I am constantly hearing stories of Greyhound cruelty in the UK from racing, I can't believe you don't too Am happy to debate it with you if you can give me an examples of cruelty that have being enacted by the Greyhound industry that could lead to a proscuition. |

Not by the Greyhound industry itself (although this is the route cause), indevidul cases of thousands of dogs each year

I race, I am a breeder / kennel operator, I own one of the top greyhounds in the country right now, he was recently voted greyhound of the year at one of the toughest tracks in the country, also one of the safest, Southland. his name is Dave the Dog and he is running in a Stakes race "the Innaugural" at Southland tomorrow evening the 2nd. After that race we will be taking him off and moving him to Derby Lane to run in the Million dollar Race there.

I know the adoption kennel director at Southland. She is a very concientous person and a hard worker. I think very highly of her.

Southland is the absolute bomb to run at, track management, adoption, track maintenenace, they are all over it there. Every kennel running at Southland donates 50% of the earnings of one of its greyhounds to a local charity. I'd love to see more follow in Southalnds footsteps.
