Yes, for the same reason as Horce Racing, once the Greyhounds get too old and knackered to race any more, they get destroyed, same thing happens to the Horses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly this is mostly true. My wife does money raising for a retired Greyhound charity, once they get to a point where they aren't winning, they get retired and rehomed. I doubt it happens this way for all of them, but these are the lucky ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once they’d stopped winning, their owner had physically abused them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the first and only time I literally went to the Dogs (Owlerton Stadium) I won £8 on a £1 stake in the last race. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
