520    Greyhounds, bred to be the fastest racing dogs on earth, 
       are streaks of lightning. Beautiful, astonishing creatures,
       countless numbers of them disappear each year once they 
       can no longer compete and win.The Dogs of Avalon 
       introduces us to the strong-willed Marion Fitzgibbon, born
       in rural Ireland, where animals are valued only for their 
       utility. But Fitzgibbon believes that suffering is felt by
       all creatures, and she champions the cause of strays, 
       baffling those around herincluding her familyas she and a 
       group of local women rescue any animal in need and taking 
       on increasingly risky missions.
