Dog Rescue is a Voluntary Irish Animal Charity run by Bernie Wright. It is
dedicated to rescuing and re-homing unwanted, abandoned Irish Greyhounds
and dogs. Every dog has a right to life and no healthy dog will ever be
destroyed while under 'Dog Rescue' care.
Dog Rescue plays a huge part in rescuing Irish greyhounds, both ex-racer
and other. These would otherwise be destroyed. These greyhounds are
re-homed throughout Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States as
domestic pets.
Greyhounds are seen as commercial animals rather than normal pets. The
fact is that they are normal dogs who need the same affection, love and
attention as any dog. Unfortunately these dogs rarely live past the age of
4 since after that they are no good for racing, they are then disposed of
by being sent to the pound or to a desperate life on the Spanish
racetracks where they meet a sad fate.Ask yourself have you ever seen an old greyhound? Where do they all end
up? Thousands of Greyhounds enter the Irish racing market yearly and when
they can no longer race through injury or age they disappear. Yet we still
continue to support this 'sport'.
Bernie Wright of Dog Rescue has been highly successful in finding homes
for ex-racer, abandoned and impounded greyhounds. Greyhounds have been
sent to the U.K and U.S.A where they are seen as domestic pets and are
greatly loved.
If you are interested in giving a greyhound a home then contact Dog
