Summary: A GREAT GUIDE
Comment: Have you ever considered the possibility of adopting a racing greyhound but didn't know where to begin? Cynthis Branigan takes away all of the anxieties and worries about adopting these wonderful royal canines.
In a simple format Branigan lays out the history of the breed, the training of the dogs, their care and the steps you need to consider in adopting a grehound for your household. I found the book easy to follow and it opened up the possibility of considering an ex-racer as a pet for my household.
Adopting The Racing Greyhound should be your number one primer in finding out how to acquire these remarkable dogs. The author is highly enthusiastic in sharing the information and is also one who has adopted greyhounds. Her informative style and commitment to the dogs is remarkable. Cynthia Branigan is also very clear in presenting the challenges of having an ex-racer in your home. She tells about their quirks and habits which can be overcome if you are patient with your dog and are willing to spend the time to incorporate this pet in your household.

Summary: Fabulous book-
Comment: Though I don't own this book, I've read it cover to cover and it is wonderful. It's a nice little guide that covers everything you need to know if you're considering adopting a retired racer. It doesn't side with anti-racing/pro-racing and leaves you free to have your own opinion.
It has an excellent list at the back of contacts (adoption kennels) in each state.
If, after you read this, you decide you'd like a greyhound and want to do more research on health, training, etc., "Retired Racing Greyhound for Dummies" is a good buy.
Still, you need this one first. Its beautiful cover will make it a good coffee table book as well!

Summary: Adopting the racing Greyhound
Comment: The book Adopting the racing Greyhound was recommended to me and so I went to Amazon to buy it. Based on customer reviews, it looked like the book was out of print. Then I saw the word edition and clicked on that. Am I glad I did, as there is a new third edition of the book out that just came out this past summer. It is great. It answered all of my questions about my dog and then some. So, don't give up! The new book is available, but Amazon just has it listed in a hard to find way.
