This is a message from a contact in the USA, but this man could equally make enquiries of any of the UK or European rescue associations.
I’m posting to alert those of you who work in adoption groups to beware of an inquiry from a man in Canada who is trying to adopt a greyhound for potentially racing in India. I answer emails for Greyhound Friends here in MA, and I’ve received several emails from this person wanting to adopt from us.
Dear all,
Please feel free to download our new song and share it to help spread a positive message that greyhounds and galgos (Spanish greyhounds) make fantastic companions and their welfare and protection is vital.

Levriers in Danger are appealing for medicines and coats for the refuges in Spain.
They would also like help from anyone who can help with transporting galgos and podencos from Spain to France.
El refugio del Burrito are celebrating the 2nd “fiesta de Galgos” and you, your beloved 4 legged friends, family and contacts are all invited.
It will be another GREAT day for everyone to be together for the love galgos and to highlight their desperate plight.
Its an amazing way to support their plight and huge numbers of people are needed. The galgos need you, so lets hope to see you there.
Great news from Massachusets and it’s not about Obama! This just came in from one of the campaigners to close the state’s 2 dog tracks. Erica Mueller reports.
‘Massachusetts voters approved the ballot initiative to phase out greyhound racing at the state’s 2 dog tracks by January 2010. I was very active on the Steering Committee for the first attempt, in 2000, at which time we lost by 2% of the vote.
This time, the Greyhounds won by a 12% margin. Certain other states have laws prohibiting the establishment of dog racing
PRO-GALGO is currently running an auction on our forum to riase money for the galgos.
