Captive Canidate suffered a hock fracture and was euthanized.

Who makes the decision to euthanize? Unfortunately, a hock is a relatively common but treatable fracture so why euthanize this dog? If you know the answer please contact savetucsongreyhounds@gmail.com

This dog raced 81 times and then died. (PDF)
