my aunt rescues greyhounds in ny. she has cancer so she fosters them till they can get a new home. i have a few rescues too. i posted a new video if you want to check out my rescue babies.
ALL of our 7 babies are rescues!!! I so wish we could take in more!!! They're the best dogs ever!! We were lucky of how healthy our babies are, we do have one that was raced for too long and now his nails don't grow correctly, but we still love him soooo much!!
i adopted a galgo espanol from spain,where they do terrible things with these beautiful dogs.they're the most friendly,gracefull,loving dogs i've ever met.the people who abuse these animals should have the same treatment they give these beauties;..........terrible abusement!!
I have a rescued greyhound named Depeche. She is the sweetest, most beautiful, laziest (LOL :) dog I know. I love her so much! We go everywhere together and she is my constant companion. Another positive point about greyhounds is that they seldom bark. I can not imagine a better pet. Greyhounds are the most loving dogs and their character is almost regal.
I feel blessed to have Depeche in my life. If you are considering adopting a greyhound, please do it. Fall in LOVE!
@DBHuntington hi DB i know what you mean. i'm seriously in love with my rescued galgo too!it is said that ;once you have a greyhound ,you never want any other kind of dog!i totally agree with this!i used to have whippets untill they died of old age!now i hope my precious galgo will do the same!!respect from amsterdam
@kc0wtq, you seriously believe that if people stop adopting retired hounds that people will stop racing them? The money is made off of these dogs whether they are adopted or euthanized. Racetracks are not puppy mills. Their money is not made from adopters; it's made from gamblers. Grow a brain.
That said. If anyone else has room in their heart and a couch to lose, adopt a retired greyhound. They are patient, loving, sweet-natured dogs who would fly to the moon and back to please their adopters.
@JodyWittman actually, there money isnt made from gamblers at all, if that were the case they would be filthy rich, they get stake money not money from bets
My step-dad adopted a retired racing dog and she is one of the most sweetest and loving dogs I've ever seen! Great dogs, never had a problem w/ her destroying the yard or carpet though. They are definitely 45 mph couch potatoes! lol
Yea well the people that are obsessed with saving them are not all there either. My girlfriend moved in with me had 1 then 4 months later we were up to 5. they will destroy your lawn and carpet. their salvation is overrated. I wish they would ban racing do these dogs were not bred so heavy its all very stupid
HURRY!!!!! Urgent request: Dairyland Greyhound Racetrack in Kenosha, Wisconsin will be closing on December 31, 2009.... 900 Greyhounds need to be adopted or they will be euthanized. Please help me get the word out; there is only 6 weeks to get this done. Contact Joanne Kehoe Operations Director P: 312.559.0887 Or Dairyland Race Track Adoption Center direct at (262) 612-8256 -can anyone help??
that fucking cunt at 1:02 is someone from northeast who does this behind his newsagent, people bring the ex racers to him and he does tht for money, fat greedy bastard
anyone who threats greyhounds or a matter asfact treats any animal or reptile any living thing deserves to be tortured very very slowly i hate people that do this shit to animals or any other things it pisses me off excuse my language i just get super mad!!
Adpting is great but it's not the solution, REGULATION is, these dogs are used as a business and there should be enforced standards on how they are treated, if not massive animal cruelty fines should follow, fines that will push corrupt dog owners right out of business. Register all racing dogs and have their treatment monitered especially at the end of their career, if the 'owners' wish to hand them over to adoption societies after- then they should pay a fee for this service..total BS system.
Things for greys are much worse than this.The 30,000 killed refers ONLY to the retired racers.There are a lot more that die as puppies before they ever see a racetrack.Not fast enough,wrong sex (bitches are not wanted) don't 'look' right..As they don't have 'race cards' these are not counted.- so does this mean they don't count?
My greyhound Gracye is 9 years old. When she lost a bet, they beat her up so much she was useless, and she couldn't even stand on her legs. She is still on therapy...
i need to know why people do this to such great, beautiful dogs, i love animals, how could someone have such a cruel mind?...i will kill them all who beat greyhounds or any dog god damn it. i hope every one of those who beat them go to hell and parish. oh Lord please help those animals.
Humans are not animal but something very sick.The balance has tipped so for its over ppl like it or not,mass population of so many stupid ppl 300,000 born daily.Animals are not ours to controle and like the comment below I hope we become extinct so the balance can work it's self out.Vegaterian is a good start vegan is gold.
