Expanded Description:
Those who adopt an ex-racer have spared an intelligent, elegant dog from either immediate destruction or eventual destruction in a research laboratory, but if the adopter does not know how the dog was trained, fed and cared for during its track life, and how to modify or change these practices, then the result will be an unhappy owner and an unsuccessful adoption. Topics covered: how to choose the right dog for you, preparing the home, feeding, grooming and training, equipment, having fun with your new dog. Also touches on history of the breed and includes a list of all the Greyhound adoption centers nationwide.

| Very good book, March 27, 2003 |
| Reviewer: James O'Heare |
This was a very good book! It tells you more than most books on this topic--things you need to know. If you are thinking of adopting a greyhound get this book first.
