Animal welfare groups call for end to greyhound racing in Scotland

A coalition of nine animal welfare groups have issued a joint call to phase out greyhound racing in Scotland.

Operating under the “Unbound The Greyhound” banner, the campaign is urging Scotland’s government to take action and end dog racing.

Scotland’s parliament has agreed to conduct an inquiry on the issue after Scotland Against Greyhound Racing (Sage), one of the groups backing the campaign, lodged a petition.

OneKind, Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home, League Against Cruel Sports, Grey2K USA Worldwide, Animal Concern, Hope Rescue, All-party Parliamentary Dog Advisory Welfare Group and Say No to Greyhound Racing in Scotland are also supporting the campaign.

“Scotland’s greyhound racing industry is on its last legs with just one, unlicensed, track remaining in Scotland,” the campaign said. “Polling also reveals that the majority of Scots want to see the Scottish government put an end to this cruel industry, that involves the deaths and injuries of dogs, amputations and doping.”
