Greyhound racing - C/D?

so...Florida betting is banned. I've heard 8,000 greys will need homes if anyone is looking for the best giant lazy pets in the world.

I can't comment on Florida, but when I used to be betting shop manager in the 90's I can remember a multitude of grisly stories popping up in the Racing post/Sporting Life about unscrupulous trainers dumping the poor dogs that don't make the grade into shallow mass graves on various sand banks or dumping their mutilated corpses at the side of motorways near the Perry Barr track.

the conditions of the kennels they are kept in when they are making the grade is usually bloody horrible too.

really fancy getting a rescue greyhound, unfortunately afaik they tend to have quite the prey instinct generally and i have a cat

in the uk, from what i've heard

yeah that is fucking horrifying

do it jim! I have two cats and my dog shows zero interest in them. a majority of the greyhounds do have the prey drive, but the agencies cat-test them when they are fostered and can tell you which ones won't chase cats at all.

best pets

they really are angels

I've been around some before, gentle wee sweethearts so they are

I've never met an aggressive one in my life and there are about 4 regulars I pass on a daily basis, beautiful dogs.
