Is artificial selection considered "evolution"?

[Minimalist]

I was at a big dog rescue event on Saturday and was chatting with a member of the Greyhound rescue group. These are racing dogs and there is still one track operating in Arizona. Because of breeding for "sleekness" they get many dogs who suffer broken legs simply because the bones are not strong enough to sustain the prolonged pounding they get just from running.

So much for "intelligent" design.
