Grey2K - More Hypocrisy!

Grey2K is an organization founded on hypocrisy.


Grey2K complains when a greyhound is humanely euthanized but the President, Christine Dorchak, is a PeTA supporter and has participated in PeTA protests.  Dorchak counts Ingrid Newkirk, who has stated she has personally destroyed adoptable pets, among her friends.  And, in case y'all don't know, PeTA kills just about all of the pets which come into its hands, voluntarily or by unethical means: theft, lies, etc.  PeTA has killed many tens of thousands of animals.



Interesting that Grey2K is ok with crate sizes of 24"W x 36"L and 32"H. Yet, they have a problem with the larger crates at the tracks. Crates that have a mandated size for the track of  
34"W x 42"D x 32"H.  Go figure...  Could it be that they don't have a problem with the smaller crates because that is the size recommended by them and other animal rights zealots such as those at the ASPCA?  See page 2.  http://www.grey2kusa.org/…/Florida_Rule_61D-2.023_Animal_We…

Excerpt from Page 2, FL Rule 61D-2.023 Animal Weelfar

Please remember, those fanatics are claiming that the dogs cannot stand up or lay down comfortably in the larger crate size. 



Grey2K and its supporters complain about racing dog folks "making money off the backs of the hounds", yet they rake in high dollar salaries on those same dogs with lies, innuendo, and propaganda.

Grey2K's monies distribution, including salaries

This pie chart indicates the percentages of salaries & other compensation that the Grey2K President, Dorchak, and Vice President, Theil (her husband), receive from the organization.  Pie chart is based on the 2013 IRS Form 990, which was filed by Grey2K. 

And another outstanding example of the Grey2K hypocrisy is found in the form of Grey2K Director Emeritus, Jill Hopfenbeck DVM.  Dr. Jill is a vet. She also owns and competes with whippets.  Her whippets compete in conformation (breed ring), lure coursing, obedience, and....  get this.....  amateur RACING! 

If Dr. Hopfenbeck is so against greyhound racing, why does she race her whippets???  She's  obviously very proud  of them, as she should be.  Just as the racing people, those she has been trying to destroy for years, are proud of their dogs & their dogs accomplishments, or lack there of.  Talk about a case of  "don't do as I do; do as I say"!  Oh, if you don't believe she races her dogs, Goggle "Hopfenbeck Whippet Racing".  Look for yourself.

There are many more examples of Grey2K's hypocrisy. These, however, are to me the most glaring.


Here's a quote from a racing man, Craig Randle, "Funny how anti-racing people profess their love and caring nature, but they are some of the meanest natured, foul-mouthed, hypocritical people who ever sat in front of a keyboard!"



Yours in greyhounds...

  1. I have seen Grey$ in action, and I am another one who has been actually locked up in a racing kennel at the track along with an All-American greyhound who wanted me in there in his nest to give him belly rubs..My trainer friend flipped the door shut... I am 5'3" and at that time weighed about 170 pounds... We snugged, and I got kisses while he got his belly rubs. Wish I had a picture of that.. I also had one of those 'dead greyhounds' that never raced so it had 'obviously been killed.' One little trouble with that story they try to use; Sheba was 8 months old, her litter had been registered as required by the NGA, but she was never raced, and was given to me by the owner/breeder. I was on his farm and wandered all over, including in the whelping area...and saw nothing but happy, silly greyhounds who were used to people. Even Sheba, a puppy, was completely comfy with people..Wonder why... Maybe because there were always people around and paying attention to them....
