Fireworks show right next door to Race track - Ban Greyhound Racing

Coral  - the barbaric owners who allowed greyhounds to be held in kennels right next door to Firework displays on Saturday - Hove racetrack did exactly the same! 



Barbaric Fireworks at Belle Vue Racetrack @susie Slueth sleaker
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?

Ban Greyhound Racing in the UK @susie sleuth Sleaker
It is .................




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'

There are 21 active (GBGB) registered stadiums in the UK: 20 are in England and one in Scotland. There are none  in Wales (just one independent one)

Greyhound Racing 1000's die every year - Change this !

18,000 Racing Greyhounds die? How can there ever be an 'acceptable' amount of deaths! 


1000's Greyhounds die every year @Susie Sleuth Sleaker

Witnesses reported seeing the man pick up the dog and throw it into the freezing water in Hartlepool, County Durham, on 2 November.



Ministers are considering tightening regulations on greyhound welfare as campaigners claim tens of thousands die needlessly and “disappear” each year.
The industry should be more open about numbers of deaths and injuries, officials at the Department for Food, Environment and Rural Affairs (Defra) said as MPs prepare to examine welfare guidelines this week.
Campaign group Greyt Exploitations says it has found that at least 40,000 greyhounds have been injured in the past 10 years on British tracks, and 18,000 have died.

'Let's hope ministers are going to do more than 'consider' this has been going on for decades if they do nothing or an inadequate token gesture then it will continue to show the government is corrupt. We are a nation of animal lovers and our politics should reflect the view of the people'

A whistle-stop tour sadly .. all work .. no time to enjoy this very magical country.. meeting up with a contact of a contact. Hoping the information is going to be good, if not I shall be drinking too much!


Someone asked me the other day. Who are you?  I was very tempted to say 'I can be whoever you want me to be' but it really was not the right moment!! and those days are far and few between now!
