Story

HELP ME RAISE AWARENESS AND FUNDS TO SUPPORT FRIENDS OF THE HOUND - GREYHOUND ADOPTION GROUPMuch help is needed to save Greyhounds.


 

For Greyhounds it is the QUICK or the DEAD ... they literally run for their lives. Sadly 20,000 Greyhound are bred in Australia every year with most being killed because they are too slow.

 

Over the course of the next 12 months I will be taking part in various physically challenging events that will put me to the test. Thankfully I won't be killed for running too slow.

 

In September I ran 9km at the Sydney Running Festival and raised $530. My next run is 10km at the Central Coast Half Marathon. My ultimate goal is to raise $2500 and run the Half Marathon at the Gold Coast Marathon in July 2012. Please help me acheive it by donating and/or spreading the word.

 

PLEASE help me support Friends of the Hound they need your help.

About Friends of the Hound

Friends of the Hound are a not-for-profit, volunteer-based group dedicated to Greyhound welfare. The organisation rescues Greyhounds and rehomes them as family pets and companions. Money raised goes towards rescuing and caring for the dogs, and placing them into suitable homes. Friends of the Hound Inc. work tirelessly to promote the breed as pets, dispel the misconceptions and raise public awareness about the plight of Greyhounds.

 

Greyhounds make great pets!

Greyhounds are gentle, friendly dogs that love human companionship and are well-suited as indoor pets. Their quiet and essentially lazy nature make them perfect for suburban homes, and their tolerant and placid temperament make them suitable for living with kids and the elderly.

Friends of the Hound Inc.

Friends of the Hound Inc. is a not-for-profit, volunteer based association dedicated to the welfare of Greyhounds. This involves promoting the breed as excellent family pets and companions, and advocating ‘adoption, not destruction’ by rescuing Greyhounds and rehoming them into suitable, permanent homes as much-loved pets. The group’s mission is to save the lives of Greyhounds and reduce the mass wastage that currently occurs due to a commercial racing and gambling industry. Greyhounds make great pets, and these gentle, friendly, affectionate dogs have perfect potential for suburban homes and families suffer from wide misconceptions and face exploitation and destruction in vast numbers. Friends of the Hound Inc. work tirelessly to help these dogs and continue their successful rescue and rehoming efforts.
