| Greyhound Dumped With Ears Cut Off March 11, 2009 by Freelance Writers
Yet more distressing news of a mutilated greyhound found on February 14th which had been dumped on wasteland near the village of Iron Acton. Iron Acton, on the outskirts of Bristol, is situated less than 30 miles from Swindon dog track – a licensed stadium. Not only had this poor greyhound’s ears been hacked off – to prevent the tracing of the last registered owner – the greyhound was heavily pregnant with six pups. The RSPCA are hoping someone will recognise the dog, who is black with white markings under her chin and a white blaze between her forelegs, as well as two white spots on her throat. RSPCA inspector John Atkinson said: This is a very distressing incident for all involved and we are investigating every possible avenue. If any member of the public saw people dumping the dog, or knows of a dog answering this description, I would urge them to contact the RSPCA at once. We would ask all supporters to highlight not only this disgusting crime but also the exploitation of racing of greyhounds by writing to the Bristol Evening Post

| thats the thing shelley they have no love for them as far as the racing kennels are concerned they are bred to make money!!!! the day they stop pulling in the money they are not worth being fed or kenneled so are dumped, killed, slaughtered, take your fancy. if they have young stock in but they dont make the grade as racers nine times out of ten they are butchered too, those that have raced their legs off and have proven to be good runners might be fortunate to go into the breeding program but then they are treated like the puppy mills see how many times they can produce litters before they are useless and have to go to the knackers yard too its a cruel cruel world!!!!!!!! |
