Rescuers say that at shelters, tan or light- haired dogs are always adopted before the dogs with darkfur. How superficial! My black lab is the most sensitive dog I've ever had, and just wants hugs, pillows and to play fetch.

GREYHOUNDS, RABBITS NEED HOMES One breed of dog that really needs help from compassionate people are greyhounds from racetracks. I do not support greyhound racing. Animals shouldn't spend the majority of their lives in cages only to be let out once in a while to run a lap, and then forced back behind steel bars. They should run whenever the heck they feel like it And, when racing greyhounds dorit make a buck, they're usually kuled — often when they're just two to fiveyears old. Nice life, eh?' Greyhounds are big couch potatoes, they would rather cuddle man run, rfyou would like to meet one, and maybe save one too, visit the Retired Greyhounds as Pets (REGAP) booth at the Ann Arbor Art Fair through July 19. REGAPwill be in the non-profit area on liberty Street, near 5th Street Or visit diem at www.reseuedgrey~ hounds.com REGAP needs people willing to foster greyhounds. They need gentle families willing to teach the dogs how to walk up and down stairs, and reassure the dogs that no one will hurt them. Greyhounds will follow you throughout the house once they've gained trust They give love and seek gentle affection. REGAP also needs families wiH- ing to adopt these sweet and often silly dogs who normally love other dogs too. Many are good with cats. REGAP will help you choose a dogbestfor your family. Its a fantastic group that drives across the country to help these dogs — and they are all local volunteers.
