Off-Topic: Greyhounds

Hello all! As the title has warned you, this post is not about wildlife conservation. Today, I want to shed some light on another issue. 

I don't talk too much about myself on my blog here, but I will tell you that I share my home, and my heart, with a rescued greyhound who was retired from a racing track. Since we got her, my family has become more aware of the cruelty these animals face. 

Right now, there is an international movement to close down the Canidrome, a racetrack off of mainland China, where there is no rescue program. No dog gets out alive. Even while racing, these poor greyhounds suffer malnutrition, illness, and open wounds without any sort of treatment or proper care. Please take a moment and go to www.grey2kusa.org to sign their petition. 

Thanks guys! I'll be back with more wildlife blogs shortly!
