Amazing Great Global Greyhound Walk

This weekend we had two events, we were very busy!

Haskins Collection:

On Saturday we were at Haskins, West End collecting, we were very fortunate that some of our kennel dogs attended too, to attract the public into us!

We had a lovely day, meeting new people as well as seeing friends too, everyone was very generous with their donations.  Our dogs were very well behaved and the staff were all very welcoming.

We raised £444.09 for our kennel dogs.

Thank You Haskins!

Great Global Greyhound Walk:

On Sunday we hosted our own walk at Lyndhurst, the walk was very well attended, we had 65 people come along to the walk and 58 sighthounds were with them too!

It was lovely to see everyone get involved.

Everyone enjoyed the walks.

The cakes went down well and we also had a small raffle too.  We raised £288.39 during the morning.

We are so grateful to everyone who attended the walk.  Thank You.  The team look forward to next years Great Global Greyhound Walk.
