Our Work Abroad We have had a busy start to the year and at the
time of going to print fifty-six galgos have left Spain to start their new
lives in Belgium, France, Italy, Slovenia,
and Switzerland.
This has been possible thanks to the
great co-operation we have with many
refuges and adoption groups abroad.
Wilfrid of Levriers en Difficulte lives in
the Pyrenees and is finding more and
more homes for the galgos. The events
he organises are well attended,
especially the walks. He recently went to
Vic to collect Celia, Siena, Claus and Uma, originally from Albacete, and Lucas
and Ines, originally from Madrid. More photos and a video of Wilfrid's last
visit to Vic can be seen on our website. He is now planning his next visit to
collect 6 more lucky galgos who will get the chance of a new life in France.
In Normandy we are fortunate to work
with Jacqueline and Max and their group,
Association Sauvetage de Levriers. They
were able to take 37 galgos from Vic last
year and have already been to Vic to
collect Zara, Vainilla, Patan, Torcaz,
Carmina and Diva originally from Albacete,
Madrid and Almendralejo. They have
another trip to Vic soon to collect some
more galgos.
In Provence we work with Kathi of SOS
Levriers - she also regularly visits Vic to collect
galgos for homing in France. One lucky galga,
collected by Kathi recently, was Lyra, shown in
the photo on the right. She has already
settled in very well with her new family.
