That leads to my next question about why greyhounds should be incorporated into such a national database or portal. Both the Department and Dogs Trust have flagged that, because these databases are run by commercial bodies, they might not want to share the information but we should still have a single portal that is accessible to those who need access to it. Why would greyhounds be included in that, given they have their own separate system? Why is that so important?
