The Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM) arranged for the media to visit the 550 left-behind greyhounds at the now defunct Macau (Yat Yuen) Canidrome yesterday and talk to Anima board member Tinna Tang, widely known as Zoe.
When the media representatives arrived at the Canidrome in Fai Chi Kei the greyhounds were being walked by the volunteers that have signed up to help Anima take care of the canines that were abandoned by the racetrack operator when it finally closed its doors at midnight last Friday.
After the dog-racing concession had expired, IACM asked Anima and other animal rescue centres in Macau, including the Macau Association for Stray Dogs and Animal Welfare (MASDAW) to help look after the dogs.
