Will be nice to meet you too  I've look at the trains, and I'm lucky because there are some direct ones to b'ham international from wolverhampton. I can get there 8.50 or 9.15...which do you think is better? |

good luck everyone who is going  ps stash bottles of water and choccie biccies in your bag - the queues for food and drinks can be bad ......... and the queues for the loos  dogs are fine - you can go out of the fire escapes to the grass and there are sawdust dog areas indoors for poop/pee stops - its just the poor humans that have to hold it  .... and deffo leave your visa at home  |

Following unreasonable actions by one of the Dicksons employees, Greyhound Walks have withdrawn our support and left Crufts during the afternoon of Thursday 10th March. This decision was made by Greyhound Walks.
The matter has been passed up to our Trustees for due consideration.
Greyhound Walks will not tolerate it's members being upset or treated in any way other than with the respect they deserve.
A full statement will be made by Greyhound Walks in due course.

Two photos I took at Crufts – well before the afternoons’ “main event”. The photos were taken for no reason other than a record of Greyhound Walks events. I can’t see anything wrong with the way we’ve either positioned ourselves, or presented ourselves. Can you ? The images weren't staged, and are representative of the where we stood throughout the day.   |

Posted on behalf of the Greyhound Walks Trustees
We have an emergency meeting of the trustees tomorrow to discuss what course of action we wish to take following the decision for us to withdraw from Crufts because of the way our charity, and more especially our volunteers, were being treated.
We appreciate that everyone is upset by what has happened and would like to vent their feelings, however so as not to prejudice our position we have locked this thread.
We will of course update the thread once the matter has been settled between ourselves and Dicksons.
Thank you for your understanding.
Janet - Chair/Trustee/Founder
