUNDS!!!!!!!
Everyone thinks that the racing is the horrible part "Greyhounds shouldn't race, it's just cruel." That's not it. I rescued a greyhound and you'd think that they would stop running, but i literally had a ring around my backyard from my greyhound running around over and over again. I didn't force him. They really do love it. But it's the cruel trainers that stuff them in tiny cages. He had scars from rubbing up against a small crate. He's much better now. R.I.P. Forbes
@chillyman99 It may or may not be true that Greyhounds are the second fastest land animal. The Pronghorn Antelope (though not actually an antelope) has been clocked faster.
granted there are greyhounds that are abused or neglected but the people that are saying ther torchered are forgeting what they were bred for running . Granted im sure they would prefur a home to a crate but greyhounds love running whether its lure coursing , racing or chasing something in a field ther doing something they love.
The funny thing is, it's not natural skill. Humans bred fast dogs since the time of egypt for hunting and racing. We created a racing machine and got a loving pet too. Many of these dogs will go to amazing homes after they retire or may stick around for breeding. Good, honest breeders will treat their dogs like kings and care for them.
What may happen to these dogs when their career is over certainly is disturbing, but there are many rescues and thousands of people who adopt out these dogs. To those who say it is torture, or abuse, I say you can't make an animal run, and they do it because they love it. Greyhound racing is similar to horse racing. Try making a 1200lb animal do something it doesn't want to do...kind of hard. This is an industry, same as horse racing, and a load of PETA people aren't going to shut it down.
i think after they race they should all get a rabbit and the winner should either get 2 rabbit or a large rabbit and a few pieces of cat food or a bone
lol at the people who think they abuse the dogs. do you know the price of maintenance for one of these guys? not to mention that the owner wants to win. they know that if they abuse their dog, it WONT win. Every owner ive seen takes EXTRAVAGANT care of their dogs, as their career often lies on them.
Greyhounds are at a disadvantage even before they are born. Tens of thousands are bred annually-many more than are needed to race-in an attempt to create the fastest dogs.
There is still a thriving community, if you know where to look! I found these comedy videos of talking greyhounds recently, they're hilarious! th-cam.com/users/thedogumentary?feature=results_main
I made a 3 minute podcast as part of my radio work. The title is Should Greyhound Racing be banned? I argue why it shouldn't be banned! Have a listen - as I am willing to hear both sides of the argument. Check out my channel and click on the link to my webpage to check it out!
These dogs are amazing...its just sad and a shame how stupid people take advantage of their natural skills to get money and they dont think twice about the animanl...

what, horse racing are much better, "normal", even dough jockey are sitting on horses back and hitting him the hole race. Dogs racing are one of the best animal sport that exist.
a pure gamepitbull loves to fight thats why they bred for.. they got proffessional care and trainiongs too but is that a good life for a dog? the races are too much for the dogs they breed the freakest fastest greyhound to put m in the race! the greyhound have a trauma to only go crazy for the racesss... a good life for a pet is relaxin in good condition plays with everybody without to much nervous care.. i hope that y'all now realize that greyhound races abuse!!
I LOVE how some people look down on the animal rights activists, saying they give too much credit to the animals' thinking, feelings, and hooray we let them out five times a day, etc...and here we witness them keeping them in cages all their days in order for people (most of them not wealthy) to spend their money on them running around in a circle. How dumb is that? Why don't you all run around in a circle, and put your well-earned money on that instead?
Thank you. We were lucky he was waiting on us. He has actually fattened up. 85 lbs now. Loves to run still. We throw toys in the backyard. What power when he runs! Bring him back inside and he flops on his bed! He is the best!
my aunt adopted two of them. we can only hope that someday all the retired racers will get loving homes.
such a beautiful breed.
I have never seen something like this before! That was pretty funny!
oh man thumbs up if you listened to greyhound while watching the race!
HOLY shit ! look at dog number 4. that's sick
thank you
i'm comparing it to the track i run on to try and get a feel for how fast these dogs are

4:00, there they are racing finally.
I have a greyhound, he's my second, and honestly, greyhounds shouldn't have to go through this. They're too delacte, and they're so sweet. A lot still get put down after they retire. We need to stop that. SAVE THE GREYHOUNDS!!!!!!!
shame greyhound racing isn't as popular anymore
oh man i laughed so hard at the one where the dog trumps!

how far are these races?
Race starts at 03:45. Your Welcome.
and these dogs are physically built for speed...what's wrong with using that for a pastime? same thing for horse racing! they LIKE it!
trés beau
They were bred that way so they could run quickly while coursing.
i didnt know that they were the 2nd fastest land animal on earth
@ginita105 But you cannot really compare the actual race, because unlike the dogs the horses are forced to run like crazy.
U can never really tell which one will win isn't it!!!
i believe they can reach UP TO 45mph in about 1-2 seconds
I would like to see greyhounds vs usain bolt and greyhounds vs cheetahs

@casper20096 im not kidding.
@tomimpey100

@JSAN1D4D Unlike football or basketball, of course.

@tomimpey100 Lol you said wankers
lol at the people who think they abuse the dogs. do you know the price of maintenance for one of these guys? not to mention that the owner wants to win. they know that if they abuse their dog, it WONT win.

@greyhoundlover572 .....just cause a few bad apples does it doesn't mean the whole industry does it to their dogs.....just sayin....

poor dogs
This sad
If I find out that I'm going to be a dog in my next life, I'll just beg not to be a pit bull in America or a Greyhound in the UK
Also, if there are no animal welfare concerns then why are the RSPCA among others so concerned.
NO
