GREYHOUND
Adopting the Racing Greyhound
Cynthia A. Branigan
Foreword by Cleveland Amory
People who adopt an ex-racer spare an
intelligent, elegant creature from either
being destroyed immediately or sold for
research. This book discusses virtually
every situation the adopter is likely to
encounter. Includes both the proud history
of this oldest of purebred dog families and
fascinating stories from adoptive families.
