MIXED DOUBLES

We have been busy little bees these last few weeks with talks at St. Martins and St. Saviour's schools and more recently we attended La Pouquelaye W.I. and the 14th First Tower Brownie Guide Pack.

Some of the ladies at the La Pouquelaye W.I.

We would like to do more talks for W.I.'s and similar so please do get in touch if you have a slot you need filling.

What was so satisfying about this talk was a little girl called Olivia seen on the far right of the photo. When we arrived she was very apprehensive about the dogs and indeed stayed at the back of the group. By the end of our talk she had relaxed a bit and to our delight ended up patting the dogs and taking our little fawn bitch Fern, seen with her above, for a little potter round the room. Result!!!

We do these talks to raise awareness of the plight of these dogs, these children are the next generation so if they can learn from our chats hopefully greyhound racing and the cruelty involved with it may become less although we know it will never be stamped out.

Also, like Olivia, because they are such a placid breed we sometimes find that children who are a little wary of dogs find their confidence with our guys because they are so calm.

PLEASE GET IN TOUCH IF YOU WOULD LIKE US TO DO A TALK OR SCHOOL ASSEMBLY FOR YOU.
