Generous supporters donate a staggering £1,444 to Action for Greyhounds UK after founder member – Annie Boddey – Skydives from 12,000 feet in a daredevil attempt to raise awareness and much needed funds.
Walthamstow Stadium closed its doors for the last time on August 16th and Greyhounds UK commence the tracking and monitoring of dogs displaced by its closure.
Greyhound Watch have another well researched article naming and shaming trainers who irresponsibly and economically give away ex racing greyhounds without home checks or neutering only for the neglectful new owners to abuse and abandon them.
