MIDGET, A 55-POUND FEMALE, WAS CRUSHED TO DEATH DURING A RACE AT RAYNHAM/TAUNTON GREYHOUND PARK IN JUNE 2000
"Midget," a small female greyhound was trampled and died instantly at Raynham Greyhound Park in late June. The young dog was in her maiden (introductory) race, when she got caught between several other dogs. Injury and death are two perils that often face racing greyhounds. Small dogs like Midget are frequently placed in races with much larger dogs of the same grade. Most track deaths go unreported by the media.
