The article looks great Dave - hope all the other Press releases are as promising.

Was there somewhere in the article that gave contact details for folk if they wanted to enquire abotu Greys, or donate to the KF ?

Regardless - all good publicity....

the articles on the web tend to be summaries of the actual articles that appear in the paper so there should be contact info and some nice piccies in the 'proper' version!

There's a cracking photo of Lori and the dogs on page 2 of today's Herald! Absolutely brill.


Only pity is that the article doesn't include GAL's contact detailsbut it's all good publicity.

here's the Evening Times article (thanks Dawn) it's included here twice so you can read all the text!!


Charles's interview on Radio Scotland went out on their NewsDrive program at 16:50, if you missed it, you can listen to it tomorrow online, just go to the BBC Scotland website and select 'Listen Again'..

Hi Everyone,


Trei came along with me to the BBC at Queen Margaret Drive for the GAL Kennel Fund Interview. Not that he was required for radio lol  Use every opportunity to show off greyhounds  and their behaviour  I thought


I think the  female journalist that met us in reception wondered if Trei could cope with the busy news room.  No problems I said.


Everyone made a fuss of Trei but had to dash back to work - 4.00pm  DEADLINE was approaching. Anyway after the attention  and the offer of water etc  Trei sprawled out flat on the news room floor quite content that BBC carpet tiles were comfy enough. ( they remembred me a bit later and I got some water )


He came with me into the recording booth and lay down again while the interview took place - wanted to show interviewer Abir McIntyre that he would not make a sound and ruin the recording.


Trei  was concerned that the interview did not last long and he had to get up again. 


Can you think of other breeds of dogs that you could trust not to make a noise during a recording.


Charles

Charles, although I didn't hear your interview on the radio, it's certainly a job well done  and you too Trei

I've sent a scanned and "giffed" copy of the article to you, Dave. As I said in the email, will look in tonight's local papers too just in case, and forward on any findings.

Has anyone found any more? I want to keep the press page on the kennel fund website up to date...

I was told the other night that there had been a small piece in "Our Dogs" (I think that's the name of the paper - & I'm not sure of the issue date) before the Awareness Day at Langbank.  Friends of ours show Belgian SDs & Jim told me over the phone - he is going to put the copy through my door so I'll send you a copy.


Also chap at work comes from Port Glasgow & had mentioned the piece in the Greenock Tilly so will see if he kept it & will send you a copy of that too.

Thanks Shirley - have got the Greenock Telegrpah article now.

I have a scanned copy of the Our Dogs one but a paper copy would be good for future use. Cheers Caroline.
