The races have gone to the dogs...



Well last week I posted about the horse races...this week it's dog races.  Here in Florida they have greyhound racing.  It is really cool to watch....but it is really hard to bet on. We pretty much guessed...and didn't do well at all.  So we ended up just relaxing and watched the races.  The greyhounds are truly  beautiful dogs and they are so fast.

Here they are at the start of the race.

As you can see..they are coming around the curve heading for the finish.

This is another view of them racing around the track.
Yes, they really are chasing a stuffed white rabbit which is on a metal bar that goes around the track.  Too weird!
Since we didn't do very well at picking the winning dog .. we just enjoyed the day.
