Asked by Wiki User

Yes, in normal circumstances.
Because of it's "small dog" advantages when accelerating, the whippet is probably faster over very short distances (e. g. up to 50 yards) from a standing start.

Can a felon get parimutuel license in fl to work at greyhound track?

User Avatar

Asked by Monikastringer

The answer is likely no. Florida is not a 'right to work' state, so employers can easily restrict their hiring practices. A felony record is easy to check and gambling establishments (like the tracks) have very strict security concerns. You may never know without asking someone in the personnel office at the track or consulting an attorney specializing in employment law.

Why should greyhound racing continue?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sure, why not? It's not the racing itself that is a problem in most cases, it's the way the dogs are treated by their trainers and owners.

Greyhounds love running. They enjoy it. Many racetracks treat their dogs really well and the dogs are happy.

Of course, a controversial aspect of greyhound racing is the danger of such races. Yes, they can hurt themselves but it's similar to an extreme human sport. But dogs hurt themselves all the time playing too.

What do greyhound dogs eat?

Asked by Wiki User

I have a greyhound, and for breakfast she has mostly our food! You can buy greyhound cereal, but I recommend just normal cereal, because my Greyhound Trust did that, and so do I. She loves it and she has never had any problems with it. The cereal that we give her is either Weetabix or Cornflakes. Please don't add any sugar because that may be bad for them. You can also give them toast! But not too much because they may get the runs. (You know what I mean?!?!) And for dinner we give her Kibble, (Buy from any store) Add some hot water then allow to cool so it's not too hot. We add water because kibble is quite dry without water. For a little flavour, sometimes we put in some chicken or something!! She gobbles this up straight away! By the way, if you are just going to give them kibble and water, then your usual kibble runs out, don't go changing the brands just like that because it upsets their stomach and they get the runs... We don't want that, do we? So, when you are starting to run out, buy some different brand of kibble, so you have as little of the old, and a box of the new. Then put in the last of the old and a bit of the new. Slowly give them the new then that won't affect their health. Hope this helped! ( :

Where do greyhounds sleep and stay when they have to race?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

So, please don't think this answer is from an expert. Ihis is just comming from my knowledge and expeirence from my recue greyhound. So, basically they start training at about 1, more or less. They train and in-between (where they sleep and stay) is in crates. But don't think it's a bad thing...they love it. They grew up with it. Infact, when you adopt one, they encourage you to take the crate for the comfort of the dog. But your actual question, where they sleep and stay during a RACE, I'm not sure. But I would guess either in a gated field or crates (most likely crates).