Because of the evil done to animals just to make evil people money because of their ignorant greed, I am hoping WW3 happens in the near future and every single human being burns on the earth and suffers, its looking promising to, especially with the current unrest in the world :) Humans are despicable. Come on nature cause more millions more to suffer :) (fingers crossed)
@novelenterprise a lot of people think they're from Egypt because they look similar to Salukis, Pharaoh, and Ibizan Hounds but afaik they're actually from Europe around Ireland and Scotland. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure they were celtic dogs pretty closely related to Scottish Deerhound and the Irish Wolfound.
I have teach my greyhound to wash his face, when I ask him to. It has been hard, but the result is so funny !!! You can watch it in my video. I hope you will like it. Thank's
Do not adopt a greyhound, they are really agressive to other dogs, you won't be able to take it to the dog park. I'M NOT LYING. ASK ANYONE IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME!
my mom adopted 1 greyhound 5 yrs ago, I HATED IT!!! it was ugly to me, well long story short it worked its way into my heart and is so beautiful and i love greyhounds will never have another breed and adopted another 1
Where were the greyhounds being mistreated and where did you get access to those track photos.There are no statements what tracks gave you those photos. Those adopted greyhounds looked very happy and cared for. Where was the death and dying ????
Cannot watch this video w/out crying about the mistreatment and abuse of greys! We have had 5--currently 2--and I can't imagine life w/out greyhounds in it! LOVED the pix of the 4faces lined up at the table - scene could have been in our house, lol. They are such gentle, loving creatures and, as I have stated elsewhere, these rescue greys seem to have a 6th sense and know that you have saved their lives. They will reward you with nothing but love and complete devotion. Greyhound Friends of NC
To be an unwanted greyhound must be one of the saddest things in the world. All dogs love to be loved and receive love in return, they want to be a loyal friend to someone who cares for them. Each day I hope more people will realise how wonderful greyhounds are, it doesn't hurt to share your heart and your couch! 5 star video thank you :) xx
greyhounds are one of the most perfect dogs there is and anyone that kills them for example that man that killed hundreds of greyhounds should suffer how they suffer not get let off with a couple of months in prison and a fine!!
at 25 seconds looks exactly like my greyhound our family adopted. greyhounds are amazing dogs and everybody who abuses these animals should go to hell!
The begining of this clip is by far the most horrifying piece of footage i have ever seen.., It breaks my heart to see the total lack of respect for a living being and such a loving animal, My family has had whippets for over 20 yrs and I have Adopted a greyhound myself.... this simply makes me sick. PLEASE ADOPT A GREYHOUND TODAY!!!!!!
Please ban Greyhound racing - these dogs are bred for only one reason, money from racing - a very small percentage are adopted. None are bred as pets, and this the finiest and about the oldest of dog breeds deserves more. Adoption is wonderful for the lucky few, but what about the others who never have joy in their lives.
So you think not a single greyhound is bred as a pet? Are you mad? How do you think greyhounds got here in the first place, they are a working breed, bred for that purpose. If racing stopped, the breed would decrease in size and they wouldnt be bred for ability, but looks. To me this completely undiminded the greyhound an denies it of what its bred for. Take a look at Bull terriers of most breeds, it was once a ,athletic,proud, loyal and human friendly type. Now they are fat, attacking
kids and owners. This would never of happened with a working bull breed as it wouldn't be taunted in a family environments, denied the energy releases it would have got whilst "working" and training. They are now bred for looks rather than characteristics and you get breeding there manbiter with fluffy down the road who growls at dogs no matter what the owner does. But they are excuses by there stupid owners, a working dog would never be tolerated for human aggression etc and rightly so
Yes I have read that somewhere, that the only greyhounds are racing dogs and a few show dogs. Would love to hear if that is wrong. ANd breeding for looks is better than breeding for racing. Their hair and skin are so thin it is easy to get knicked, their thin long legs easily,broken if any fat the legs can't hold them up so they sensitive to all butmild weather. All so they can run faster.
breeding for looks is not better than breeding for racing you bloody idiot...do you know they put brother over sister and father over daughter, for looks??? maybe you should look into it a little more, dogs bred for looks are usually inbred, the same as ridgebacks you think the bigger the ridge the better the dog, do you know the bigger the ridge the worse the spinabifida is..at least in greyhound breeding they have a database so you can look at the test mating before breeding which will show u
