What a beautiful betta!!!! I definitely want one... especially if he is as cheap as you said..... Baby is not here yet... so, have to wait for few days yet.... lol. Things are nice and cozy inside, so 'bun' is not ready yet to come out....

I will definitely let everyone knows when the baby decides to show up....

ok. i have never seen a greyhound race but we do get some of the rescue dogs in our shop for grooming.
theres an organization here who adopts them out after their done racing. but not nearly enough. : ((

Hi April, The government here has pretty strict controls over the greyhound industry. Every dog is checked over by a vet before they are allowed to run and they also do random urine testing on them to make sure the dogs arent being given any anti-imflammatory drugs or things to make them run faster. They do have a thing here to adopt a greyhound when they are retired but unfortunatlety not enough are adopted as they have to be muzzled if they are being walked etc. They are beautiful dogs, one day when i have a house i will adopt one, they have beautiful natures. They do the same with the horse racing industry but the horses arent checked over by a vet every single time they run like the greyhounds are - only randomly. At least with horses they are easily placed into good good homes after their racing career as dressage or show jumpers or even for people to ride for pleasure and a huge amount of them are taken by the police force for police horses - shame its not as easy with the greyhounds.

Hi Kerry....

Thank you..... Can't wait to see that double crown tail betta... We are running out of room... but for a beautiful betta like that... I WILL MAKE ROOM!!!!! LOL.

Where is this greyhound racing?? Near Capalaba.... Sorry... a bit ignorant in that area... Yes.. do call first.. hopefully I won't be at the hospital when you come up... Oh well... you can even visit the 'bun' at the hospital if that is the case.... :)

Regards, Ari :)

Ari, The greyhound racing track is in behind the Tavern in Capalaba - but i will call you first on Thursday. You can always throw your new Betta in with your discus! You saw how happy my red one is in my discus tank. I actually rescued another fighter a few weeks ago - he only has one eye and i felt sorry for him so after quarantining him he is now in with my discus in that tank i had in the bedroom. I had a new entertainment stand built and the guy reinforced the top so it would hold that tank, so its out in the loungeroom now. "Pretty" (one eyed fighter) actually thinks hes a discus, he hangs out with them all the time and at feed time if any of the swordtails go near the food he chases them away from the discus and joins in with the discus eating! I have another baby discus in there as well now - another one i felt sorry for - i think i told you about him - he was the last little guy left in that shop in the brickworks i took you to. The fighter didnt lose his eye, he hasnt got any sign of an eye being there. Now when i go to the shop where i got him they all ask how "the reject is going". Poor thing - but hes very happy. Yippy
