A race-winning greyhound tests positive for meth...

A greyhound trainer has been disqualified for four months and fined $3500, after methamphetamine was found in one of her dogs. Last week, the Minister for Racing, Grant Robertson, and the Ministerresponsible for animal welfare, Meka Whaitiri, announced a government review of the greyhound racing industry. Robertson said he was concerned about track safety and cited "far too many incidents" recently where dogs had died or been injured and said he could not rule out shutting down the industry altogether.
The latest case has prompted animal rights group SAFE to call on the government to halt all greyhound racing until the review of the industry is complete.

I worked at a Greyhound race track in Nevada, during my time there, I saw 2 dogs die in accidents while racing.

The dogs are tested for drugs before and, after each race, I don't know how that trainer thought drugs wouldn't be detected.
