Darwin Greyhound Racing

Greyhound racing is a sport that features dogs chasing an artificial rabbit round a track until they reach a finish line. The dog that makes it to the finish line first wins the race. Greyhound racing is still an amateur sport in most countries and the race events are just for entertainment purposes. However, in some countries like the United States, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia and the U.K., the sport is a favorite for punters even though it is not in the same league as horse racing. A strong greyhound adoption movement in Australia and other countries that have strong greyhound racing industry help to rehabilitate retiring dogs by placing them into homes as pets.
