SECTION 3.Greyhounds Suffer Serious InjuriesAdoption groups often receive greyhounds that have been injuredIn a 2009 news report, then-president John Clark of Arizona Greyhound Rescue indicated that his group oftenreceived injured dogs:“Some come off the track with injuries … last year we took in four dogs withbroken legs at $3,000 each.” 67In another news report, Arizona Greyhound Rescue communications director Patti Pate indicated that in 2009the group spent $63,000 on medical expenses. 68Some greyhounds are euthanized due to injuries that are not life threateningThere is evidence that greyhounds are euthanized after suffering injuries which are not life-threatening. In2007 a greyhound trainer was suspended for two weeks and fined $500 after he tried to save the life of agreyhound that had suffered a broken leg. 69 After the dog was hurt, greyhound trainer David Blair, who wasintoxicated at the time, offered to take the greyhound for rehabilitation and adoption, but the owner of thedog refused. 70 At a public hearing several days later, a track veterinarian testified that she had previously sentother greyhounds home with Blair who had suffered far more severe injuries than Pa’s Mismakamess.” 71On May 26, 2009 a two-year-old black greyhound namedBella Kingnarmer suffered a broken leg after he wasbumped by other dogs during a race at Tucson GreyhoundPark. As a result of his injury, his leg was amputated.Photograph by the Greyhound Breeding and Racing Database67 Nannini.68 Presnell.69 J.D.
