greyhound track
Dog racing venue
A greyhound track is a racing venue where greyhounds chase a mechanical lure around an oval course, typically while spectators bet on outcomes.
The sport peaked in the mid-20th century and has since declined amid animal welfare concerns: The old greyhound track closed down years ago.
