Dog racing is cruel and inhumane. At commercial racetracks, thousands of dogs endure lives of terrible confinement and suffer serious injuries.
In the racing industry, dogs are confined in small cages barely large enough for them to stand up or turn around for long hours each day. Hundreds of dogs are kept in warehouse style kennels at each track.
Thousands of dogs are killed when they are injured or are no longer fast enough to be profitable. According to a 2009 estimate from the pro-racing National Greyhound Association, as many as 3,000 greyhounds are killed annually.

I agree, Sonel. Cars are for racing – not dogs or horses. I do not like the way animals are treated in the circus or rodeo either. I hate any sport or entertainment industry that values money more than the welfare of the animal.
