Jerome Guillot is a friend from some years ago when we travelled as members of the L'Europe des Levriers team into Spain to bring back galgos and podencos to France for homing.
Jerome is the founder of the association CREL and was also one of the original organisers of the Strasboug march to publicise the plight of the galgos and podencos. Here's the latest news from him.
'I am jérôme guillot, founder of the CREL association for the protection of galgos and podencos in July 2009 and sponsored by MICHÈLE STRIFFLER MEP 2009-2014. At our last general assembly, all members voted for the CREL to become a federation .
It is now done, an avocate specializing in foundations has drafted the statutes of the Federation. The aim is to bring together all the European Greyhound/Galgo Protection Associations, initially, to put pressure on MEPs and governments. The Union will make strength, we must unite to fight against the abuse inflicted on greyhound and podencos in Spain, Ireland and elsewhere.
We invite associations to become members of the federation...Already 23 associations have joined - 17 French, 5 Spanish and 1 SLOVENIAN
