News Update

Dear Friends,

Here we are again coming to the end of another year and putting this
newsletter together has given me the opportunity to look back over the
months at the work we have been doing.

Firstly, news on our last group of galgos who arrived in June. They were a
lovely group and many were soon adopted. They came from Galgos del Sol in
Murcia and we are grateful to Tina and her team for organising the veterinary
treatment and necessary paperwork for entry to the UK. More news on their
adoptions on pages 10-11.

We are lucky to continue to have help with the homing from Sue and her
friend Lynda. They have spent many hours at the kennels getting to know the
new galgos which certainly helps with the homing. For this last group they
have been joined by Mark who kindly volunteered to help with walking and
socialising the galgos.

Our new group, will be arriving next month, their details and photos are on
pages 18-19. If you would like to offer a home to a galgo please give us a call
and we can send out our homing pack or you can download this and our homing
questionnaire from our website.

Many of you will remember galgo Moo
who came to the UK in June 2021.
Soon after being adopted he was
diagnosed with a jaw problem and had
to undergo major surgery. It was a
complex operation carried out by
specialist vets and two further
operations were required.

His recovery has been long, and not
without setbacks, but we were very
lucky that he could be fostered during
this time by Heather. Our Trustee,
Leigh, who is a vet, was also able to monitor him
regularly and give us updates on his progress.

I am pleased to say with time and lots of TLC he has
recovered well and has now been adopted by GIN
supporters Lynne and Peter in Buckinghamshire.
He is now called Stan and as you can see from the
photographs he has settled well, even with the family
cat!
