February
2012 One of the Erin team has been working
closely with a wonderful group of knitters who
have been beavering away to make coats for the
kennel dogs in Ireland patiently waiting their
turn.
As you can see, the results are fantastic, thank you so much from us and the Irish kennel hounds!
January 2012 At Erin Hounds, we come across hounds that particularly need our help due to injury, neglect or medical conditions.
It was particularly rewarding, therefore, to start the new year by finding loving and understanding homes for two of these dogs who have so much love and happiness to give. A massive thank you goes to their new families without whom, these dogs would still be waiting.
One of these, poor Harper broke his leg in a race and the break was left untreated by his owner as Harper was no longer of any value. The break healed leaving a slight deformity but otherwise Harper was well. Thanks to a lady who was prepared to overlook this imperfection, he now has a loving home in Cheshire where he regularly meets Erin hounds for walks and fun, having become a member of the local "BBB ( Big black boy) club".
November 2011 - 100 hounds homed! We are delighted to be able to say that Erin hounds have homed 100 dogs since our inception. Thanks to all the Volunteers, Adopters and Supporters, we really couldn't do it without every single one of you!! Here's to the next 100!

September 2011 - Greyhound Racing in India
A campaign has been launched to stop
greyhound racing being developed in
India with the set up of a new proposed
greyhound track in Punja.
If commercial greyhound racing were set
up in India it is inevitable that many
thousands of greyhounds will suffer and
die as a result.
Erin Hounds along
with many other animal welfare
organisations are urging their
supporters to sign the petition below
and
to lodge a protest with the Prime
Minister of India on his website
http://pmindia.nic.in/feedback.htm and
with the Deputy
Chief Minister of Punjab, Sardar Sukhbir
Singh Badal by emailing
secretarydcm@gmail.com.
Please sign the petition:

August 2011 - You can now donate directly to Erin Hounds using paypal! Look out for the yellow Donate button on the menu bar. Even the smallest donation will help us look after the hounds, with every penny going towards their care...
**Special appeal** For anyone living in the
Runcorn/Widnes area it would be a tremendous
help if someone could give Sue occasional help
with transporting of dogs between kennels and
vets. It would just be occasionally but to have
an extra pair of hands would be such a great
help.
