I am all for that. WIth the push to shut it down from all the diffrent Greyhound activist did anyone consider what would happen to them once they shut down. I see all the diffrent agencies saying everyone should help but nobody is stepping up to the plate. I went to GAIN today and was almost in tears counting the bones on the spine and the ribbs on their side. I watched bare flesh showing as though they had been dragged on the pavement or had skin problems. This sickens me. Stop preaching about abusing dogs. I see it everyday here on Guam the Guam Governments turns there head to it. Cock fighting is still legal here. Nothing is done but Guam is suppose to be under US control, however they have there own laws and customs rule law. Its not what you know on Guam it is who you know. These Greyhounds need help and they need it now. Gain is not going to be able to handle this large amount of animals. This is my personal opinion. Thanks for whatever you do to assist.

NOW, Guam racing is/was done with live dogs. First reports from park management were that there were several dozen dogs being well cared for at the park. There are actually over 200 dogs, park owners say they are looking for adoptive homes, unless they can sell them to another racing concern in the Phiippines or Australia. The population of Guam is about 150,000 - most of these dogs will NOT find good homes on Guam. They need your help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOSBwvXbrBE Other reports are that many are lose, dead on the streets and/or euthanized with broken bones. Please do whatever you can to help these dogs. momonguam111@hotmail.com First a correction – its JOHN Baldwin, not James (sorry Jim!). NOW, Guam racing is/was done with live dogs.

They are in bad shape, some dead from dehydration, at least one with a broken leg. Local lovers are looking for solutions. Please encourage the park owners, Bridge Capital LLC and James Baldwin to pay GAIN (Guam Animals In Need) to take over the care and placement of these beautful beasts. http://guam.mvarietynews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2786:guam-greyhound-urged-to-partner-with-gain&catid=1:guam-local-news&Itemid=2 The dogs are all but abandoned.
