Shake N Bake! There’s nothing like racing with your best buddy (who is also a rescue dog) at the dog park. We can put the hurt on some zoomies. #zoomies #zoomiesfordays #dogpark #dogparklife #racingdogs #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedog #labmix #labmixesofinstagram #adoptdontshop #adoptdontshop🐾 #tennessee #happydog #happydogs #happydoghappylife #doglife (at Franklin, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH-dJFmh_HJ/?igshid=1xtx4m0hs09v4

The dogs are starting to move in on me. I fear I may not have much more time.

Might be going to the Grey2K rally this sunday

The big game is scheduled for February 5, but shoe company Skecherscontinues to market the "humor" of its upcoming Super Bowl ad featuring dogs racing at Tucson Greyhound Park (TGP). Please join us this Saturday and Sunday for a national weekend of rallies at Skechers stores and/or resellers nationwide. Greyhound advocates like Theresa Boostrom of Michigan REGAP know how the Tucson dogs suffer. Listen to her speak on their behalf at a Skecher's rally earlier this week. TGP's greyhounds are kept confined in small cages which are barely large enough for them to stand up or turn around. They are fed raw 4-D meat, the meat of downed, diseased, disabled or dead livestock. These conditions were documented in recent inspections byPima County investigators and by a GREY2K USAundercover video first released in 2010. Additionally, the state of Arizona documented nearly 1,000 injuries in the last reported years of 2007- 2009. (The state has refused to provide injury records since our initial release of these statistics). The most common injury was a broken leg, and other reported injuries included fractures, sprains, dislocations, muscle tears and strains, lacerations, a cracked skull, broken backs, heat stroke, puncture wounds and paralysis. Instead of promoting such cruelty, companies should be asking for it to end. The greyhounds need you to take action now! It is not too late to convince Skechers to pull the TGP footage from its ad. "No Skechers" events will take place this weekend from coast to coast, including: Tucson (AZ) Skechers Store, Saturday, Jan. 28, 11:30 am - 1 pm 3175 N. Campbell Avenue – SW corner of Campbell & Ft.

Finally, please remember that as you read these words hundreds and hundreds of gentle greyhounds are suffering at Tucson Greyhound Park. Shut up in their dark, lonely cages, they will never know how many people love them and are working to rescue them now.
