Greyhound Awards minister for Sport met by photos of Dead Greyhounds in Kildare

Yesterday the Minister for Sport Martin Cullen (whose Department grants millions of Euro to the Greyhound and Horse racing fund annually ) was stopped and confrunted by lifesize photos of dead and mutilated greyhounds at Kilashee House Hotel Naas.

He was taken completely unawares as protestors waited for his entrance into the Hotel lobby. As Gardai waited at the Hotel main entrance we sat quietly and waited till he was in the hotel Lobby to make sure he knew the demise of past their peak racing dogs. He made no comment but looked shocked as he was quickly ushered away by hotel staff . we were then told to get out of the Hotel.
Our point made (despite not getting him in the photo) we intend to continue our fight to END GREYHOUND SUBSIDIES AND GRANTS.

Amazingly the Greyhound Industry are more low key this year as last years event was a black tie affair. Reflecting the decline in the Industry no national media appear to cover the event.
Without taxpayers millions this industry will fold!

U BET -THEY DIE

Greyhounds tend to have a sweet nature, & retired ones make good pets - just don't leave any food unguarded!

The mini-budget will be interesting.... with the times that are in it I wonder if they will continue to fund racing whilst cutting benefits for the most needy people in society and hacking away at our education and health systems?

It is very sad to see those lovely pets discarded like they had no intelligence. Every home should have one. They only need food and a warm place to sleep in.

What has happened to the dogs in the pictures? I can't even tell for sure if what it looks like is true. Is that blood around the second dogs neck? And if it is what it looks like- that the dogs have suffered brutal mistreatment, then why has this happened? How could people be so cruel? And for what 'benefit'? I knew that greyhound racing was a cruel industry but I'm shocked and do not understand the photos. More info would be greatly appreciated.
