Thanks Senator Tom Lee for your law proposal to ban racing in Florida!
Our letter from Pet Levrieri to US Senator Tom Lee, to thank him for his law proposal to ban racing in Florida, which, if it succeeds, will bring the end of greyhound racing in the whole of the US closer.
Dear Senator Tom Lee,
We would like to send you our heartfelt appreciation and thanks for the law proposal relating to the closure of dog racing tracks in Florida.
This important step marks a turning point in relation to this outdated industry, which is contrary to the most basic notions of respect towards greyhounds who, quite apart from their speed, are truly splendid and exceptional dogs. Our association and the families who adopt greyhounds from us support all initiatives aiming to put an end to greyhound racing, particularly those of GREY2K USA Worldwide, who are recognised world leaders in the fight against the exploitation of greyhounds at racetracks.
We are aware that the end of dog racing in Florida will bring ever closer the end of greyhound racing in the whole of the US and in the few countries where this so called ‘sport’ is still legally practised. We therefore fervently hope and pray that your initiative will be successful.
With our very best wishes
Stefania Traini President of Pet Levrieri, Italy
