If we're at all serious about helping ensure a better future for animals, we have to start demanding much more from ourselves than we have previously. We have to dedicate ourselves to effective campaigning. We have to support local grass-roots struggles, both in the streets and with donations. We have to choose our targets strategically, with a mind to bottlenecks. In any case, we need to do more! Tired of HEARING about animal activism and want to actually DO something?  Well, this is the group …

Greyhound Meetup There are so few organized social groups for rescued greyhounds and their owners in NJ. That is why I wanted to start this group. Greyhounds can socialize with each other in relaxed environments such as beaches, parks, or other appropriate venues. I think rescued greyhounds should interact with other greyhounds as often as possible. I take my greyhound out to beaches and parks often, but I rarely see other greyhounds in the parks and on the beaches. Let's help our pets make new …
