RSPCA report on the vote by 22nd July.
Thank you so much for responding to the government consultation on the welfare of racing greyhounds.
We wanted to let you know that the government received over 10,000 responses to the consultation from RSPCA supporters 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 the mass response to the government consultation influences the range of welfare issues that are addressed within the regulations. We shall keep you informed of the outcome of this consultation.
Thanks again for your support on this campaign.
