600 Hounds

This came from a friend tonight.

> Hi Everyone, The Woodlands Racetrack in Kansas City is closing
> August 24th. I have spoken with REGAP (Retired Greyhounds as Pets)
> here in Kansas City. There are 600 Greyhounds at the track.
> Greyhound rescue estimates they will be able to get 200 into the
> rescue network. The Woodlands is one of the last stop race tracks in
> the Greyhound racing industry, the remaining 400 will be 'returned'
> to the breeders and likely put-to-sleep. They are needing as much
> help as they can get for fosters, adoptions, transports,
> etc. PLEASE contact them if you can help and forward to friends you
> know who may be able to help, as well.
>
> REGAP can be reached at 816-763-3333.
> Thanks! Sarah
