Protect greyhounds
July 2009
Thanks to everyone who has responded to the government's public consultation on the welfare of racing greyhounds. The deadline for responses has now closed.
We wanted to let you know that thousands of RSPCA supporters sent an email off to the government in response to the public consultation in just under two weeks. This is a great achievement! We really appreciate you taking action on this important issue.
We want to see effective regulations brought in to cover the welfare of all racing greyhounds from cradle to grave, not just whilst they're at the racetrack. All aspects of welfare within the greyhound industry, from breeding to kennelling, racing, transportation, management and retirement need to be comprehensively improved.
We hope a mass response to the government consultation influences the range of welfare issues that are addressed within the regulations. We shall keep your informed of the outcome of this consultation.
Thanks again for your support on this campaign.