you are right, and I never meant to mean that was better, but there was no reason for you to get so ugly about it - I hope this hateful rampage is because you are against all animal cruelty instead of defending how greyhounds are treated. That is how I read it the first time but upon rereading maybe not. Sadly it is easier to find animals that are treated a lot worse than greyhounds, I just happened tohave lived with one for eight years,
actually greyhounds are a hound breed along with the borzoi.and get ur facts rite. if u havent noticed we are talking about greyhounds not bull terriers. also the bull terrier is not fat and attacking. my best friend has 1 called kia and she is the most friendliest dogi have ever met. think before u type next time. but i do agree with u when you say that the breed would decrease in size and they wouldnt be bred for ability, but looks.....................
oh my goodness! The horrific pictures of the pile of greyhounds! that was alot to handle, but believe it or not, it is needed to show people whats going on. I am the owner of 2 retired racers and they are the best thing thats happened to me. I also have 2 other dogs with a total clan of 5 and will soon be looking into another greyhound adoption.
This video shows all emotions. Sad, Angry, Happy, Confused, everything. Keep up the good work!
I also wanted to say this video is a work of art, it shows the sadness of the greyhounds lost to the miserable captivity of their owners racing aspirations, then the happy endings of those that are rescued to wonderful loving arms & families. If only they could all experience the better side of human nature. This world needs to stop exploiting the voiceless & treat animals as friends, they are precious creatures that deserve our protection and care. Please speak up for them & share this film.
Until we stop using animals as 'sport' and 'entertainment' objects, we will never be able to prevent the abuse of these wonderful dogs and it's the same for circus animals. The trouble with human beings is that many really only 'see' animals when they are gaining from them financially but to be truly compassionate we must have empathy for all species and the right to live a safe and happy life from birth to death.
My message below is in response to the message written by Keri365.
Now to the composer of this video, thank you for this very sensitive and absolute eye opener about how greyhounds live before they are retired. Alhough very difficult to view, and extremely heart breaking, it must be seen in order to make people aware of what buying a ticket at a race track really means. Not only for greyhounds, but for horses, and any other kind of animal that is bet on.
I love these dog, I am a huge animal lover. It makes me so sad to see anyone do anything to ANY animal in a negative way. I do not support dog racing but I do support the greyhound rescues. Everyone should adopt before they buy a puppy, that is my personal opinion. Dogs are ever faithful and they don't deserve what so many humans do to them. All animals are at the mercy of the hands of man, especially the ones which are close to us...
i have 2 rescued ex racers and they make the most unbeleivable pets! they are so docile and loving and all they ever want is 2 meals, 2 walks and endless cuddles each day. to all greyhound owners/lovers, keep up the good work in ensuring that these beautiful animals have the very best in life. they are as close to royalty as any dog could ever come!
LOL they are amazing dogs huh? I know a few people with rescue greyhounds and they are complete velcro dogs. I love it though becuase they are so smart and so sweet, I don't think they could EVER do anything wrong in anyone's eyes. lol They are just amazing.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
if you think you can care for 30 racing greyhounds 7 days a week 14 hours a day then come and see me.unless you've been to a racing kennel and seen the care these dogs get then please dont believe the anti racing muppets comments on here,
I'm sorry but I disagree with you, I worked in an animal shelter with well over 30 dogs and took care of them. Its not that hard, and anything that involves using a dog for the pure humor or snobbish tendancies to makind is wrong. Dogs are man's best friend, not man's most loyal slave. I am afraid that you need to open your eyes. And we are not talking about when they are still racing, we are talking about when they are retired and outlived their use to their owners.
Well, take a closer look. He is talking about when they are still racing and at the race tracks!!! This is not to say that they all treat them this way, but the GREAT MAJORITY do. Those imagines where not posed for the fun of it. These poor retired racing greyhounds have all the physical and psychological wounds to show for what they go through. It is amazing they can ever trust a human ever again.
