KENOSHA (WAOW) -- If you're looking to adopt a 4 legged friend, you might want to think about adopting a greyhound.
The Dairyland Greyhound Park is closing their doors at the end of 2009 and is looking for happy homes for their dogs.
According to their website, www.dairylandgreyhoundpark.com, "Wisconsin State law provides that the greyhounds are to be adopted to new homes, sent to another racetrack for racing purposes or returned to their owners. Our kennel compound will remain open until all greyhounds are properly placed.
We do not know at this current time how many greyhounds in total will become available for adoption until we finish racing on December 31st, 2009.
We do currently have greyhounds available for adoption in our adoption center. You are more than welcome to fill out an application at Dairyland or online at our website www.dairylandgreyhoundpark.com under the adoption tab at the top of the webpage."
Also, according to the Chicago Sun Times, the track's manager denied claims that the dogs are being euthanized.
