Greyhound Rescue and the Economic Downturn

Stories are beginning to appear that indicate the pet world is feeling the pinch. Pets of all kinds are being abandoned by owners no longer able to afford them. Whatever you might think of people who abandon their pets, the fact remains that sometimes when faced with the stark choice of feeding their children or their pets, the children win every time.

Dumping a dog is an appalling act that cannot be condoned, but the fact is, it happens, so the best thing is to deal with the consequences rather than wasting our energies wringing our hands trying to stop the unstoppable.

Now more than ever, your local Greyhound, or any other, rescue centre needs support. Whether in the form of money or time, any help would be gratefully received. My local centre Kerry Greyhound Connection relies on donations and we do what we can to help them raise funds, but more is always needed.  Hint, there's a handy PayPal button on their site.

As more dogs are abandoned, so more foster homes are needed. Why not contact your local rescue centre today? You're assured of a warm welcome!
