Freddy (aka Russ) - rehomed earlier this year



Hi All at GLWR
 
Made a bit of  splash at the village fete on Saturday.
 
We went along for a sniff around and to show our support. I was so embarrassed when they entered me into the dog show in the category of mixed parentage - what a cheek!!
 
Anyway I showed them - wining first  prize - a toy and rosette.
 
As a group winner I had to go back for the parade for "dog of the show". They don't call me handsome Freddy for nothing as I won that as well - another rosette, another toy and some treats - yipeeee. 


 
I have put my new trophy to good use and it can sit by me bed for the year
 
Take care and hopefully see you soon
 
Freddy
 
PS - Did you notice that I can now sit with treats in front of me and not run off with them -  part of my gentlemanly behaviour training



GLWR ANNUAL REUNION 2010

A big thank you to everybody who helped make this such a lovely day despite the scorching weather.



Millie and Arthur wonder what all the fuss is about.

 

  Please welcome GLWR's newest sponsor dogs

Rudi



Rudi the lurcher was handed in to a dog's home in a terrible condition. His feet, ears and nose were a rotting mess and it was thought that the kindest thing to do would be to put this  poor soul to sleep to end his suffering.
Luckily though, his carers saw a spark of something, a will to live in this terribly neglected and suffering boy and decided to ask the vet if there was anything at all he could do.

Lucy Lu



Hi I'm Lucy Lu. I am two years old but look like I'm ten years old due to my horrible injuries. These injuries mean that GLWR have put me into a long term foster home with, would you believe it, three other greyhounds and even more visiting greyhounds. They tell me that they call this place “Granny’s Dog Centre”. Mind, I love them all to bits.

Read the rest of my story on the Sponsor Dogs page.

and catch up with other members, events and, of course, the GLWR dogs.
You will be very welcome.
