Subject: Close Oxford Greyhound Track

Please could you share details of a new petition to raise awareness to
Oxford City Council and close Oxford Greyhound track.

Opponents of the recently presented Housing Plans from Galliard Homes for
Oxford Greyhound track, are to petition the Government and Oxford City
Council to try and continue racing Greyhounds at the track.
Housing Plans are to be submitted later this year and could finaly see an
end to Greyhounds suffering for Oxford, where Andrew Raven, spokesman for
Galliard Homes has said 'that greyhound racing had no future there as it
made insufficient money. '

Please sign this petition in support of an end to Greyhounds suffering for
tradition at Oxford.

By signing this petition you can help raise awareness to Oxford City Council
how:
* Recently, Michael Peterson faced 2 serious disciplinarycharges for
positive greyhound urine samples, on the eve of quitting as an Oxford
Trainer, shortly after a preliminary investigation into 2 Oxford Trainers'
Greyhounds showed improved performance.
*And the recent death of a greyhound, who was found distressed on being
taken out of his racing kennel shortly before being raced at Oxford.

These are just a few examples of the sad reality that greyhounds endure to
sustain an Industry in decline.
An industry that takes very little regard or responsibility of the thousands
of greyhounds bred for it.

With the opportunity now presented by Galliard Homes to see the track used
with an ethical future, it is now time for Oxford City Council to take
notice of the greyhound plight.

Please see Greyhound Safe for further information on how you can join the
voice for greyhounds.
