I am not a fan of any form of sports that involve animals.
I don't like dog racing, horse racing, fox hunting etc etc.
I don't like the idea of people making bets / money of the animals involved it is as bad as byb to me.
As for fox hunting, ok they may be a need to control numbers, but i am against the methods used.
No dog should be outcasted because they are not making the owner a bit of cash on the races, i would like to put them on a track!

Fully agree with your opinions, they are the same as mine, thats why I posted the links. Its about time someone exposed this so called sport for what it is.

What was so horrific was that most of them were in a very bad condition and with quite serious ailments.
Poor things.

There was no way of knowing how long the dogs had been "straying" though, the condition of them may of come through being loose. Cant see what the list hopes to achieve, but if people think it will help, go for it.

Do you really think this amount of dogs escaped and elluded the owners to be found as strays months later, with none of the owners trying to find them or caring where they went.

Im sure all the breeders of these dogs were just clamering to get them back as well of course.

Well I suppose if theres nothing wrong with people dumping these dogs when they are no longer useful then people wont see what the list is hoping to achieve.
