Ms Hilary Forde:

A total of 404 retired greyhounds were rehomed from January to November 2014, which represents an increase of 30% from 2013. Such rehoming agencies exist throughout Italy, the Czech Republic and, most recently, Canada. We are exploring every avenue that is possible to find suitable homes for racing greyhounds.
