Isabel Lucas, a brindle greyhound with a broken leg, rests in a cage at Hemopet Garden Grove, part of a program saving racing dogs from the industry. The center screens dogs for adoption and uses them to draw blood, with hundreds of milliliters collected during their tenure before hopeful placements.
