Revelations could sink greyhound industry

THE unfortunate events recently could well sink the greyhound industry. Greyhounds have been a part of my life in a small way for over 40 years. Anyone can keep a greyhound, or a few, in their garden.

I am primarily racing greyhounds because I like dogs (slow and fast). I also keep gundogs.

The trend over the last number of years has been sinister. By that I mean the use of hormones and steroids. These drugs are very dangerous. No dog deserves to have them administered. They are only dogs and will give their best when left alone. This is how the game is, or should be.