It's not so much that happens at the track while they're racing, who would abuse a dog that might make you money. It's what happens to them when they are deemed no longer of use for racing. They're NOT euthanized, they're turned over to an individual for disposal, mand trust me, he's not going to spend any of his blood money on doing it humanely.
I just want to say thanks for posting this video. You don't know how terrible people can be. We say we want peace, but somehow we kill and hurt those when we dont need them anymore. We simply dispose them like garbage. Greyhounds -and other dogs- deserve to be loved. If there was anyway people could live one day as a retired greyhound that was being hurt and treated badly, they would change.
This is touching :). I have a greyhound (retired) named Harley. I think you guys would definitely enjoy the music video I put together starring him. I gaurantee it. So if you want to smile, you should check it out. Greyhounds are such amazing dogs. :( Its sad to see them mistreated. They don't know what life could be like.
Pt 2-They're ALL special; some have recovery needs that take time & patience. Worth it? YOU BET! In their racing lives, they're passed from owner, to trainer, to walker, to vet, etc. People come & go. When they go home with you, it takes them time to realize they're not leaving again- when you leave, you ALWAYS come back, and you are THEIRS! That's the best- they know they're HOME, they begin to trust, and joyfulness awakens. In Jan. we lost one at 14. We grieved. We'll adopt another, lucky us!
My hubby & I've adopted Greyhounds since '94. #1, from anxiety, chewed the bars on her track cages, all her front teeth were little brown nubs. #2, before we got her, lived a year at a vet clinic as blood donor for other dogs (they also cut her vocal cords-they call it "debarking"). #3, a small brindle girl abused at a racer training farm, so terrified she almost was put down after rescue. #4, has only one eye and was recovering from a badly set broken leg when we got him. Pt 1-To be continued.
Its obviouslt stupid and heartless for trainers to abuse theyre dogs. but and adopting is great. but i gota tellya even retired greyhounds are a handfull. You absolutley cannot have any furry animals in your house or theyre hunting/track instinct will kick in. And that means a greyhound running 40 mph in your house trying to catch you cat. (one of the most distructive and funniest things ive ever seen in my life)
Its disgusting and truly shameful what people will do for money. Its heartbreaking and I hope people are outraged !!! Lets get an end to this creulty...stop the suffering of all animals. We as humans have alot of blood on our hands as there is torture to animals everywhere...in so many ways ! Perhaps we will learn to be more appreciative and our children and elderly will be taken care of also ! Thank-you to all who are kind and loving.
THANK-YOU for posting this...I cant watch it myself because I already know what is happening to these BEAUTIFUL dogs. Let the word get out about this and horse racing too ! If you look at the history of the greyhounds....They came from Egypt, known as Pharoah hounds, protecting the tombs...the English came and started breeding them with pit bull to make them more aggressive ( hence the brindle markings ) Pharoah hounds are a solid color. They used to tie monkeys on thier backs to run them.
why is greyhound racing not made illegal and horse racing as well come to think of it!!
the people who do these disgusting things deserve to be shot and have the worst lives possible. its just disgusting and heartbreaking for me to see this bcos im thinking how horrible it would be for my dog to be in this situation again. he has half an ear missing from when they cut it off and has a lot of scars on his legs. i would love to get hold of who did it to him
I gave mine up today because I could not find a place to rent with them. They deserved alot better than I could offer them. I pray they find a new owner who can give them a garden and a proper place to sleep in. I miss them terribly and I've lost two faithful friends. I will probably never see them again. Anyone out there who can help these beautiful dogs please do. I am so sorry I don't have a proper place to live so I can keep them. Landlords take note!!!!
We have had our retired racer, Madge, for just over a week and this video made me bawl! I have wanted a greyhound for years and now I don't think I could ever be without one.
people are so cruel sometimes i don't understand how a person could go to sleep at night knowing that they were causeing pain and suffering to harmless animals
It is a vicious cycle, if they weren't breed for greed there wouldn't be so many homeless. I have adopted 3 and fostered 3. My first was straight off the Hollywood dog track, he was starved, abused and petrified of men.
I made a video about this holocaust for italian people! hope this help. When I'll got a house of my own, i hope i will adopt a greyhoud or a galgo. Goodbye! Federico
Greyhounds are the most loving creatures on this planet. My family rescued one and if she wasnt rescued she would most likely be dead now. All the people who kill these dogs or work for a track should go to HELL!
