Please read my reply to Borderdawn which clarifies she wrongly assumed I refered to the Animal Establishments Boarding Act.

Please can you provide good factual evidence to substantiate your claim regarding other articles?

No I am not saying that - I used to go to Walthamstow regularly when I lived in London.

What I am saying is, I have no desire to go now.

Someone from the industry initially alerted me.
Obviously, I was concerned for the dogs but was later reassured they were ok.

I have said in previous posts that I don't believe all involved in greyhound racing to be cruel.

The kennelhand had the list of the 12 dogs she was going to have destroyed.

Only 9 of those dogs made it to Hersham Hounds - we have no idea what happened to the other 3.

Not having a pop at greyhound rescue at all - I'm heavily involved in it myself.

We shall have to agree to disagree on the 'Norah' issue then.

someone was looking for a 'KENNEL HAND JOB'

Well I thought it was funny........

You all go under these "pseudonyms" yet seem fascinated to the real names of people who own or who support Greyhound racing.

How is she doing Navajo? Running well?
Borderdawn knows full well who I am and I'll make no secret of it, pm me if you want my full name and email address.

Yes, thank you Dawn, she was 3rd last time out, second race and she's only a pup so we're pleased as punch, the big lad is still not quite sure of the inside hare and is running wide, basically jollying around the outside looking for the hare!! He'll get it soon enough

I have to say, the group of gents and ladies that I know down at my local flapping track are the most genuine people I have met! And they all see their dogs as pets aswell as racing dogs.
