Here are the key findings from our survey:
- 57% think that the Senedd (Welsh Parliament) should vote to phase out dog racing, while only 21% are opposed.
- 55% think that greyhound racing is not important to the economy, while only 16% believe it is important.
- 50% would vote yes in a referendum to phase dog racing in Wales, while only 21% would vote no.
- 46% think that greyhounds bred for racing have a bad quality of life versus 28% that believe they have a good quality of life.
- 43% have an unfavorable view of greyhound racing versus 21% that have a favorable view.
Collectively, these results speak volumes and confirm that dog racing is a discredited and unpopular activity, no longer holding a social license to operate. |

Parliamentary debate will begin at approximately 11:30 am ET on Wednesday. Specifically, members will consider Petition P-06-1253, Ban Greyhound Racing in Wales, which was submitted by Hope Rescue in March 2022 and supported by the Senedd Petitions Committee in December.
