  • Banning simulcasting of dog racing - Nearly 9,000 racing greyhounds are destroyed every year when they get too old and too slow to be profitable.   In the House Democrats’ recent episode of "i on PA", meet two lucky retired dogs from Florida who have found a good home and see how the state is looking to strengthen its dog-racing ban to better protect the friendly animals.

  • The August 2009 issue of Whirl Magazine features an exclusive interview with and photographs of Mrs. Howard Stern, Pittsburgh’s own Beth Ostrosky Stern.  August 12th the magazine and Steel City Greyhounds were featured on KDKA.  To watch the video, go to the KDKA Video Library, and type Steel City Greyhounds in search.

    The model and spokesperson for the North Shore Animal Rescue League poses in high fashion from Halston and Marchesa with rescued dogs from Pittsburgh's own Steel City Greyhounds. “My request is for people to never buy from a pet store and to visit their local shelter. If people want to buy a purebred, they should know that 25 percent of the animals at shelters are purebred,” Stern told WHIRL.
