Our Work Abroad

In our last newsletter I mentioned that we had a new
contact in Spain, Sandy, who runs Galgos Rescue Almeria.
We were able to arrange for some of the galgos they
rescued to be transported and homed in France, thanks to
Therese of Association Aide aux Levriers Martyrs.

Sandy rescues many galgos in her area and
this year, like so many of the shelters, has
received more galgos than normal. They
were looking to increase the kennel area so
that they could accommodate more dogs
and asked for our help.

We have been able to offer to fund two
new kennel areas for them. Work has
started and the first new kennel is up and
work is continuing on the other kennel and
getting this kitted out for the dogs.

We have also been able to offer some help
for some awnings at the centre which will
provide much needed shade for the dogs
during the very hot weather.

We’ve added a new function to our on
line shop. You can now ‘shop for the
shelters’ by letting us know during the
checkout process which items in your
cart you’d like to send in our next
delivery to Spain.

Our ‘care’ packages for the galgos are
always well received, and we’re pleased
to be able to offer this option to our
supporters. Coats, collars, leads, and
even educational merchandise to help
the shelters in their mission to educate
the next generation will all be welcome.
