From and article by: Ms T Baker Co-ordinator, www.greytexploitations.com (which has that fabulous Racism=Speciesism=Sexism graphic on its front page) Dougie is the third greyhound in as many months – which we know of – to have been subjected to this kind of attack but sadly, he was the only one to survive.

He has taken to ripping up any paper in sight and lunging at every dog except his greyhound friends on our walks.

I'm fortunate to have a regular (non-specialist) vet who has no problem at all with a vegan diet for dogs.

Greyhound skin is very thin. The greyhound people tell you that, not to mention it's pretty obvious. For these reasons, my vet had no problem with me stockpiling Vetsulin. The vets say that Charles' condition doesn't warrant another surgery, and that sometimes it takes a couple of years (!)
