Victorian greyhound trainer avoids ban after dog tests positive for cocaine

A Victorian greyhound trainer avoided a ban Thursday after his dog tested positive for cocaine at a 2024 race. Geoffrey Dalton was fined $300 with a wholly suspended nine-month disqualification, which the industry regulator appealed unsuccessfully to the tribunal. The decision comes as advocacy groups report 30 greyhounds have died at or after Victorian races.
