2 career ending injuries for Tucson racing greyhounds – March 7, 2008
Two years ago today March 7, 2008, two dogs were injured at Tucson Greyhound Park according to the Arizona Department of Racing injury report compiled by Grey2K. (Adobe Acrobat)
Boc’s Country Boy had suffered a muscle tear in his right rear. This was a career ending injury but nothing is listed as treatment. Dog injured. Is that a let-the-rescue-groups deal with this expense type of thing?
According to the data website. What happened to Country Boy after 89 races?
On the same day Kay V Stark also suffered a muscle tear in her right rear, again another career ending injury. Again, no treatment listed. Again probably a problem for the rescue groups if she’s lucky.
According to the data website, this poor girl ran 132 races. What happened to Kay V Stark? Did she end up on someone’s couch or not?
What the hell was going on here that two dogs suffer the same injury in the same place and end their careers because of this same injury? Contact savetucsongreyhounds@gmail.com if you have a clue.
