Greyhound Adoption Month

Dear Friends,

 

The month of March was one of our biggest ever on record! After GREY2K USA supporters convinced Fox & Friends to stop promoting dog racing at the Palm Beach Kennel Club, a bill to phase out greyhound racing was approved by the Florida Senate and another bill banning steroids in greyhounds passed in two House and one Senate Committee. In West Virginia, we await word on the next steps for our bill to repeal a $15 million dog racing subsidy. Best of all, in Kansas, we helped block legislation to re-open three dog tracks in the state!

 

In honor of Greyhound Adoption Month, and to celebrate these victories, we would like to invite you to enter our greyhound video contest. Show the world why you love your hound! ​

Three easy steps to enter:

  • Make a short video of your greyhound and upload it to your Facebook page. Be sure to include the hashtag #lovegreyscontest in your post.
     
  • Please like our Facebook page and tag @GREY2KUSA in your post if you can, too.
     
  • Make your video public when you post it and by entering you give GREY2K USA permission to use and share.​

The video with the most likes by April 27 will win a beautiful “Greyhounds Fly Free” 11 x 14 in print by Beverly Jean Roberts, jeweled notecards and your choice of a blue campaign shirt or a pink “Save the Greyhounds” tee.  ​

Thank you to everyone who responded to action alerts and called on lawmakers to support our campaigns. We would also like to thank Care2 for honoring GREY2K USA with its 2017 Impact Award for our work prohibiting dog racing in Arizona last year!
