[Moo] Fwd: [horseandhound] Fw: 500 Greyhounds to die THE FACTS

[Denis Gagnon]

That's good news. Thanks for posting it.

Don't let this deter you from looking into adopting one of those
wonderful dogs, though.  Friends of my lady and I had a pair that was
just fantastic.  They're called the 40miles an hour couch potatoes and
that's a true representation.  They surprisingly need very little
exercise, nothing different than what you would do with just about any
other dog. They can be quite content just lying there next to you.
They're fairly large, but elegant, calm, friendly; great dogs.  If it
wasn't for our current apartment complex's restrictions, I'd seriously
consider getting a pair (they do better in 2, by the way).

    My deepest apologies, here is the orrect information. If anyone is
interested in adopting greyhounds there are several noteworthy
oprganizations where you can do so. Again my apologies for forwarding
the last message about the greyhounds being euthanised.....
