A record number of greyhounds are turning up at animal welfare and rescue centres across NSW in the wake of the live baiting scandal.

Greyhound Rescue, an organisation set up by Peter and Janet Flann to find homes for dogs that were no longer wanted in the racing industry, has 70 dogs that need to find homes.

Ms Flann said they had six dogs arrive in six days recently. She said they now had a record number of dogs in their care and more dogs kept arriving.

There are also 47 greyhounds waiting for homes through the GRNSW Greyhounds As Pets program.
