Brindlebabe Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 We are all very pleased to announce that our next auction will be held between 19th and 26th November and the beneficiary will be Tailends http://www/tailends.co.uk . I know many of you will know what a fantastic job Angela does with all the very elderly and mainly sighthounds in her care. Most of her “family” have never seen decent food or lodgings their entire lives before being homed with Angela. Because it is highly likely they received little or no veterinary care in their sad, neglected lives, Tailends sets about seeking appropriate medical attention for them and gently nurtures the dogs back to health and makes their last few months or years the happiest and most comfortable they have ever known. Please help us to provide Tailends with a worthwhile grant to ensure the beautiful hounds there continue to get all their essential veterinary care, food and creature comforts denied to them for so many years. How you can help What we need is items to auction. Anything that is in good condition will help. Anything you can donate, how ever big small or in between, will be gratefully accepted as long as it is in a good condition. Please send details of anything you can give, preferably with a photo, to me at [email protected] and please state if you need postage refunded. Please contact shops (both on and offline)you use and ask if they might kindly donate to this worthwhile cause. Let’s make this Christmas the best Tailends dogs have ever had.

greyhoundgirl Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 SWT auction now open... Sighthound Welfare Trust's Winter Auction is now open. You can visit the auction here; http://www.sighthoundwelfaretrust.org.uk/forums/index.php?showforum=38 As there are over 280 items we decided to extend the auction and decided to open early in order to minimise overlap with Greyhound Gap's online auction and to ensure the finale remained on the special 26th November, when we will be celebrating the 4th anniversary of the online forums! A big thank you to all who have donated items to the auction. Let's make sure we can give a great Christmas present to the hounds at Tailends. The auction will finish as planned at 9pm on Thursday 26th November. We look forward to seeing you at the auction!
