It's interesting that @GreyhoundBoard is using Dr. Madeleine Campbell to defend itself today & attack @RSPCA_official @DogsTrust & @The_Blue_Cross.

Dr. Campbell has extreme views on killing healthy animals. Here are direct quotes. (1 of 5)

@ChrisBurghes @RSPCAChris @HopeRescue "In the case of retired animal athletes, euthanasia at the end of a racing career has the advantage that the fate of the animal is secured, and the guarantee that the animal will not suffer any subsequent welfare problems."

@GreyhoundBoard Same Dr. Campbell:

"The Society of Greyhound Vets...stated that the euthanasia of healthy greyhounds no longer required for racing is ‘the greatest single welfare issue of concern’. This seems to me to be incorrect. Euthanasia...is, by definition, not a welfare issue.

(more) @GreyhoundBoard "whether or not I find killing an animal acceptable depends not only upon its capacity for sentience, but also upon the reason why I am killing that animal – or the way in which I am using it."
