With the ban's passage last week (57 percent to 43 percent), commercial dog racing will be phased out in Massachusetts by 2010.
On November 4th, MA voters passed The Greyhound Protection Act There are two dog tracks in the state--each of which is believed to currently house about 1,000 greyhounds. Because the phase-out will occur over a period of 14 months, greyhound advocacy groups such as Grey2K USA are confident that they will be able to find homes for any racing dogs who become available for adoption. Dog racing has already been banned in Vermont, Idaho, Washington, North Carolina, Virginia, Nevada and Pennsylvania. Source: ASPCA 2 CommentsLeave a comment |

YEA! And like Donna said, thanks to the Greyhound rescues for their hard work! I hope they are able to find loving forever homes for these beautiful dogs!
