Why would a greyhound adoption group support greyhound racing? 

Because we have 20+ years of experience with the breed. And know the truth! 

Animal Activists have spread lies about racing for years, anything to scam donations out of good, caring people. These organizations actually do nothing for greyhounds or adoption, spending their money on their own high salaries, travel and lobbying. 

Our volunteers have been to most of the tracks in the country, and many of the greyhound farms. We see the care and love greyhounds get from their owners and trainers. We know greyhounds LOVE nothing more than chasing the lure. They don't care if they win or lose, they don't care if their owner makes money or loses it. Greyhounds love the job they have been bred to do for thousands of years - chase! They only race once every 4 or 5 days for around 30 seconds at a time. Most of our dogs start racing at 1.5 years old and retire at 2 or 3. 

Adoption groups across the country have waiting lists of adopters waiting on adult greyhounds to retire. Every racer has a home to go to after their career is over! These adopters don't want to buy greyhounds puppies and raise them themselves. They don't want mixed breed rescues. They want adult greyhounds that are wonderful pets because of the way they are raised and handled during their racing career. Ending racing, ends the supply of these wonderful dogs for a lot of wonderful families. 
Racing is a win for adopters and the dogs!
