HORROR AS 58 DOGS ARE RETURNED TO THE RACING INDUSTRY
Caged Nationwide has written to Duncan Gibson, 'Manager of Welfare and Integrity Services for the Greyhound Board of Great Britain' to ask if all dogs raced and kennelled by the trainer, could be sent to rescue following their neglect and suffering, but we did not receive a reply.
Since then, we were advised that 58 dogs were removed by the GBGB and sent back to racing industry trainers and owners, and another 3 dogs were allowed to stay with the trainer.
The 58 dogs of which we were advised were living in horrific conditions at Field House Farm, Dalton Piercy, Hartlepool, Cleveland, in a GBGB inspected and licensed kennel, did not go to rescue.
We believe these owners were neglectful and should have at least made the welfare of these dogs a priority by sending them to rescue.
This licensed trainer was responsible for 80 plus greyhounds
