Target: Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of Australia
Goal: Demand Australia ban the artificial impregnation of greyhounds in favor of more humane, less invasive alternatives.
Recently, a movement to ban the artificial impregnation of greyhounds in Australia was overturned in a New South Wales animal welfare bill, despite much opposition from veterinary technicians and the public majority. This highly invasive, unnecessary, and unethical procedure—which is illegal in most countries throughout the world—is oftentimes extremely painful for dogs who undergo it. Ovulating female dogs are anesthetized, and their abdomens are cut open. The uterus is then injected with semen before being returned to the dogs’ abdomen.
In addition to the dangers of anesthetics and invasive procedures, a series of life-threatening health complications–including blood-clotting–can arise after this surgery. Still, this practice is thriving throughout Australia as a means to produce racing greyhounds, as well as other types of dog breeds like French bulldogs and pugs.
Sign this petition to demand an end to this cruel surgical procedure and to protect greyhounds under Australian law.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Prime Minister Albanese,
There are many reasons why artificially impregnating greyhounds has been outlawed in other countries. For instance, this procedure–which is regarded as unethical by a large percentage of the vets forced to perform it–is extremely invasive. It involves anesthetizing ovulating female dogs, cutting their abdomens open, and injecting their uterus with semen. In addition to the risks from the anesthetics, dogs may suffer from a series of health conditions–such as blood-clotting–in the aftermath of the surgery.
We are asking you, Mr. Albanese, to ban this cruel practice in Australia. Our entertainment is not worth these dogs’ severe suffering.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Excellent , agree with everything you said .
These poor dogs need to be protected.
This is disgraceful and beyond inhumane!
This must stop and be made illegal immediately! Those poor helpless dogs, how are people doing this and thinking it’s alright, no big deal!?!??? You have to be vile and extremely pathetic to even consider such behaviour to do upon these innocent animals.
Really, what morbid, God-complex-consumed, individual came up with this in the first place? Keep your hands, your instruments and your evil plans to yourself. Experiment on each other! Setting aside an island where all the warped individuals, who prey on animals, are instead set loose on each other – would be a fitting end for them all…..
I don’t understand why we’re still racing animals. Again, for humans’ selfish entertainment.
Ban racing.
As if greyhound racing is not cruel enough, putting these innocent dogs’ health and lives unnecessarily @ risk for this dangerously invasive procedure is beyond cruel! This is just another reason to put this horrific so-called “sport and entertainment” to an end completely and permanently!!
CHRIST, IS THERE NO END TO THE LEVEL OF DEPRAVITY, GREED, AND DISREGARD FOR LIFE??? THESE COWARDLY NON-HUMANS ARE EVIDENCE THAT NOT ALL SPECIES EVOLVE; WE ARE BOMBARDED WITH EXAMPLES OF “HUMANS” MUTATING!!!! ONCE AGAIN, WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE PAID TO PREVENT AND PROSECUTE AIMAL ABUSE? OR ARE THEY JUST TOO BRAIN DEAD TO KNOW ABUSE WHEN THEY SEE IT???
THIS MAKES ME HOPE THEY NEVER MANAGE ANY OTHER PLANET AFTER THE DESTRUCTION AND PAIN THE “HUMAN” SPECIES HAS IMPOSED ON EARTH-
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO UNDERESTIMATE THE NUMBER OF MUTANTS MASQUERADING AS HUMAN BEING-
