Ban Greyhound Racing in the US

Ban Greyhound Racing in the US

The Issue

At commercial racetracks across the country, thousands of dogs live in warehouse-style kennels, confined for long hours each day in cages barely large enough for them to stand up or turn around. Every year, thousands of dogs are seriously injured while racing, and thousands more are killed when they are no longer able to compete.

Please sign the petition below and urge your elected official to work on legislation to ban greyhound racing in your state.  BY doing so, you will help to prevent the breeding, confining, endangering, and killing of greyhounds.
