I am writing to share an anecdote with you about my greyhound Pippi. We rescued her from the Victorian racing industry last year.

The racing industry insists that greyhounds are treated like elite athletes. We examine this through the lens of a greyhound’s reality.

State governments spend millions of taxpayer dollars on grants and subsidies to prop up the dog racing industry, and this goes against the wishes of their constituents, so they are clearly out of step with the people they are supposed to represent.

More than 300 attendees and 240 speakers from 28 different organisations gathered together on February 24-25 at the iconic Town Hall in Melbourne for the long awaited Animal Rights Forum 2024.

If the greyhound racing industry is serious about reducing injuries and deaths, it should immediately address all the modifiable risk factors.
