A damning article on greyhound welfare from the former Chief Vet of Greyhound Racing New South Wales. “Is ending the suffering of greyhounds more important than protecting the gambling industry” A pertinent question for the UK govt following the bans in 🏴 & 🏴 #CutTheChase
It’s #NationalPuppyDay 🐾 Even puppies can end up in rescue. Recently we helped our adorable Halloween Pups litter find their forever homes & they won't be the last. Vet checks & vaccinations soon add up — please donate to give a puppy the gift of life ❤️ https://t.co/N7DrdF1MqO

Horror show! Sixteen dogs killed at one Irish dog track in 2025.
“How many more dogs have to suffer and die before the Irish Government stops the funding that is propping up greyhound racing? Since 2001, Greyhound Racing Ireland has received €386,806,146 in grants, including €19 million for 2024, €19.82 million for 2025 and €19.82 million for 2026. This is unacceptable and must be stopped.”

On the 23rd March 2023, we received a call for help from Shared Regulatory Services (SRS) to rescue almost 40 dogs being kept in appalling conditions, with the property being used as an illegal puppy farm. Read more here: https://t.co/f5ze2avzb2
Recently rehomed 10-month old Charlie, visiting us to register & check her chip. Please always consider rescue when choosing your 4-legged friend & if you're not in a position to adopt, then maybe donate to local shelter, volunteer, or share their posts on socials. #AnimalWelfare

When dogs are abducted, collars, tags, and trackers are removed. Their microchip remains the best chance to be reunited.
Abducted dogs often get sold on to new families, unaware of the crime. Most will register their new dog at a vet practice. Yet few will have their microchip scanned and checked as part of this process. That is optional. The best chance of being reunited is lost.
With 23 government-compliant databases, many authorities claim that cross-checking takes too long and is seen as an 'administrative burden’. This is part of the reason only 20% of abducted dogs get reunited.
We don’t think reuniting families should be seen as a burden. Nor should it be optional. We want to speed up the process, increase scanning and checking rates, and increase the chances of more abducted dogs being reunited with families.
A central microchip portal would do this. @DefraGovUK promised this in 2024, but nothing has changed.
Please sign and share to help fix the fragmented pet microchipping system, and get more abducted dogs home.