poor greyhounds my neigbours got a retired greyhound and had him for a very long time and then he died of old age just like all dogs should i still was upset that thor died :(
Greyhounds make the most perfect pets. They do not deserve to be treated as a commodity by the racing industry. But if they are, they deserve a decent life afterwards, not to be disposed of in a wheelbarrow as happened in County Durham.
i do however share your wish to help dogs hwo suffers, and feel deeply devotet. Anyone making an effort to stop the suffering are for me great souls, what ever the action is. Yes i think so too goobyusa, it hurts to let my self feel the pain of these dogs. and its easy to go in denial.
Sad loss of beautiful dogs. I think 00wyk and cinnamontic are closer than they think - neither wants to see this abuse. No dog lover wants to see this. I already have a pointer rescue and another GSP, but would have a grey if we could afford another dog and had the money for more food and another set of vet bills and monthly heartworm prevention meds. Haunting video, many thanks and best wishes in your campaign.
think ive changed my oppinion on you. you accuse me of beeing a ignorant person and that i am a part of the dog abuse...well hwos ignorant now..you dont know me, i just ask questions to you. Hwo are you hwo know me so well?
ok, i just recogniced some spanish envirement and " galgoish" dogs.i know theyr grey mix many of them. but do the irish hang the irish grays ? - great work- Marianne
actually many of your videos is not of the racing greyhound, but the spanish galgo(galgo espanol) not that it matters for, me just wanted to get you the right facts. Its important anyway.
I'd love to get a greyhound but I already have a mongrel I walk her for an hour a day and shes still overweight so I can't imagine how much exercise i'd need to give a greyhound to keep it trim !
They are the laziest dogs you ever met. They only need two 20minute walks a day. if you took a greyhound along with your mongrel for one hour a day that would be perfect. That's what our greyhound gets (at most an hour) and she's still thin as a rake!
The most Grateful, loving pet you'll ever have... It was only three years ago that we adopted our first grey. Our lives are absolutely
more complete with them here.They are a very special breed.Check out the YouTube clip "sleeping with greyhounds".I love my girls and I'm blessed to have them in our home.
what do you need to adopt i am not home from 5-5 3 days aweek the other two from 5-3 not here home on week end is this enough time i have a big yard no fences and huge huge fiels very nearby i am always out side running myself could they come with me? do they pee on the floor anyone sabe these questions?
Greyhounds are excellent pets and most are quite happy doing their own thing during the day - we work full time and simply make sure the dogs are walked every morning and every night - plus our neighbour goes in at lunchtimes to let the dogs out to relive themselves - we have never had any problems. we leave the dogs with toys, rawhide chews and the radio on ...and when we set up a video in the house to see what they got up to during the day - its was mainly sleeping !!
Me and my wife are with an adoption group.Have 3 of our own and foster,which means getting them prepared to go to a loving home .If ever given the chance to meet one please do it you will understand.Please contact your local greyhound adoption group
I live in England and have two rescued Greyhounds who have changed my life. They have brought total joy and meaning to my life. Such loyal gentle beautiful animals.
Hear Hear - resuce greyhounds just want to be loved - they are the gentlest breed of dog and I allways recommend them whenever I hear of somebody thinking about getting a dog ....
I have a retired racer,,3 races,,dead last,,she would have been euphanised too if not for adoption agencies and the people that work for them,,,check out greyhounds next time you want to adopt a pet
OMG thats horrible they treat them like trash this just breaks my heart to see these animals like this, why dont the people tht own them just keep them?
the people who train them are making an investment. thats all they care about. one of mine broke a hip-type bone while racing and the other was too social. they where gonna kill a them cuz they over raced one and the other wanted to play!
These are probably not even CLOSE to the "worst" pictures they could find. I foster for an animal rescue and I've seen more than my share of horrifying circumstances that occur. I have seen dogs and puppies with legs cut off, burned, been shot, dumped in a hole in the ground to be used as "blood bait" for fighting dogs, tortured as initiation into gangs, and the list unfortunately goes on; and don't even get me started on puppy mills! This stuff really does happen & people need to know about it!
your in america your greyhounds aint kept propely anyway even the good ones you need laws against dogs living cages kept on top of each other american greyhound complexs are a disgrace and i admit that and iam for the sport.
they need to take the poeple who do this and tie there legs open and beats them in the balls and leavem there to starv to death

