Our Spanish friends are angry! They have organised a huge protest in Madrid on 21st September. They want a national law to protect animals in Spain.
They want severe penalties for people found guilty of maltreating animals. They want a ban on financial aid from the State for spectacles and events involving the maltreatment of animals, such as bull fights and greyhound racing.

Dedicated to the welfare of the Spanish Galgo and Sighthounds worldwide.
Galgo Rescue International Network (GRIN) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal welfare organization run entirely by volunteers that was founded to establish a relationship between the animal shelters in Spain and animal lovers in the United States and around the world. Our love of Greyhounds and concern for their plight drew us to their cousins — the galgos.
Working closely with Spanish shelters, GRIN raises awareness of the Spanish Greyhound's plight through international educational campaigns and fundraising. We also aid shelters and assist with adoptions for rehomed sighthounds in the U.S. with the primary goals being to provide practical help and supplies to the Spanish shelters and to inspire change in the treatment of the Galgo Espnaõl and the Podenco through public informational and educational campaigns.
