Just out of curiosity (and if you believe that...) how do your greys manage with stairs? Does anyone live in a flat with lots of stairs? Is it bad for their joints to go up and down stairs a lot? Are they scared of them? I'm in a 3rd floor tenement with 55 stairs and was just wondering, as i said, out of cur...

Hi Folks, We have a couple of new dogs Djinn & Sleet, who are just the cutest pair of little lurcher boys. This pair have been living together and now really need a new home where they can still live with their best friend. Claire

I can see why Deano is so popular he is lovely......but, I like Jet the elderly lurcher. Kaz was about the same age when I got him and we spent 3 wonderful years together. I dont know why more people dont go for the older dogs, cos they deserve a break especially Jet, who seems to have led quite a sad life. H...

Hi All, Last year I remember that GAL people did some car boot sales to raise money for the kennel fund. Is that going to happen again this year as Graham and I are having a bit of a spring clean and a clear out. I can hang on to things if they will be wanted otherwise I will sort it for charity shops and free...

Reading about the Edinburgh reservoir and then the Bellahouston doggie park and how many people wanted to know where they were made me think about how many other undiscovered beauties there must be. So I thought I'd start a topic where we could share good walks - I'd look forward to coming across o...

Isn't Deano on the website a real cutie?! Love the idea of people donating from the dogs "portfolio" - hope it brings in a few more pennies! Sharon

Carole2 · Carole2

I would just like to say that I think the section when viewing the dogs to donate is a fantastic idea. It certainly prompted me to donate, the only problem with so many cuties like Deano and Sadie, which do you choose?? Well done! Carole
