This is a greyhound rescue in Spain. Read the caption first, then watch the video. I was nearly in tears! It's beautiful.

It's ace, seeing them run around like that :D I'm always worried they're going to crash though! (One of ours did a couple of weeks ago, resulting in a broken leg).

I want the white one! :p

They're spectacular. Brought a tear to my eye half-way through, actually...

As gorgeous and happy as they are, it is worrying seeing them flying together at speed like that though. I've heard of greyhounds colliding and breaking their backs, killing themselves. Scary.

Way to put a downer on it, Hev :p

Sowwy.

They're just so clumsy, and so delicate.

The dogs in the video were stunning though. It's lovely to see them run like that without the worry of having their ears chopped off afterwards if they don't keep up!

I love when they turned around and the one at the back was like "Yay, I'm winning now!" :D

Ears chopped off is getting off lightly!

The video on there is grotty, shows some of the things done to racing greyhounds. So if people don't wanna watch it, don't click it.

You say something about putting a downer on it, Em??

I was saying the least horrific thing intentionally, so as not to upset people of delicate dispositions too much.

But I do think it's good to make people aware of the suffering poor racing dogs endure. Maybe you should have posted that as a thread in the animal rights section...?

I possibly did at some point. I can't remember
