“They call it the typewriting death, because the dog's back legs struggled against the ground and make the clicking sound of a typewriter，” said Albert Sorde, of the SOS Galgos greyhound rescue group. “It is a punishment for greyhounds that are thought to have made their owners lose face. ”

　　“Rey's throat was severely damaged but we managed to find a vet to operate and, though it was expensive, he survived，” he said.

　　Greyhounds in Spain are used for hunting hares.“The dogs are meant to imitate the swerves (转向)of the hares，” said Sorde. “Those who don't, and make their owners look bad, are called dirty greyhounds' and are most likely to be killed by the typewriter method. ”
