	Greyhound Racing Facts
		Greyhound racing constitutes animal abuse because of the industry's excessive surplus breeding practices, the often cruel methods by which unwanted dogs are destroyed, the daily conditions in which many dogs are forced to live, and the killing and maiming of bait animals, such as rabbits, during training exercises.
		Racing greyhounds spend the majority of their adult lives in crates or pens or in fenced enclosures.
		Greyhound racing is a form of gaming in which the amount of money a dog generates determines his or her expendability.
