Our Work Abroad
Some of the plans we had for the last year have had to be put on hold as the
shelters and adoption groups we work with have also had restrictions to deal
with in their own countries.
The shelters have continued to rescue and care for many galgos and we know
how hard everything has been for them. We have been able to continue our
funding for the necessary initial veterinary care their rescues have needed
and also, when possible, cover some transport costs for moving the galgos
within Spain.
The adoption groups have, like us, received many home offers and have been
working their way through these. We were therefore very pleased that Arca
de Noe in Albacete were able to organise a transport, in January, of 20 galgos
to the Greyhound Adopt Centre, Italy. You can see some photos opposite of
some of them in their new homes.
Elisa, Chiara, Lily, Sabrina and their team at GACI are amazing as they were
also able to arrange the transport of 27 greyhounds from Ireland to Italy.
Their adopters were so pleased to finally meet their new dogs.
You can see videos of their arrival at these links -

Nina and her team at SASIN travelled to Arca de Noe, Albacete in February
to collect sixteen galgos, including Thor, Chenoa, Carlota and Alejo (below) for
homing in Slovenia.
