Mention of the Greyhound may be relatively unfamiliar to everyone, and Sister Hua wants to show you a picture first.
When you see their handsome, cute appearance, do you already recall the appearance of the Lingti dog? The Greyhound, also known as the Gree Dog, originated in the Mediterranean regions such as Greece and Turkey around 500 BC during the time of the Pharaohs, and is a very old dog breed. They are the best at running and are known as "runners". Because of this, the Greyhound has become the protagonist of the dog racing competition.
Their innate racing spirit coupled with the love of multi-owner allows them to give their all in every race. People only see the domineering spirit of the greyhound standing on the championship podium, but they ignore the pain of their hard training. Most of the owners of greyhounds are kennel lovers, and once they are purchased as racing dogs, they will not be raised as pet dogs. There is no warm embrace, no owner's care, no paradise of your own. What awaits them is an extensive rearing environment, constantly running and training every day.
But they did not love their master because of this, and once they identified the master, they would certainly fulfill the master's command. Even though the training was brutal, they still worked hard. Their training can be described as extremely cruel, and some owners will lock them in a dark room and not have enough to eat every day in order to make the GreyHounds exert their explosive power, so that when they are released, they will run as hard as they can to find food. No one knew how frightened, how frightened they were in that little dark room, only that their explosive power was invincible. Sometimes, in order to make them endurance, the owner will tie the greyhound to the back of the car and let them run continuously.
Even if they are tired, painful, and uncomfortable when they train, they will try to fight. Not because they naturally love to run, but because they love their masters!
It is such a hard-working, tenacious Greyhound, who has won countless honors for their masters, but they are very miserable after being injured or retired. According to the animal groups, an average of 50,000 Greyhounds are discarded after the race each year.
Especially in Spain, where dog racing is prevalent, there are abandoned greyhounds everywhere, some of them are injured during the game, the owner feels that there is no need to treat the abandoned, some of them are older, the owner feels that there is no use value and is abandoned, some of them are not pleasing to the owner, abandoned after being abandoned by the owner. There are many reasons for abandonment, but in the final analysis, it is because the owners do not love them, but train them to be their own means of earning money.
According to volunteers at animal charity SOS GalgosAnna Clements, who specialize in rescuing these greyhounds, they can only save up to 350 dogs a year, but this is only a very small part of what has been abandoned.
In fact, this is also a domestic phenomenon at present, and rescue cannot catch up with the speed of abandonment.
In fact, Sister Hua does not understand why the Lingti dogs that work hard to win victories for their owners have not received the respect and treatment they deserve, and Sister Hua has always felt that dogs are the most loyal partners of human beings, they never care about their own gains and losses, and strive to become the master's right-hand man. They love their masters more than they love themselves, and they should be exchanged for their masters' pity for them.
Sister Hua hopes that whether it is a Lingti dog or other dog breeds, once it is decided to raise, then it must be cared for with heart, love, and action. To love, please love deeply, do not love, and do not hurt. I sincerely hope that everyone can treat every dog well, they are really good friends of human beings.
