New from Galt-Greyhound Adoption League of Texas

Share 
 This was recently produced and published to You Tube by GALT, an adoption organization doing great work in Texas.  I have seen many movies produced about greyhounds and their situations....this one in my opinion is exceptional.  Thanks to GALT and all the adoption groups who give tirelessly to give greyhounds a better life.



Locally, those looking to adopt a greyhound or donate can also go to Greyhound Rescue and Rehabilitation.

Petition to Stop Ad to Air on Super Bowl Promoting Dog Racing!!!!

Share

Skechers is planning to air an ad during the Super Bowl that advocates greyhound dog racing. Please go to the Grey 2 K site and help stop the cruelty to greyhounds. Help in any way you can. You can start by signing a petition to stop the Super Bowl ad. If you have ever seen a racetrack dog kennel and the horrible conditions these poor hounds must endure, you know what I mean. If not...take a look at this undercover report featured on the Grey 2K website of a kennel in Tucson, AZ.  This is unfortunately very typical of a greyhound's life as a racer.


 

 

Thank you for your interest. 
Here is a recent picture from the holidays of my two boys, Lion and Wizard. They were both adopted by me from the track when their racing life was finished.
