Greyhound racing in the United States
Greyhound racing in the United States is a sport and parimutuel gambling activity. The industry is regulated by state law and greyhound care is regulated by the American Greyhound Council (AGC) and the National Greyhound Association. Beginning in roughly 1990, and continuing over the next three decades, the vast majority of greyhound tracks have closed due to declining betting revenue, encroachment by Native American gaming and commercial casino gambling into states with greyhound racing, the legalization of sports betting and concerns over the welfare of racing greyhounds. Although roughly one-half of US states offer online advance-deposit wagering as well as off-track betting and race and sports book betting, as of 2026, only two tracks currently conduct actual live racing onsite, both in West Virginia.
