JR

Afghan racing is not the same as greyhound racing, far from it, people take their dogs to run for free exercise and for the dogs to enjoy. They is absolutely no money involved except paying for the dog to run.

You get the "OH sod it the damn thing is getting away,, so I give up" Afghan


Or the " If I cheat do you think anyone would notice" Afghan





"My owners don't know that secretly I am learning new norty tricks"



Bazza


Or "Who needs a stupid track and dummy hare? I can do it without those!" Afghan
