1. I doubt you will find the answers you are looking for here - you need to go to a site that is for racing Greyhounds - Try Global Greyhounds: www.globalgreyhounds.com/ I hope that you plan on keeping your dog when he is finished racing and making him a member of your family! Greyhounds are such kind souls and make wonderful pets. Good luck with your boy. :)
2. I think you have asked this (sort of) question before recently. My answer then stands. Ask your trainer!!!
