These dogs have small bones in their feet, buch thinner than most other breeds I'd imagine. Are you going to call me.. well, whatever names that have been bantied about because I LET my dog do what she LOVES doing? While I'm at it.. here's a couple pics of her the day she was running...

Looks like a happy hound to me
And hile the guy may well not have been lying.. as I'm sure he felt he was giving the full hot order...I'd venture a guess that he's a staunch AR type that is a card carrying GPL member.

Ironically I met a rescued racer this evening at Petsmart when we went to get Tank a snail. Her name was Daisy and she was sickly thin (still needing to gain 15+ lbs), had a to the bone injury on her right front leg, and had a scary looking old injury to her left shoulder that was never treated and thus the muscle atrophied and so the formerly broken bone healed so that it sticks out. She was scratched and bruised all over. She's been in her foster home for 2 weeks and is adjusting to all the things that she should have been acclimated to as a puppy, such as furniture, mirrors, doorbells, air conditioner noises, etc.
This dog was horribly abused, even if she was never hit.
The husband is the President of Greyhounds Unlimited. I doubt he's lying about the atrocities these animals face. I doubt he's lying about what he deals with EVERY DAY. What he sees on a DAILY BASIS.
Why would ANYONE continue to breed animals KNOWING they’ll just turn them over rescuers in the end? WHY?
It’s all about the almighty dollar.
SICK.
Here's a pic of Daisy from their website:
