Cornelia Riethmann: from curious dog lover to greyhound expert
Cornelia’s greyhound story started with just a bit of curiosity, then ballooned into what will surely be a lifelong love of the breed. This is a story she shares with many greyhound people. There’s just something about these dogs that hooks people in for the long haul. It helps that there are greyhound communities all over the country. Racing Club Open Days let greyhound owners see the life their pets used to have as race dogs, and many remark how excited their hound is to be on the track again. Cornelia regularly chaperones on club Open Days. If ever there was anyone just a bit curious, she hopes to spark their love of greyhounds and hook them for life too.
