Help all racing greyhounds and sign the petition today!

The RSPCA is calling for a better life for all racing greyhounds. Each year at least 10,000 greyhounds are retired from racing. The fate of many greyhounds is unknown and huge numbers ‘disappear’. The greyhound racing industry must reveal the true extent of the problem.

Racing greyhounds may face a number of welfare problems during their lives including:

 

Over breeding of greyhounds leading to thousands of unwanted dogs Injury caused by inappropriate track surfaces and design Being abandoned and killed when they don’t make the grade because they are unsuitable for racing

 

Sign the petition now! Ask the Government to introduce regulation to protect the welfare of all racing greyhounds throughout their lives