Because of the evil done to animals just to make evil people money because of their ignorant greed, I am hoping WW3 happens in the near future and every single human being burns on the earth and suffers, its looking promising to, especially with the current unrest in the world :) Humans are despicable. Come on nature cause more millions more to suffer :) (fingers crossed)

@ska7979 u know greyhounds are from Africa right?
novelenterprise 1 year ago
@novelenterprise a lot of people think they're from Egypt because they look similar to Salukis, Pharaoh, and Ibizan Hounds but afaik they're actually from Europe around Ireland and Scotland. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure they were celtic dogs pretty closely related to Scottish Deerhound and the Irish Wolfound.

To be an unwanted greyhound must be one of the saddest things in the world. All dogs love to be loved and receive love in return, they want to be a loyal friend to someone who cares for them.

Please ban Greyhound racing - these dogs are bred for only one reason, money from racing - a very small percentage are adopted. None are bred as pets, and this the finiest and about the oldest of dog breeds deserves more. Adoption is wonderful for the lucky few, but what about the others who never have joy in their lives.

I totally agree with you! Yes, only a very few make it to be pets, while thousands are killed!!
banracing 3 years ago 2
So you think not a single greyhound is bred as a pet? Are you mad? How do you think greyhounds got here in the first place, they are a working breed, bred for that purpose. If racing stopped, the breed would decrease in size and they wouldnt be bred for ability, but looks. To me this completely undiminded the greyhound an denies it of what its bred for. Take a look at Bull terriers of most breeds, it was once a ,athletic,proud, loyal and human friendly type. Now they are fat, attacking
scousejohn06 3 years ago
kids and owners. This would never of happened with a working bull breed as it wouldn't be taunted in a family environments, denied the energy releases it would have got whilst "working" and training. They are now bred for looks rather than characteristics and you get breeding there manbiter with fluffy down the road who growls at dogs no matter what the owner does. But they are excuses by there stupid owners, a working dog would never be tolerated for human aggression etc and rightly so
scousejohn06 3 years ago
Yes I have read that somewhere, that the only greyhounds are racing dogs and a few show dogs. Would love to hear if that is wrong. ANd breeding for looks is better than breeding for racing. Their hair and skin are so thin it is easy to get knicked, their thin long legs easily,broken if any fat the legs can't hold them up so they sensitive to all butmild weather. All so they can run faster.
esgranny 3 years ago
breeding for looks is not better than breeding for racing you bloody idiot...do you know they put brother over sister and father over daughter, for looks??? maybe you should look into it a little more, dogs bred for looks are usually inbred, the same as ridgebacks you think the bigger the ridge the better the dog, do you know the bigger the ridge the worse the spinabifida is..at least in greyhound breeding they have a database so you can look at the test mating before breeding which will show u

