About the greyhounds:
Today I discovered that at the end of every racing season, the owner has to get rid of the oldest dogs, wich are the 3 to 4 year old ones. They have been racing from since they were 18 months.
It's a sadistic tradition that all these dogs are hanged in a tree, BUT, the ones that raced well enough, will be hanged high, so they die in a few horrible minutes. But the ones who didn't race well, will be hanged low enough so their back pows' toes still reach the ground. They call it "piano playing". Those dogs have a battle with death for about 6 hours. "They don't deserve a quick death" according to them.
Please, keep signing the petition, as Macbeth quoted so right: The cruelty will only stop when the races are banned.

That my Dear Gal is just plain barbaric (no insult to any Barbarians and/or descendants)
And yes no matter how that should be stopped.
