Slow Dogs Killed for Research

A Times article (here) by Daniel Foggo has exposed the practise by some in the greyhound racing industry of selling fit and healthy greyhounds that are either to slow or won't chase to be killed for research.
A quote from the Welfare page of one of the greyhound kennels involved - Zig Zag Kennels - states "At Zig Zag Kennels we make the welfare of all our stock our highest priority." I guess once they've been sold for research they don't count as stock any more.
Hopefully the times article is another nail in the coffin for the way the greyhound racing industry goes about it's business.
