I HATE BLOOD SPORTS! Here in the united kingdom we also have the same problem. I just hate the whole fact that these greyhound dogs are bred for racing and when they are no longer good for racing they just get chucked out on the streets. They are hard to rehome, some people dont like them because theythink they look 'odd' (who has the right to label!) and they'd rarther go for a cute fluffy dog. Greyhounds are beautiful and deserve to be treated kindly, lovinglyjust like any other animal. And as for using rabbits for them to chase..... we all know its wrong! Its not the greyhounds fault (not that any of you are blaming them) its the people who run these greyhound events........ give a dog a rabbit, cat, mouse, hamster etc to chase and they will, its in their nature.
I am hoping to start a sucessfull career in England working with animals, first in a cattery or kennels and work my way up to hopefully be an animal protection officer.
ANYONE WHO TREATS ANIMALS WITH SUCH DISRESPECT, CARELESSNESS, JUST PURE VILE ACTS/ACTIONS ARNT WORTHY OF KEEPING ANIMALS OR BEEN ANYWHERE NEAR ANIMALS!
Anyway thats my bit said.
Hope you are all ok by the way.
