Some items harmful to Greyhounds

BARBITURATE ANESTHETICS

When a greyhound is given an anesthetic if MUST be a non-barbiturate. With having no fat a greyhound can't absorb the barbiturate the same way as other dogs can. If given one it can either kill the greyhound or it can take up to 24 to 48 hours to recover. Therefore, using a non-barbiturate anesthetic is essential.
