greyhoundPresident Speaks, Spring 2010

Hey, it's finally SPRING! And that means cleaning and out with the old and in with the new "stuff" for a fresh  new summer look. Thus, "THE GARAGE SALE!"
 
Volunteers are needed to help set up Friday 6/25 Noon- 5:00. AND Saturday 6/26 to host and help sell, total tickets, etc! Please let Cindy, Deb or me know that you will be there! In Chicago, contact Cassie Shogren at cass_shogren@sbcglobal.net!
 
This has been an expensive year, thus far, for the hounds. Broken legs, track rot, surgeries and an amputation, a bleeding disorder, several serious panels of tests, as well as the usual medications, dewormers and dog food! We've also moved dogs from Dairyland and Pensacola to Indy and other states! We've found some fantastic homes but have many others ready for homes now!!!!!
 
USA DOG needs a financial shot in the arm and I hope the one and only GREAT AMERICAN GREYHOUND GARAGE SALE  will be just the ticket! Please download and make copies of the attachment to place around Indy. And look for our ad in IndyTails, out now (June issue).

Another way to help everyday!  Go to www.theanimalrescuesite.comthe SHELTER CHALLENGE! Type in "greyhound" in the Shelter Name section and select "IN" for the state. This should list USA DOG and just click on "vote" to help us out! Make a daily donation! The contest runs through August 22! So, add it to your FAVS, and click everyday!
 
One more quick bit of news: GREYHOUND RACING IS DOWN FROM 16 STATES TO ONLY 7! That is live racing and simulcasting!  We are winning the war to curtail the business. But you know that means more dogs in urgent need of homes!
 
Please check our NEW Website for regular updates. A SPRING Newsletter is possible now that all active legislation has concluded long enough for an accurate report! Check out Events and Our Companions, too.
 
2010 GGG October 23!!!!! Plan NOW to attend! (There will be dancing...not pretty...but lots of fun!)
 
So download the Flyer now by clicking here and help support our cause! And Please let one of us know that we'll see you at the GARAGE SALE!
 
Thanks & Hug those Hounds!
