Buller Rep Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Hesi, is that factually correct in that in May four Greyhounds died racing in NZ and that 10 suffered broken bones. If you don’t know the answer, can you please contact the official authorities and ask them to either confirm or deny. Those are two pretty bad statistic.

I know two died in the same race in May and as of Mid May nine in total had died in the 2023-2024 season so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryB Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 600 Urban dogs are euthanised each month in Auckland alone, hundreds of which are abused & mistreated. Let’s hear these organisations talk about & focus on this, instead of worrying about the 1% of Greys that have issues, most are well cared for. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curious Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 In the year to June 2023, 2615 dogs were euthanised, 151 because shelters were full and the remainder because of other reasons including temperament, health issues or the dog being involved in an attack.

And SPCA have offered to help rehome greyhounds if ban is put in place!!!!! Can't even keep up rehoming their own shelters. IMO changes have been made and definitely in the rehoming space as even now retired dogs are being sent to USA to loving home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
