As many people know an accident can happen without warning despite all care and attention being taken.
Participants who are handling greyhounds are reminded that the greyhound they are handling can become excited and make a sudden or unexpected move without warning.
Greyhounds being put into or taken out of weighting cages or kennel bays are likely to be excited and handlers need to be especially vigilant in these situations.
Remember, your safety and that of your greyhound, is in your hands.
