Report tabled in NSW parliament contains allegations of animal abuse, under-reporting of deaths and failures in rehoming

An anti-racing rally in 2018. A new report into NSW greyhound racing is alleging widespread animal abuse and persistent reporting failures.An anti-racing rally in 2018. A new report into NSW greyhound racing is alleging widespread animal abuse and persistent reporting failures.

Brittan claimed this boosted injury rates because it encouraged some trainers to race greyhounds as often as possible, even when they had no chance of winning. Two-thirds of greyhounds entering GRNSW’s rehoming program were so psychologically damaged after retiring from racing that they required significant medication or time in rehabilitation, Brittan claimed.After retiring, dogs who were supposedly being rehomed as pets were in fact left “trapped in the industry” because there were too many dogs to move on, the report said.

“The greyhound goes to the vet, gets de-sexed, is picked up by its owner and taken back to its home, where it waits for a rehoming that will likely never come,” Brittan wrote. Reported deaths were commonly attributed to snake bites or to “idiopathic” or unclear causes but were not investigated, creating “a loophole that is open to being abused as a convenient method of de-stocking unwanted dogs from a property”.
