Ladbrokes’ Monmore dog track does it again by showing a total disregard for the welfare of greyhounds. Please don’t support this exploitative gambling industry! www.greytexploitations.com
My greyhound loves the snow, had plenty of fun destroying the snowman we built, in fact he wanted to stay out. Those greyhounds were out in the cold for only about 3 minutes! Mine was outside for at least 30 min having a whale of a time.
Yeah they really looked like they were forced to run in the snow. Most greyhounds love snow and will run in it all day if given the chance. They were very happy and excited to run. You can not force a greyhound to race. They either have the prey drive to chase or they don't. Greyhounds love to race. Nothing cruel about that. This lying about greyhounds racing being cruel has to stop. There was nothing wrong with this race.
Greyhounds enjoy racing, my ex-racer loves running (they're sighthounds). I even managed to contact his kennel hand and he sent me some photos from his racing days and he was loving it. Why not go after Flyball? or Dog agility. Just let Greyhounds do what they do best!
I wonder if any Labrador owners were out in the Monmore snow that afternoon throwing sticks for their pets……..or maybe launching balls for that Collie dog surely not? Do YOU keep your dog locked up indoors when it’s snowing? Of course you don’t so why should we?
What a joke. I have 6 hounds that we hunt coyotes with. They love it. They see a coyote their eyes glass over and dont come back till the chase and the kill. Then while they cool down the eyes come back to normal and ready for the next one. Go in the house they are just big lap dogs.
