Thankfully you were there in time.
Greyhounds are so much more fragile than other breeds.

Another caveat for dog owners:

PLEASE do NOT ride your bike with your dog running on a leash, particularly in the summer,
but really -- at any time of the year.
I know of a dalmation who collapsed and died while doing this.
I hear owners say that they go slowly,
but i will tell you that it isn't slow enough for any length of time.

In addition that it is potentionally bad for your dog, it is just plain dangerous!
