Thanks to the Inquiry, we now know that up to 94% of the mass puppy farmed racing greyhounds are dead by 42 months.
It’s not enough to just ban Australian dogs being exported to their ultimate death overseas. The dog racing industry is reliant on over breeding it’s ‘product’ for its gambling profit and needs to be eradicated for this inherent cruelty.
Thank you Jill Hall MP and NBN for taking a positive and pro-active interest in the issues and values that are important to not only the Central Coast community, but the Australian community at large.
Minister for cruelty, Barnaby Joyce, allows this vile export to China despite knowing their fate is doomed.
Australian dogs get exported to death in NZ too. Only 26% (of 250-300 dogs per year) that arrive here from Australian find adoptive homes.
Added to that its Australian punters keeping this pointless cruel industry going in NZ.
Come on Australia! you’re better than this!
Australian greyhounds cannot be exported to China as racing greyhounds – they have to be deregistered first and exported as a pet. The only authority that can close this loophole is the Federal Government.
