'The greyhound is fitted with a harness that converts its lung movement into mechanical ventilation. The harness is non invasive and uses the dog’s rapid chest movement to pump a bellows that pushes air into the patient’s lungs.
A greyhound brought up in racing kennels usually suffers from separation anxiety after retirement. As an assistance dog, it is constantly connected to its owner by a trache tube and is never left alone.
The treadmill, using a mechanical lure that employs the dog’s previous training, functions as the interface and on/off switch.'

I thought the Russians might be developing cyborg grayhounds. Cheers Tribs, I salute your knowledge of grayhound life support devices. Doesn't it mean if the dog dies, you die too though? You'd need at least two, in case the first one dies. (or two humans in case you died, if you're that way inclined)

for safety.

And suggested we hook our rehomed greyhound up thus.
She pointed out that Greyhounds (and I can vouch for this) are very good at going flat out for 15 - 20min after which they like a nice big sleep. This bodes poorly for the patient...
At least they're thinking!
