DeGalgos recommend not ever let the greyhound, unless in a secure and enclosed with a fence six feet high.
I'm tired of hearing that if my dog \u200b\u200bis very obedient, they always come back ... Yes, yes ... until one day startled by a noise, a dog coming towards him, because he gets bitten by a flea or a bug, or see a cat, a rabbit or whatever goes running after him. We must not forget that sight is the sense that are more developed and which are dogs that when they run can reach reach 60km / h, run so wild that are blind and see nothing, sometimes may be affixed to something. They can lose track of space and be lost, indeed. are lost. Then come the cries and pleas for help because your dog is lost by the negligence of its owner, apologizing saying is that I like to see run, enjoys running.
also remind you that if you cause an accident, are violated, the dog owner is civilly liable for damages resulting, in both things, like people
EJ: if in the case of being hit by a car, the car is damaged, the dog owner is civilly liable for such damage .
Another thing: Use a belt of 1.10 cm / 1.20 cm long wound on the hand well. Do not be fooled by the magic, slow, walk parsimonious greyhound. You may forget you have a dog at the end of the belt! Until he sees a cat or a dog, or something exciting, then it can become a bullet and thereby firmly grasp the belt is essential. Only some dogs do this, but do not get caught off guard! Could
jumping a fence of 1.50 cm, without the slightest effort but probably will not. For more security fences of the houses with garden must be 2 meters high. It is important to block your view with a solid fence not see the cat next door.
is important that the houses with garden, whether from outside third parties may see it, do not let the dog in the garden alone, because there are many cases of stolen dogs, then hope for a better life, often ending fades again in the hands of hunters, as guinea pigs in laboratories, sparring in dogfighting ...
I write this letter to tell you a sad story, but I hope it serves to prevent the recurrence of such events. An acquaintance of my village, Calella de la costa, took no less than a year ago to a beautiful greyhound through a partnership of our community Catalunya.
When we met a day when we were walking with my son and our four Greyhounds, I was really happy because I thought, "Great, another greyhound who has been lucky and this with a good family," how much joy at that time, breaks loose as they harmonized including tails movements here, tails there, licks, rubs, barking, jumping, were recognized as equals and brothers in race were Greyhounds.
often not agree more, but always knew we lived in another Greyhound Calella more.
But a few days ago we had the sad news that the greyhound had died, grief and sadness that I came in, but more so to know under what circumstances it happened. Like any other day his master took him out for a walk along the seafront from our village near which go in parallel ... railroad tracks, which although they are bounded and fenced, not because they are very safe, so like many of us (including myself) that although it has received from people with more experience than we do about such as Greyhounds, their tips and warnings not to let them go loose if we are not in a well fenced enclosure for their own safety, the greyhound owner to let him loose to run with the assurance that as so often when I called came quickly to his side.
But that day did not happen, he spent a cat, greyhound and followed his instinct, ran after him, misfortune was that the cat half way through the bars of the fence of the railway, and also greyhound stopped running in the middle of the road, the owner called him but gave him no time to return the train to pass and took the life of the greyhound.
I do not go into detail, I can not, so if you please learn all that they depend on us and sometimes we believe that they either do not, listen to the advice of someone dealing with them a long time and knows what he speaks, do not fall into the typical, that is to think " this does not happen to me, but this may not be another unheeded warning if evitémoslo.
I do not put names or greyhound owner, I respect their privacy and their grief.
The mine itself.
Esther.
