Subject: [ukanimalrights] Please support internet auction to benefit Scooby Refuge

PLEASE FORWARD WIDELY

SDGA have recently received the email below from our greyhound buddies who are working out at the SCOOBY refuge in Spain. Please see www.scoobymedina. com (To see the website in english please click on the welcome icon on the right hand side of the front webpage).
The Galgo Rescue International Network (GRIN) are having an internet auction to benefit SCOOBY running from the 17th January to the 23rd and there is some fabulous greyhound merchandise on sale. Greyhound lovers will certainly be very interested. Please click on the link below to enter the auction site and then click on the icon that says Galgo Rescue International Network.
Please support this very worthwhile auction and many Spanish galgos (similar to UK greyhounds) that have been abused and exploited by Spanish hunters will have a second chance of a dignified and peaceful life which they so rightly deserve.
Many thanks
SDGA

The Galgo Rescue International Network would like to announce an internet auction event to benefit the Scooby Protectora de Animales refuge in Medina Del Campo, Spain. The auction will begin on January 17, 2007 and will end January 23. It is being hosted by Carpe Canem and can be visited during those dates at http://www.carpecan em.com/auction/ . 100% of the proceeds (after shipping) will be given to the Scooby refuge.

The auction will feature more than 75 dog-related items including fabulous Fast Jack sportswear, Hound coats by Telma Shaw and her galgo coatmakers, many greyhound collectibles donated by Operation Greyhound, lovely jewelry and accessories by Neckcessories and Neckcessities (Elisabeth Weinerman), and a treasure trove of lovely items from Greytwear, Thera-Paw, Cheryl Johnson, Judy Greenfield, Betty Christian, Cindy Siddon, Jordan Graustark, and Lori Sanders.

Please visit the auction frequently and bid generously. Again, 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the Scooby refuge - and directly to the dogs.

We are very grateful for all the assistance we have received in preparing for this auction and would like to thank all of our donors for their generosity. We also are very grateful to Shirley Sureck of Florida for initiating the auction.
