Greyhound Racing NSW continues to threaten me with legal action if I don't meet their demands. So I need to raise more funds to cover legal expenses. If you can assist me to keep fighting for my rights, your rights, & the rights of greyhounds, this is where to donate

INDUSTRY BUILT ON DEAD DOGS
Emma Hurst MP: "If there was an industry that killed hundreds of labradors for fun and gambling, would it still be legal?
