Our campaign launches with a two-week advertising campaign, Hounds of the Underground. Bright and colourful graphics will be splashed across London Bridge, Victoria, Waterloo, King’s Cross St Pancreas and Tottenham Court Road tube stations, telling the stories of survivors from the racing industry. These ads will be up until the 24th August, so if you see one on your travels, make sure to tag us and use the hashtags #HoundsOfTheUnderground #EndGreyhoundRacing
The ads will be asking people to sign our government petition to end greyhound racing. You can also get in touch with your MP and ask them to sign this EDM!
Stories of survivors from the racing industry will be splashed across major London Underground stations for two weeks in August
Week of action
Our week of action, kicking off on 18th August, will see local activists across the country take to their local dog tracks and town centres to raise awareness of the suffering endured by racing greyhounds. If you’d like to get involved a demo taking place near you, then please get in touch with us here.
Did you know that dogs in the racing industry disappear from records each year, or that they are at risk of being doped with harmful substances such as cocaine, or that it is an industry requirement for every licensed race track to have a freezer to store the bodies of dead dogs?
If you are shocked by any of these facts, then help join the growing movement for these amazing dogs.
You can find out more about why greyhound racing is so cruel here and help us end greyhound racing for good!
