Irish greyhound awards Protest

category national | animal rights | press release author Wednesday March 19, 2008 12:06author by T. Peters - greyhound Action Irelandauthor address Greyhound Action Ireland. PO BOX 4734. Dublin1. Report this post to the editors

Important demonstration/greyhounds killed due to greyhound Industry number tens of thousands-U bet they die.

On Easter Sunday, March 23rd, the Irish Greyhound Board (IGB) will, once again, be holding their annual awards ceremony at the Killashee House Hotel in Naas, 24 miles from Dublin.

This is a yearly booze-up, dance and banquet, where the IGB hand out trophies to their various pals within the greyhound racing industry.

We’re not going to let them get away with their wining, dining and mutual back-slapping without vociferously bringing home to them exactly what we think about their disgusting so-called "sport" that makes them all a nice living from the ruthless persecution of innocent creatures.

Directions to the hotel and a map can be found at www.killasheehouse.com/map.html

See www.greyhoundaction.org.uk/eireDemo.htm for a report of the demonstration.

Greyhound Action estimates that the Irish dog racing industry is responsible for the deaths of over 10,000 greyhounds every year. In addition, thousands of greyhounds, bred in Ireland for racing on British tracks, are put to death, often as young pups, after being considered not good enough to send to Britain (for more information, see www.greyhoundaction.org.uk/igreyhound.html)

If you possibly can, please try to attend this important demonstration, which will begin at 5.30pm outside the hotel’s main entrance. Anti greyhound racing
