Friends of mine that live near town in a suburbia situation own a maltese, they are breeders of ped. dogs with papers; well, to get to the point one dog managed to dig its way under the fence and the inevitable took place. The culprit was nowhere to be seen so to this day they don't know who was responsible in fathering 6 puppies to their beloved maltese. They became aware that the maltese was expecting well into the pregnancy and soon enough whelped 9 beautiful puppies of unknown ancestry. Being a sucker for blue eyes I just had to have one and now she is a very much loved member of our family. Can anyone of you hazard a guess? what breed could the romeo responsible for such a pup be? She is now 6 months of age and we spayed her one month ago when she turned 5 months. Added more.

I suggest you voice your concerns to the greyhound board in your state. I cannot help but feel that there is so much ado about nothing. GRV make out like they're out for the welfare of GH but when the shit hits the fan they would sooner look the other way. I have reported these people for other things aside from using live bait but they're still very much racing their dogs as though not a word had been murmured to GRV and the RSPCA.

It is illegal. Keep on at the RSPCA until you get action. Also call the greyhound racing authority in your state. Follow up in writing with an email. It is cruel and wrong and it needs urgent investigation. I have contacted Greyhound Racing Victoria also, am not sure as to what transpired soon after the call, from the looks of things nothing has changed. The fact is that I am the only one that they know would object to this kind of practice therefore it is a case of them putting 2 and 2 together. I did what I felt I had to do but did not think that I had to be on both the RSPCA and GRV back's to get results. Losing faith in the RSPCA.

I have often thought of taking photos of the live rabbits in cages but I would have been seen doing this and I was not in a position to get involved. I was living on my own and we have had many arguments in the past which were followed by threats. I was afraid for my own animals as he did threatened to bait my dogs; I did on that occasion report him to the police and the officer that I spoke to said that there was not much he could do until after the deed . I took the chance to ring again and spoke to another police officer who had a different attitude, he actually went over to this man's place and warned him that if anything untoward was to happen to my dogs he would be held directly responsible. I have reported him to both Greyhound racing victoria and the RSPCA and the agreement was that they would follow it up and get back to me, I haven't heard from them and this man still continues with his hideous practices. I would presume that if the RSPCA did turn up to investigate they were probably told that the rabbits were kept as pets or as food for the dogs, that is that they were killed first and then fed to the dogs. That man is as cunning as a shithouse rat!

Deleted as it shows up too readily on google searches.

The greyhound racing industry should not exist. Only heartless individuals partake in it.

That one would be so funny, if only it wasn't true. I once had a young woman surrender a puppy she had purchased from a pet store the day before. (at $900 for a mixed breed). They hadn't told her the puppy would toilet, and she simply wasn't prepared to deal with that aspect of ownership. She may have thought it was stuffed or something. That would be a cross breed worth developing - the non peeing breed. This would have to be the excuse to top off all excuses! Wonder whether she pees? perhaps not.
