When a greyhound retires from racing its future lies in the hands of its owner. Many are simply put to sleep, or meet much worse fates. At Hersham Hounds in Surrey, there's a place of safety for retired greyhounds whilst they wait for their special home. These are not 'rescue dogs' in the accepted sense as most are handed over by the trainer, on behalf of their owners, with the express intention of finding them a good retirement home.
Hersham Hounds actively promote the fact that Greyhounds make wonderful pets and adapt to life outside of the kennels very well. Come along to the kennels or one of the many exciting Future Events to meet the greyhounds and see for yourselves what wonderful pets they make.
This year's AGM will be held on Saturday 3rd March. Please check your emails to confirm time and venue. All will be welcome to attend, and comments, questions, suggestions and thoughts are all welcome (to the usual email address).
Your Committee would like to take this opportunity to wish each and every one of you, and your families, a very Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!
