NEW CAMPAIGN LAUNCH: Sign our petition to end greyhound racing!

Posted on the 7th August 2025

Our new campaign to end greyhound racing across the UK has officially launched today. We are inspired by the recent compassionate decision by Wales to ban greyhound racing and the decades of work by rescue organisations and grassroots groups to campaign for these amazing dogs. It’s time for the rest of the UK to follow suit and end the barbaric ‘sport’ which has killed and destroyed more than 4,000 dogs since 2017.

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

Hidden suffering

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!
