For the greyhounds at least, it isn=B4t as simple as "first past the
post". No matter how hard they try, how fast they run, ultimately they
will be the losers.
So who are the winners in this s****t?
The Winners!
=B7 the greyhound industry as a whole, which generates enormous annual
profits.
=B7 The owners of the best registered dogs, who profit from prizes
=B7 The registered dog owners who can sell the best dogs on to the
independent sector, once they have no further use for them.
The Losers!
=B7 the puppies killed because they won=B4t make the grade as a racer.
=B7 The thousands and thousands of greyhounds racing in the independent
sector whose welfare is not regulated.
=B7 The dogs kept in appalling, dirty, cramped conditions.
=B7 The injured greyhounds, many of whom go untreated.
=B7 The dogs abandoned or killed when they can=B4t run fast enough to win
a race.
How can you make a difference to the dogs, and help the greyhounds
