Care call over retired greyhounds
Permalink Closed

Best-selling author Jilly Cooper is joining a high-profile call for a better quality of life for retired racing dogs.

Ms Cooper and actress Annette Crosbie will be at Downing Street on Thursday to urge the government to set basic welfare standards for greyhounds.

The League Against Cruel Sports says thousands of retired dogs are needlessly killed each year.

GOOD GOOD GOOD, more high profile names needed but i think if all greyhound rescue (large and small) got together and started a petition to set some kind of care law it may help, i hope the government take notice, these dogs deserve better
