I think the point is that not that a true American wouldn't condone this behavior, just that this kind of mindset is... well, I assume the fact that it is still considered newsworthy is evidence that it is not a mainstream opinion? I hope!

You can look him up here but I think you have to register for free to access the page that lists his races. He ran 15 races at Jacksonville and another 36 races at Orange Park. It shows him as pulled up in the last race because that's when he was injured. He had already broken a different leg at Bluff's Run before they shipped him off to Florida.

All kidding aside...
I registered at the link and was sifting through Holland Popeye's credentials. I was actually taken aback by the pedigree that's available. Lot's of Holland's in the names.

We said goodbye to a German Shepherd last year and have a ten year old Jack Russell. We have recently talked about adopting another dog. Your signature line and this conversation gives me pause for thought regarding the adoption of a greyhound. The three pictures I saw suggests that Holland Popeye is happy and playful. I will likely PM you to badger you about your experience with HP. I have enough yard for proper exercise and a dedicated area with a nice kennel (sweat and blood in that...he he), but my wife will demand that our adopted pet be indoors at least overnight, if you get my meaning. Are adopted greyhounds ok for indoors? Like I said, I will likely PM you with questions of this nature.

I don't know much about greyhounds, but I do know they need a lot of exercise. I'm sure keeping one inside would be fine as long as you have the time to take him to, let's say, a dog park for the majority of the week so it can get some exercise in. I like to let my dog run around in the volleyball court across the street. She is highly receptive to boundary training the the courts are lined in pipe, so I know she'll stay in there.
