Greyhound racing in Scotland is “beyond reform” as some dogs are drugged with illegal substances such as cocaine, MSPs have been told.
Campaigners from Scotland Against Greyhound Exploitation (Sage) asked the Scottish Parliament ’s Rural Affairs, Islands and Natural Environment Committee to call for a complete ban on the sport.
Scotland has just one regulated race track, the Shawfield Stadium in Rutherglen near Glasgow. There is also one unregulated track at Thornton in Kirkcaldy, Fife.
