Greyhound Racing in Modern Britain? (part one)

Greyhound Racing in Modern Britain?
Part one: Wall of Shame

An interview with Debra Rothery of Tia Greyhound Rescue and a look at some of the dogs that have arrived at Tia's doors.

This is a short film from a series which explores the industry of dog
racing in Great Britain.

We travel across the country and ask whether the cruel practice of commercial greyhound racing has a place in our culture.

We took two beautiful dogs from Tia, Lassie ( we've renamed her Colin) and Roger. We got them two years ago today. They've brought so much love into our lives and we hope that they will live long and happy lives, content that they are loved and cared for

@jun7per There is no such thing as an evil industry, only evil people within it.

OMG! I live in norway and I and own a greyhound. She is a showdog and I paid about 1200 pounds for my greyhound. If anybody did that to my dog I`d be outraged and have them prosecuted. I can't believe this kind of dog racing is going on in other countries.

all the greyhounds ive ever met are better than half the people i know!!!

if you hurt a greyhound you should suffer same consequence as if the dog was a human (or angel) b/c they are so sweet.
