And here is the link to the PetRescue site that we got him from. http://www.petrescue.com.au/search_petrescue/ I really like this site because most of the animals are in foster care so you actually find out quite a bit about them before you take them on - risk minimalisation.
However, the point of all this is that the beautiful Beau is what can only be described as a picky eater - which results in disagreeable dog leftovers. Meat, dried food (which he will only eat after it has been soaked!) - it is all very nasty. The worms can't/won't eat it. Our very small garden is not large enough to bury it in and it stinks in the rubbish. What you might call an unanticipated outcome.
My only hope is that as we will be getting another greyhound (he doesn't like to be left alone and needs a friend!) maybe that will result in less leftover food. The things you don't expect ...

ohhh puppy is so so cute : )
Thank you. Have also recognised that I am seriously at risk of being a dog bore so will try not to bang on about him endlessly ...
A word of warning on soaking dog biscuits for him, his teeth need the abrasiveness of dog biscuits or raw bones to stay clean. He may prefer mush, but unless you want to clean his teeth daily with a toothbrush or pay lots of dollars to your vet to do the same, unsoaked dog biscuits are the go. I find my dogs really dislike cheap biscuits and will eat not so cheap biscuits only if no alternatives are offered, so no alternatives are offered 4 out of 7 days!

I think a bit of tough love is needed in the dog department.
