Owing to the development of Greyhounds as racing sighthounds, these dogs have acquired unique physiologic adaptations that distinguish them from other breeds. Reference intervals for many analytes in retired racing Greyhounds (RRGs) differ from those of other breeds; most of the hematologic differences have also been described in other sighthounds. In this review, we provide a survey of the literature on clinical pathology of Greyhounds and other sighthounds and results of laboratory testing, including analysis of CBCs, biochemical profiles, coagulation tests, and blood gases, in RRGs at The Ohio State University. Major clinicopathologic differences in this breed include higher RBC mass, creatinine concentration, glomerular filtration rate, activities of hepatic enzymes, and concentration of cardiac troponin, as well as lower WBC, neutrophil, and platelet counts, thromboelastographic values, and concentrations of serum haptoglobin, total globulins, and T4.
由于灵缇犬作为赛用视觉猎犬的发展，这些狗获得了独特的生理适应性，使它们与其他品种区分开来。退役赛犬（RRG）中许多分析物的参考区间与其他品种不同；其他视觉猎犬也描述了大多数血液学差异。在这篇综述中，我们对灵缇犬和其他视觉猎犬临床病理学的文献以及俄亥俄州立大学RRG的实验室检测结果进行了调查，包括全血细胞计数、生化指标、凝血试验和血气分析。该品种的主要临床病理差异包括较高的红细胞量、肌酐浓度、肾小球滤过率、肝酶活性和心肌肌钙蛋白浓度，以及较低的白细胞、中性粒细胞和血小板计数、血栓弹力图值，以及血清触珠蛋白、总球蛋白和T4浓度。
