Dogs crying and showing signs of distress |
Yet again there is evidence of the greed and cruelty of this 'bloodsport' because to me - that is what it is.. when will it end?

If you would like to support the movement to ban Greyhound racing then this group is worth joining and see if you can help Shutdown Belle Vue Greyhound Race track Manchester plus see previous blogs with more information and links to petitions
These are the fireworks going off now next to Belle Vue as the greyhounds are waiting in the holding kennels. You can hear the dogs crying out in fear. Shame on the track management for not cancelling tonight’s racing. Video
'At tonight's demo at Hove dog track the fireworks were deafening and Coral rubbed their hands with glee at the thought of more money from animal suffering. They tried to pretend they care by issuing a statement saying the racing would stop for half an hour but of course the fireworks were relentless for much longer. In the meantime the dogs were in the track kennels, no doubt out of their minds with fear. We had lots of passing support and an added inspiration when The League hired a trailer video to drive up and down outside the track calling for a ban on greyhound racing. We used megaphones because of course suddenly the objection was dropped and the children we were meant to be disturbing were at the fireworks display. Funny how Coral, the police and pro racers twist everything to suit themselves. Tonight we are angry for all the animals in distress and terror thanks to human selfishness. Ban fireworks, ban greyhound racing, Close Hove Dog Track'
