Future of greyhounds in China
We write as a concerned group of leading animal welfare organisations with extensive experience of greyhound welfare, regarding the Irish Greyhound Board’s suggested interest in sending Irish greyhounds to the People’s Republic of China to establish a greyhound industry. It is clear that this venture is being pursued with no consideration for the welfare of greyhounds. The future of Irish greyhounds in China would at best be short lived and at worst dire and unthinkable.
