A dog jumping a hurdle



I have finally seen dogs jumping hurdles.
One of ATR's adverts shows them.

Unfortunatly I first saw it in the pub - and said "Ohhh dogs jumping" quite loud - when everyone turned round the dogs were crossing the finish line no hurdles in sight. They though I was seeing things. Had to spend ages convincing people that I'm not insane after all.

Had to find this picture again to convince myself.

I am pretty sure the Greyhound Grand National used to be run at Hall Green. Police dogs cant beat greyhounds but they are quicker than i am.

Allegedly
