The Greyhound Welfare and Integrity Commission has confirmed it is currently investigating a greyhound compliance matter at a Narromine property.

Earlier this month, a concerned resident contacted Dubbo Photo News alleging that more than 20 greyhounds were being kept in a tin shed on a property located off Dandaloo St in south Narromine, close to the central business district.

Our source expressed concern for the health and wellbeing of the animals allegedly being kept in a facility not designed to be a kennel, as well as the impact of their barking on residents living nearby and local businesses on Narromine's main street.

The source told Dubbo Photo News complaints had been made to the Narromine Shire Council and the Greyhound Welfare and Integrity Commission, but no action had appeared to have been taken.

This journalist attended the site three times between November 6 and November 13, and on two of those occasions heard dogs barking from inside the shed, but did not see any dogs or anyone onsite caring for the animals at those times.

Dubbo Photo News has also not been able to independently verify the alleged ownership of the dogs or the real estate firm involved in renting the shed in question, or how long the animals allegedly have been kept at the site, which is inside the Narromine urban area and is subject to the council's comprehensive Keeping of Domestic Animals Policy.

In a statement, Narromine Shire Council General Manager Jane Redden said the council is aware of the matter and taking action.

"Council is aware of the issue and is liaising with the NSW Greyhound Welfare and Integrity Commission as well as the real estate agent to have the dogs removed from the premises," Ms Redden said.

Under the Greyhound Racing Act (2017), the Greyhound Welfare and Integrity Commission has regulatory oversight of all greyhounds in the possession of NSW greyhound racing participants, the agency told Dubbo Photo News in a statement.

"As the investigation is ongoing, the Commission cannot provide any further information relating to this matter at this stage," it added.

"The Commission takes all allegations of wrongdoing extremely seriously and encourages anyone with greyhound welfare or racing integrity concerns to contact the Commission via phone on 13 49 42, by email at emailus@gwic.nsw.gov.au or filling out a confidential online form which can be found on its website at www.gwic.nsw.gov.au/welfare/report-a-concern," the statement concluded.
