Attached are the receipts of these donations. A poster containing the findings of the research will be available shortly.
Thank you again!

My name is Rebecca Harris and I am a 5th year Veterinary Medicine student at Murdoch University in Western Australia. As part of my studies, I am conducting some research into the outcomes and experiences of people who have had greyhounds undergo Superficial Digital Flexor Tenotomies for the treatment of corns. To do this, I have created an anonymous survey (link below). The survey consists of 20 questions and will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Some questions will ask for dates of procedures or when they developed lameness, I understand that this may be difficult to answer exactly and so for these questions please give the closest approximation possible. If you have any questions or issues with accessing the survey, please feel free to contact me either by direct message through my profile, or my email: [email protected] To encourage participation, I would like to offer 2 randomly selected participants the chance to nominate a greyhound rescue charity for which I will donate $50 (AUD) each. I will post receipts of the donations here for transparency. Before completing the survey, please read the information letter in the featured section.
