Is there an effort among the extremist animal rights activists to shut down blogs that oppose their limited view?
One of our linked blogs seems to indicate so.
"RoryOlogy Information those who claim to be advocates and protectors of the greyhounds didn't want you to know or thoughts and ideas they didn't want you to consider."
We're waiting for their brain injured lawyer to bring it on!
So check back often for more details!
A Little Clarification...
A couple folks have written us and asked us why we are so "pro-racing".
We're not pro-racing.
We're PRO-GREYHOUND!
Retired racing greyhounds are the most unique companion animals. They are not like other dogs-- a mantra heard all the time among adoption groups. It's true! They're not at all like other dogs. This is because of the way they were raised and the experiences they had during their racing career. Raise a greyhound like you would any other dog, and you will not get the same temperament and personality you get in a retired racer.
The Massachusetts tracks were the most highly regulated in the entire country. But that is a thing of the past now. New Hampshire certainly needs better regulations for the housing and care of the hounds. Let's work on that rather than trying to wipe out an entire breed as we know it (and LOVE it!)

GREY2K USA & HSUS
There is an effort underway in New Hampshire to end greyhound racing in the state. They are calling it the Greyhound Protection Act. It is actually the Greyhound Termination Act, as if this bill passes, the breed of greyhounds as we know them will cease to exist. As a family that has adopted retired racers, we oppose this legislation. Contact your state representatives and let them know that you oppose this legislation, especially in these tough economic times.
Grey2K, the organization that lead a campaign to eradicate greyhound racing in Massachusetts, and is now lobbying state legislators in New Hampshire, receives the majority of their funding and support from The Humane Society of the United States. (HSUS) Sounds like a great organization right? Must kind of be like a national parent organization to my local Humane Society eh? I bet they save, house and shelter all kinds of animals right?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
The HSUS is a political action committee, that according to it own website, "protects all animals through legislation, litigation, investigation, education, advocacy and field work."
So, when they send you the cute little note pads and address labels in the mail and you send them a donation thinking that they save and shelter animals, you are contributing to the extremist animal rights groups like PETA which is a strategic partner with the HSUS.
