On November 22, GREY2K USA learned that Skechers had filmed a commercial at Tucson Greyhound Park featuring greyhound dogs in running jackets pitted against a small dog wearing Skechers sneakers.

We wrote to the company and asked you to join us  in asking for this misguided promotion to be cancelled. Thankfully, thousands of greyhound advocates around the world signed our petition and also sent direct e-mails to company officials.

However, Skechers refused to listen to these humane concerns and debuted the ad on Super Bowl Sunday.  We are not waiting to find out if this dog racing promotion will continue to air.

Until we receive word that their dog racing ad will no longer air...

PLEASE JOIN US IN BOYCOTTING SKECHERS  

Sign our updated petition letting Skechers know you will be boycotting their products based on their decision to go forward with the commercial.

You may also write to them directly as follows:

• Skechers President Michael Greenburg at michaelg@skechers.com
• Skechers Vice President of Media Gary Martin at gpmedia@aol.com

Let your voice be heard loudly for the greyhounds!
