Yes I read that too. Doping is common among racing greyhounds. There has been a lot of publicity about EPO especially in Ireland recently. Have a look at this article or any anti racing site for loads of information. This is only the stuff people are aware of!

Jenny, after reading the article you put in a link - I now realise that use of drugs is not something fairly recent but has gone on for many many years!!  


 I guess its good that newspapers print such articles to at least raise awareness to the general public what goes on!

It's great that the article will raise more awareness. But isn't it sad that there seems to be a focus on stopping the sport from being wrecked? Never mind stopping the poor innocent dogs having their lives tampered with!
