From and article by: Ms T Baker Co-ordinator, www.greytexploitations.com (which has that fabulous Racism=Speciesism=Sexism graphic on its front page) Dougie is the third greyhound in as many months – which we know of – to have been subjected to this kind of attack but sadly, he was the only one to survive.
Someone wrote me and, though the person clearly was trolling to insult someone, s/he accused me of not being a vegan because of greyhounds Violet Rays and Charles Hobson Booger, III (no mention of Emily, which made me feel terribly neglectful).

mikey, my stance can be seen in the posts about Project Treadstone (and if you type Project Treadstone into the Google Search box just below my half-blind, diabetic greyhound, Violet Rays, on the right, you'll get a dozen more posts). And when the option is rounding them up and killing them, TNR looks like an especially attractive option.
Life coach and “Biggest Loser&# fitness trainer Jillian Michaels whips contestants into shape, but when it comes to 14-month-old greyhound mix Seven, she is at a loss. Jillian is afraid Seven will get hurt or even killed by Buzz and hopes Cesar can ride in to save the day.
And then it proceeds to: "None of these questions, however, make any consideration of whether it is wrong to kill animals for human consumption."

Legislation forbidding cruelty to animals represents the use of coercion against the interests of the individual coerced, and not to further the interests of any other person (it may do so but need not to be justified).
There will be no greyhound corpse on our table, no turkey corpse and no pig corpse. When in the position of having the choice, which so far is always, I'd rather choose not to have someone killed for me. This is a tough one to even dignify as it's not a good reason for killing someone. But we can bring our story to that world.
I'm not sure why he thinks we "appear" to be effective, as I can't think of one campaign that I've supported, other than the banning of greyhound racing in individual states, that has actually succeeded. Notwithstanding their local tactical victories, are animal rights protesters really as effective as they appear?
Some of these discussions make me think: Boy, that Rick Berman, that FBI, those people who spend their lives using and killing animals for fun and profit--don't need to do much to bring this movement down because we're doing it ourselves. And embarrassing. I understand the need for critique and productive criticism within a movement.
On a very quiet night during a lull in the drama of the ducks, I was researching the Greyhound racing industry, and seething over its treatment of dogs as well as the support it often gets, through subsidies, to help it survive. I followed his call, but so did Emily The Hunter.
The life expectancy of greyhounds is 12-15 years. He told me to stop going to the vet because that's what was killing Violet Rays. There she is. She has beaten the odds and made it another year. If they've raced, you subtract a year for each year of racing. Her eyes were vacant.
Breeds with very short fur like Chihuahuas, boxers and greyhounds may have a hard time keeping warm, making even brief walks uncomfortable. Even a small amount can kill. Besides bathroom breaks and daily exercise, it’s best to keep your pet safe and toasty inside your home. Watch Out for Antifreeze. Check Under the Hood.
