The bill that is being proposed is about the industry of Greyhound Racing. The main aspects of this bill are to bring justice to those who use live baiting, address the welfare issues surrounding this industry and to ban greyhound racing in all states of Australia. Greyhound racing is a cruel and degrading industry and putting a permanent ban on such a thing will benefit the society of Australia greatly. Every year, around 20,000 greyhounds are bred in the hope that one of them will become the fastest
In the greyhound racing industry, law reforms have not been entirely effective in delivering just outcomes. In 2015, ABC’s Four Corners broadcasted “Making a Killing”, exposing “the New South Wales greyhound racing industry for widespread systemic mistreatment of animals; unnecessary slaughtering; deliberate misreporting; and a culture that lost the community’s trust” as the Honour Niall Blair stated. In response, a Special Commission of Inquiry into Greyhound Racing investigated the treatment of
dogs to participate in. It is so dangerous to a dog that it can even cause death because they are not taken care of right. The greyhound racing industry will treat dogs like machines. The few minutes on the track is the only freedom they have for a long time. They spend countless hours in side of a cramped up cages or kennels. There are countless numbers of greyhounds that die each year some even before they ever see the track. The dogs start racing at 18 months of age and many don’t reach the retirement

latest years, greyhound racing has gained negative media attention, whereas in 2015 the abc four corners revealed that several owners and trainers were using live baits as a training form for the dog to gain a competitive advantage (Hanna, & Clark, 2015). Another issue concerning the sustainability of the industry is the mass greyhound killings because they were considered too slow (Hanrahan, 2016). Due to all the issues concerning the industry, New South Wales were set to ban Greyhound racing in 2016
Greyhound racing has been a well-known pari-mutuel gambling sport since the early 1900s. But it has taken a nasty turn. Many greyhounds that are used for racing are being treated like money-making machines. Trainers and owners get so bent on winning that they will do illegal and cruel things to their dogs. Some will even drug their dogs with cocaine or anabolic steroids to improve their running capability and speed. Another illegal method of training that some might use is called baiting or blooding
The movie Greyhound tells the story of a United States destroyer crossing the Atlantic Ocean during the Battle of the Atlantic. The Allied and Axis powers fought over the Atlantic Ocean during the Battle of the Atlantic. The victory of the battle gave the Allies the upper hand (Hughes & Milner, 2024).

For my community service time I worked with the Greyhound Adoption Center up in El Cajon, Ca. The adoption center has been open since 1984 and has rescued thousands of dogs since it has been opened. Just this year alone the Greyhound Adoption Center has recused 149 greyhounds, 30 of which had leg injuries. The center has the ability to house up to 50 dogs and sometimes 20 more with experienced foster homes. The Greyhound Adoption Center also has a very unique organizing their kennels. Unlike most

vividly memorable than any material gift or elaborate celebration. Furthermore, I have had the opportunity to participate in many projects with Queen City Greyhounds related to rescuing greyhounds from the vicious cycle of dog racing. Many states have previously outlawed this practice, but in many southern states, major cities host greyhound racing as a commodity. Consequently, the dogs are viewed as nothing more than a means through which to make profit; if a dog is no longer able to race well

marriage is described by an elaborate connection of symbolic relations. The relationships of the shutter's sealing bang, Emma's long dress that keeps her from happiness, the plaster priest that conveys the actions of the couple, the restless greyhound, and Emma burning her wedding bouquet are all images of eternal doom to the couple's marriage.

Animal Abuse Animal abuse happens everyday all over the world. Have you wondered what animal abuse is?. Animal abuse is when someone hurts an animal or does not care for an animal responsibly, like not giving a dog or cat food and water. It is against the law to be cruel to or harm animals, even your own pets. Most cases are never reported, and most animal suffering goes unrecognized and unabated.

Freedom is the ability to make contact with other races, speak and act regardless of skin color, and most of all, sit where you want on public transportation without being penalized. Before 1961, public transportation was segregated immensely among the races. Colored people, regardless of sex, were looked down upon for their skin and couldn’t mix with the whites. Instead, whites were treated as royalty. Colored people had to give up their seats for the “higher” race, stand up when there were no seats
Throughout history portraits of dogs were showing up. People were beginning to see how dogs affected everyday living by showing it in their artwork. I love dogs which is why I chose to do a paper on them. Dogs are loyal, friendly, and good companions when you need them. They are furry friends you can trudge through the snow with you when your friends are sick. They are hamburger snatchers that leave you the bun while they walk off with the meat. They can be your alarm system letting you know someone’s
I could write a story about how I was profiled when I arrived at the Oakland greyhound station. How when my boyfriend and I walked past the security guard he hesitated and then said, “You two are fine.” Later I would find out that the routine not only consists of checking luggage for harmful weapons and substances, but of frisking passengers, arms spanned, legs apart. Or instead I could write about how my bus going to Reno was delayed at the top of Donnar pass. How all thirty-five of us spent five
