The crinolined women clustered beneath her seem handmaidens flocking to attend her entrance: even a greyhound follows her queenly progress.
While pulmonary capillary transmural pressures may be lower in greyhounds than in horses, the pulmonary capillary blood-gas barrier is weaker in the dog40.
The exercise response of greyhounds is physiologically similar to that of the horse in many ways.
Response to sprint exercise in the greyhound: effects on hematology, serum biochemistry and muscle metabolites.
Changes in haemorheology in the racing greyhound as related to oxygen delivery.
Conceptual categorization is making inductive inferences based on shared taxonomy, for instance, that greyhounds and poodles are both dogs despite their different looks.
Thus, it is likely that the greyhound approaches or exceeds this 'threshold for capillary rupture' during maximal exertion.
Notwithstanding the above, these are features specific to the greyhound that may protect this animal from the extensive rupture of the blood-gas barrier observed in the horse.
