The Proof is in the Pictures

As the age old saying goes - "a picture is worth a thousand words," which is why we include many photographs here of cruelty and neglect inflicted upon greyhounds used for parimutuel dog racing. Others document the condition in which many of these "athletes" arrive at adoption placement facilities.

These photographs are very disturbing, but we use them because they show the truth like nothing else. May they help bring change to ensure that other gentle greyhounds do not endure a similar fate.