you are right, and I never meant to mean that was better, but there was no reason for you to get so ugly about it - I hope this hateful rampage is because you are against all animal cruelty instead of defending how greyhounds are treated. That is how I read it the first time but upon rereading maybe not. Sadly it is easier to find animals that are treated a lot worse than greyhounds, I just happened tohave lived with one for eight years,

actually greyhounds are a hound breed along with the borzoi.and get ur facts rite. if u havent noticed we are talking about greyhounds not bull terriers. also the bull terrier is not fat and attacking. my best friend has 1 called kia and she is the most friendliest dogi have ever met. think before u type next time. but i do agree with u when you say that the breed would decrease in size and they wouldnt be bred for ability, but looks.....................

I also wanted to say this video is a work of art, it shows the sadness of the greyhounds lost to the miserable captivity of their owners racing aspirations, then the happy endings of those that are rescued to wonderful loving arms & families. If only they could all experience the better side of human nature. This world needs to stop exploiting the voiceless & treat animals as friends, they are precious creatures that deserve our protection and care. Please speak up for them & share this film.

Until we stop using animals as 'sport' and 'entertainment' objects, we will never be able to prevent the abuse of these wonderful dogs and it's the same for circus animals. The trouble with human beings is that many really only 'see' animals when they are gaining from them financially but to be truly compassionate we must have empathy for all species and the right to live a safe and happy life from birth to death.

Everyone should adopt before they buy a puppy, that is my personal opinion. Dogs are ever faithful and they don't deserve what so many humans do to them.

happywhenimsad 3 years ago
I'm sorry but I disagree with you, I worked in an animal shelter with well over 30 dogs and took care of them. Its not that hard, and anything that involves using a dog for the pure humor or snobbish tendancies to makind is wrong. Dogs are man's best friend, not man's most loyal slave. I am afraid that you need to open your eyes. And we are not talking about when they are still racing, we are talking about when they are retired and outlived their use to their owners.

Well, take a closer look. He is talking about when they are still racing and at the race tracks!!! This is not to say that they all treat them this way, but the GREAT MAJORITY do. Those imagines where not posed for the fun of it. These poor retired racing greyhounds have all the physical and psychological wounds to show for what they go through. It is amazing they can ever trust a human ever again.

It's not so much that happens at the track while they're racing, who would abuse a dog that might make you money. It's what happens to them when they are deemed no longer of use for racing. They're NOT euthanized, they're turned over to an individual for disposal, mand trust me, he's not going to spend any of his blood money on doing it humanely.

Pt 2-They're ALL special; some have recovery needs that take time & patience. Worth it? YOU BET! In their racing lives, they're passed from owner, to trainer, to walker, to vet, etc. People come & go. When they go home with you, it takes them time to realize they're not leaving again- when you leave, you ALWAYS come back, and you are THEIRS! That's the best- they know they're HOME, they begin to trust, and joyfulness awakens. In Jan. we lost one at 14. We grieved. We'll adopt another, lucky us!

My hubby & I've adopted Greyhounds since '94. #1, from anxiety, chewed the bars on her track cages, all her front teeth were little brown nubs. #2, before we got her, lived a year at a vet clinic as blood donor for other dogs (they also cut her vocal cords-they call it "debarking"). #3, a small brindle girl abused at a racer training farm, so terrified she almost was put down after rescue. #4, has only one eye and was recovering from a badly set broken leg when we got him. Pt 1-To be continued.

They used to tie monkeys on thier backs to run them.

Greyhounds are excellent pets and most are quite happy doing their own thing during the day - we work full time and simply make sure the dogs are walked every morning and every night - plus our neighbour goes in at lunchtimes to let the dogs out to relive themselves - we have never had any problems. we leave the dogs with toys, rawhide chews and the radio on ...and when we set up a video in the house to see what they got up to during the day - its was mainly sleeping !!
