A Greyhound's PleaWon't Someone give me a chance to live, I've so much love I want to give. I won't dirty the house or chew your things, There's so much love a Greyhound can bring.I'll go for walks or just lie around, I promise not to make a sound. I'm not stupid or naughty - I'm really quite good All I need is a bed and some nice food.You won't regret it, in fact you'll be happy, I'm lovely and playfull; at times a bit wacky! You'll soon be smitten, in fact delighted, To have a Greyhound like me, you'll be excited.We're lovely creatures and affectionate too All I want is a home, please give me one, do! Indian legend says: "When a human dies there is a bridge they must cross to enter into Heaven. At the head of that bridge waits every animal that human encountered during their lifetime. The animals, based on what they know of this person, decides which humans may cross the bridge...and which are turned away."
Let's see, We have many things we like to do!!! Sleep, Roaching, chew bones, sleep with mommy in bed!!! chase the kitties, Going for car rides , EAT, and EAT more!! FOOD!!! THE DOG PARK!!! There are just too many to list!!! Educating people about why we are such wonderful gentle 45 MPH couch tatters!! Trying to stop GREYHOUND RACING!!!Like Animals (Lyrics by Leslie Bricusse)
From the original Dr. Doolittle movie.Why do we treat animals like animals?
Animals treat us so very well
The devoted way they serve us and protect us
When we're nervous they really don't deserve us
All we give them is HellWhy do we treat animals like animals?
How can people be so inhumane?
What do we do we neglect them we do nothing
To protect them we reject them
Don't expect them to complainWhen will we stop treating them like animals?
How can human beings cause so much pain?
We ignore them or we beat them
When we're hungry then we eat them,
It's appalling how we treat them - it's insaneI do not understand the human race
That has so little love for creatures with a different faceWe humiliate and murder and confine them
We create their wretched status
Then we use it to malign them
When you dress in suede or leather
Or some fancy fur or feather
Do you stop and wonder whether for a Fad
You have killed some beast or other
That you're wearing someone's Brother
Or perhaps it's someone's Mother in which you're cladWe've made the whole world a zoo,
For Man is an animal too./

MEL THE NEEDLE MANDon't mourn for me when I am dead,
I was raced for greed, I'm Irish bred.
No one cared if I lived or died,
I raced and lost, my owner sighed."He's got to go, I need the space,
I've a faster hound I want to race."
At the end of the night there comes a van,
Driven by Mel the needle man.One by one we're pushed inside,
Jabbed by the needle, there's nowhere to hide,
There is no escape, just fear and pain.
I'll never see the track again.Dead bodies are heaped at the rear of the van,
Killed by Mel the needle man.
The dog before me yelps and bites,
But he's kicked in the guts, he's lost his fight.Now it's my turn to go, I'm sick with fear,
I see dead bodies at the rear.
My legs grow weak, I hit the ground,
Who gives a damn, I'm just a Greyhound!(There is a van that goes around the race tracks, and at the end of the evening, dogs that haven't performed well are killed in the back of the van for just ten pounds. So if you care about anything, do what you can to ensure that retired racing Greyhounds have a future and not a death sentence.)
If you live in one of the dark purple states, that means that there is one or more active greyhound racing track in your state. Please visit www.grey2kusa.org and click on "take action" to find out what you can do in your state to help end greyhound racing for good.
Even if you don't live in one of the dark purple states, you can still help.
"Hi Human friends...I have no name, I'm in a pound
somewhere!!
It's very crowded here and they say my fellow canines will be dieing because no one wants them.!!!!I want them to live, I want to live.
But that isn't possible unless a human wants us.Help me please. Tell others we are here.
Tell them there are millions of us that will not see the sunny sky again very soon!!!Thank you for reading my humble request....please tell more humans please"!!!!

You can't change the world by taking in a greyhound, but you can change the
world for that one greyhound.A RESCUED GREYHOUND'S STORY.Here in this house...
I will never know the loneliness I hear in the barks of the other
dogs 'out there'.
I can sleep soundly, assured that when I wake, my needs will be
met.
I will never know hunger, or the fear of not knowing if I'll eat.
I will not shiver in the cold, or grow weary from the heat.
My fur will shine, and never be dirty or matted.Here in this house...
There will be an effort to communicate with me on my level.
I will be talked to, and even if I don't understand,
I can enjoy the warmth of the words.
I will be given a name so that I may know who I am.
My name will be used in joy, and I will love the sound of it!Here in this house...
I will never suffer for someone's anger, impatience, or stupidity.
I will be taught all the things I need to know to be loved by all.
If I do not learn my lessons well, they will look to my teacher
for blame.Here in this house...
I can trust arms that hold and hands that touch...
knowing that, no matter what they do, they do it for the good of
me.
If I am ill, I will be doctored.
If scared, I will be calmed.
If sad, I will be cheered.Here in this house.....
No matter what I look like, I will be considered beautiful and
valuable.
I will never be cast out because I am too old, too ill or not
cute enough.
My life is a responsibility...... not an afterthought.
I will learn that humans can be kind and fair.Here in this house...
I am finally home.
