Tasmanian Greyhound Trainer Gets 8 Years
Well known Tasmanian greyhound trainer Ted Medhurst has been disqualified form training for 8 years after stewards had found Medhurst had:
- Destroyed 11 greyhounds with a firearm,
- Falsified documents,
- Gave false and misleading evidence to an inquiry and
- Removed blank documentation with a letterhead from a veterinary surgeon’s practice.
Also some interesting comments on this story from the The Mercury. Two views seem to be issues relating to vet fees and animal welfare. Both are I feel are very relevant.
