The
Galgos are
coming!
In April, David
and Marci
Anderson will
travel to
Barcelona, Spain
for a rescue
mission to help
abandoned galgos.
With the help
of SCG
volunteer,
Alicia Daerr,
SCG received an
extremely
generous grant
from PNC to
rescue these
horribly abused
greyhounds in
2012.
Steel City
Greyhounds
partnership with
SOS Galgos' was
created in 2004.
Our
relationship has
been
affectionately
called the "Paws
Across the Pond"
partnership.
Since then, SCG
has successfully
saved the lives
of almost 30
abused galgos.
This
international
rescue mission
has created and
established a
relationship
with Anna
Clements and
Albert Sorde,
founders of SOS
Galgos. Check
out the SOS
Galgos website
for more
information
about the plight
of the galgo.
Watch for
photos of the
rescue mission
coming in April.
