Coventry Greyhound Group is made up of people from across the Coventry and Warwickshire area who own, or who promote ownership of, ex-racing greyhounds and other sighthound breeds. We meet up for monthly dog walks, enjoy social events, dogs shows and meet online at Coventry Greyhound Group Forum . There is no 'membership' - anyone can join in. Why not register on the forum and find out more?
If you have a greyhound, lurcher or other skinny dog, why not get involved with Coventry Greyhound Group during 2009? There are lots of ways to join in. You will find out about our monthly Group Walks below.
Or you could join in greyhound chat and advice online at our forum:
We aim to have stalls at local dog shows and are always happy for people to help out on the day.
Alternatively, you many want to join in one of our social events. From bowling, karaoke, through meals out, to camping, we hold a range of social events during the year.
Membership is free - and open to all! Just join in. If you want to talk to us, contact Heather on 07806 226508 or email heather.payne9@btinternet.com
Meet in The car park, usual time 10-45 meet for 11-00 start. Click on the link and it will take you to map. Please note that car parking fee was £1.50 last time we was there but may of gone up so please bring some extra money. Thanks to fay and Darrin for organising this walk.
We are not a rehoming charity and therefore do not have greyhounds needing homes. However, we do provide lots of information and links to rescues and charities who do have many hounds which need rehoming. Read all about them at: Coventry Greyhound Forum.
One such rescue is Greyhound Gap. They always have hounds in foster homes looking for permanent homes. For details and information on their rehoming criteria, visit the Greyhound Gap Website.
There is no 'official' membership of the group - just join in! To find out more and receive our regular email updates, contact Heather at admin@coventrygreyhound.org.uk
