Hi Winn'

Thank you for the well thought comments. You are right about the dogs needing the love and care if they will be raced. I feel the greed will take the place of extra care the dogs will receive so it seems like a no win for the dogs. I don't think dogs should be raced when so many suffer, just my feelings.

Thank you again for visiting and writing a caring note.

That is awful and such a shame! I have never know...

That is awful and such a shame! I have never known much about dog racing and would have never dreamed such awful things, or nightmared I guess I should say :( It's such a shame that something that could be should be a wonderful testiment to this breeds abilities and talents is such a detremient to their livelihood.
That picture you posted is heart breaking, those were beautiful dogs.
I am not anti dog racing, I am anti dog abuse and neglect, but if someone, state, federal, race tracks, owners or trainers can not find a way to make this sport more enjoyable and profitable for the greyhounds as well then it should be stopped. These dogs should be able to race, they are beautiful runners, but they should be loved and cared for above all.

Yes without a doubt dog racing should be banned. ...

Yes without a doubt dog racing should be banned. Race cars and trucks and leave our pets out of it.
