Campaign – get Pet Oxygen Masks on all fire engines
Can we run this as a campaign…to get pet masks on all fire engines for the brave fire fighters who rescue animals as well as humans. Please share it with all your friends and contacts. Why not fundraise for your local fire station to provide the masks if they don’t already have any.

Pumpkin – the health benefits for your dog
Interesting article on the benefits of pumpkin in your dog’s diet. My dogs love vegetables and whenever I am cutting up pumpkin, they are there waiting to share the small pieces of rind.

Starving and trapped in a steel snare…RIP sweet galga
This is yet another heartbreaking story of cruelty to galgos in Spain…this time Jerez, Cadiz.This poor young galga was would in this skeletal condition with her foot caught in an illegal trap – as if she hadn’t suffered enough! The person who found her called the police who called the dog catcher who took her to the perrera…where she was put down. Not a nice story but probably the best for the galga to end her suffering. Who knows how long she had been starving and suffering tied in the trap.
Man is the most damaging and criminal beast with the animals on earth, they should receive no forgiveness.

Is the Canidrome in Macau about to close?
My name is Albano Martins and I am the founder of ANIMA Macau and proudly serve on the board of directors of GREY2K USA Worldwide. I have been working with Christine Dorchak and Carey Theil since 2012 to close down dog tracks and give greyhounds the second chance they deserve.
Magic the greyhound2017 brought many successes for our campaign to end dog racing, including the shuttering of tracks in multiple countries around the world. Please read all the details in our annual newsletter the Advocate! Thankfully, one of the tracks that is about to close is the Canidrome, a track which is just across the bridge from my shelter in Macau. It will soon be leveled and replaced with new schools for local children. So now we are working very hard to raise funds for the safe release of the 650 dogs who have been lucky enough to survive this terrible place. One of our supporters is even running a race to help these dogs and the greyhounds in his home state of Florida!
