For most of the last year the shelters have been
unable to have school visits or go to schools to talk
to the children. The activities from our education
website
https://eduction.greyhoundsinneed.co.uk
have continued to be been downloaded which is good
news. Some groups in Spain are hoping they can
have summer camps for the children this year.
We have been able to fund the building of some mini kennels at Galgos del Sol
in Murcia. Tina and her team rescue many galgos in and around their area and
work tirelessly to give them every chance to recover from their ordeals and
have the chance of life in a home.
Galgos del Sol—2015 We have supported Tina for some
years now and on our second visit in
2015 we were able to visit the site of
the new shelter, it was huge and work
had just started on the first kennel
block. (photos left)
Over the years we have continued to
support the work of Tina and her
helpers with funding for initial
veterinary costs, education grants
etc and also been able to take some
galgos from her for homing here in
the UK.
Our new group will be coming from
Galgos del Sol and you can see more
details of this lovely group of 15
galgos on pages 16-18.
We heard from Tina earlier this year
that the final project at the shelter
was to provide two day parks for the
galgos, two areas at the far end of
the site, away from the kennels where
the dogs could spend the day and
chill out with each other and the
volunteers.
