Well another wonderful afternoon and many thanks to the Organisers of Little Bealings Village Fete for inviting us to their event and Dog Show.
The weather stayed fine and we were once again able to showcase our ever popular tombola, Greyhound Trust merchandise and a big hit today was the Children’s Lucky Dip, where everyone was a winner!
We were joined today from the kennels by the wonderful Carlos, who was spoilt rotten by volunteers Susan and Dana, who report he happily engaged with everyone, especially the little people that paid a visit to our stall and likewise enjoyed meeting all the other dogs that crossed his path. Carlos is an especially happy dog (his waggy tail is his trademark) and a wonderful companion in the car as he travelled to/from the event. The highlight for Carlos today was his very important role as lead greyhound, as all our ambassadors and friends took to the ring to proudly show the crowd just how wonderfully majestic these creatures are. I think you’ll agree from the footage, they did us proud!
As ever, a real team spirit today and the role of a volunteer is a fabulous role to have and never a dull moment, especially for John (or should I say Uncle Fester) who bravely stepped forward as the willing volunteer (no coercion here :O)) and took to the stocks… all in aid of a good cause of course!
Many thanks to the many ambassadors and our old friends who came along today, to support and chat with the public. We so love catching up with you all and seeing how happy our furry friends are, living their best lives and it’s down to the generosity of you, the public, either by rehoming one of these beautiful dogs, (please do look on the Suffolk Greyhound Trust website for more details about rehoming) or supporting us along the way at one of the many events we attend, that enables us to continue doing what we love and that is working together to find that comfy sofa, where lots of hugs and cuddles await. It truly is a dog’s life 🐶
