Picture: Greyhound Action

Thousands of racing greyhounds are killed in the UK every year when they pass their racing peak at only a few years old. They are lovely natured dogs, easy to care for, and clean around the house being short-haired. A greyhound rehoming centre near you will make sure a dog placed with you suits your household and lifestyle.

The Greyhound Rescue website is run by a collection of unpaid individuals trying to save Greyhounds by donating a free Internet presence to ANY non-profit making organisation or charity for Greyhound rescue in the UK. They list local groups and also give lots of advice on caring for your dog.

If you'd like to get more involved in reducing the barbaric treatment of racing greyhounds and the numbers killed every year, then take a look at Greyhound Action.
