W.R.I. are delighted to announce that we are organising the first ever Irish walk to take part in the hugely popular Great British Greyhound Walk. On the 26th of June people all over the UK and now Ireland will walk their hounds together at the same time. Last year the numbers reached 1000 and they hope to exceed that number this year. The Dublin walk will take place in Kilmashogue Forest on 26th June at 10am. Anyone interested in attending should register their interest by emailing janeb.wri@gmail.com Further information on the Great British Greyhound Walk can be found here: GBGW   This walk is for whippets, greyhounds and lurchers and is a strictly ON LEAD WALK.

Dublin Dog Walk! There will be a walk on June 19th in Dublin raising the awareness of the general public to the welfare of Greyhounds and the fact that they make great pets. Walkers will meet up at 12.00pm at the Northern Corner of St. Stephens Green and the walk will start at 13.00, walk approx. 2 miles, ending back at Stephens Green. Anyone who wishes to walk a shorter distance is very welcome. All welcome, children and dogs too. This is being organised by the Greyhound Rescue Association of Ireland. Hope to see you there!
