Every betting industry should meet the same end, for the sake of humanity!
Now do horses.
Replace with greyhound bus racing.
Greyhounds will race each other even when no humans are telling them to. How are you going to stop them from doing so every time they meet in a park?
Only a few days left to raw dog it!
Banning this seems a bit much. May as well do horse racing too
Well, might be banned in NZ but you can still bet online on greyhound races in FL if you need your fix.
great, next: Horses
At least we got a great Sunny episode out of it
It’s harmful to the dogs, who end up with serious injuries and sometimes die on the track. It’s a treatment of animals from a different era, and the younger generation is rightfully questioning if it’s the proper way to treat these dogs. It’s all for gambling too… like that’s the purpose of it, no higher calling, gambling.
Replace it with bike races on a velodrome
like in Japan. At least the humans can consent to the risks.
Replace with Robot racing. Now that would actually be fun to see who can make the best robotic dogs to race. Rules state they have to have 4 legs to keep it honest.
I kinda wish they had amateur racing where dog in the dog park could just get lined up to race.
Going to bet on the overactive spaniel, the highly distractible beagle or the Weimaraner with separation anxiety?
Great news, if only Australia would completely ban it. I have a rescue and she is a lovely Grey, but also dysfunctional due to her early years racing.
These races basically only existed because other forms of entertainment hadn’t been invented yet.
Once TV was invented the sport of making dogs run in a circle was on borrowed time.
Wiener dog races are about to take off!!
As an owner of a retired racing greyhound, I can say it was heavily regulated for the last states doing it within the past 20 years or so. Almost every racetrack had rehoming organizations that they works closely with to ensure good lives after racing. Racers eventually found it the dogs raced better when treated well versus being abused. Im sad its coming to an end because this dog breed will eventually die out without racing.
I had a racetrack reject greyhound growing up. He was as sweet and loving as he was dumber than a bag full of hammers. Boy was so fast he nearly tore his own leg off running past a tree branch too fast. I love the dog, but the system that selectively bred him is nightmarish.
I haven’t heard anything about this before but it’s so clear that the dog-racers are in the wrong. Like the way the article reads is like they’re victims of some accusations while conveniently never mentioning what the accusations could be. Dog shows and horse racing aren’t being banned so what’s the missing missing?
Thank god. My uncle and aunt rescued two racing greyhounds. One was a girl and one was a boy.
The boy was so terrified of anyone male presenting that he would literally run away and hide. It was awful. Wonderful to see them run in a park but terrible imagining the abuse he probably faced.
Charlie just wanted to raw dog and places a few bets !
I’m glad the racing industry is coming to an end. But I do hope this doesn’t mean the end of the greyhound as a breed.
We’ve had two Italian Greyhounds (basically miniature greyhounds) and they’ve been wonderful dogs. Everything I’ve read and seen about the full size dogs indicates they are wonderful puppers as well.
Is there anybody that actually partakes in this sport besides degenerate gamblers?
Sadly the downstream effect is there will be fewer greyhounds in the world. That’s the tradeoff
