DutchGalgoLobby is a Dutch foundation which is actively approaching Dutch and European political parties and members of parliament to clarify the mistreatment of the Spanish Galgo and the associated hunting and gambling issues. Ed van Dort explains their work.
‘In the Netherlands we found support from various political parties such as the Dutch Animal Party (Partij voor de Dieren) which has two seats in Dutch Parliament and the PVV (Party for Freedom) which has 24 seats in parliament. Furthermore we are in close contact with members of European Parliament and several Animal protection organizations.
