We created the hashtag #Grá4Greyhounds to help promote greyhounds as pets in Ireland.
Grá is the Irish word for love, signifying our appreciation and affection for this amazing breed of dog.

Free toy to the first 100 !!!!!!!!!!!
This bad ass ninja chew toy is made of strong, vanilla-scented rubber that holds up to tough love from heavy-duty chewing. Fill the toy with your greyhound’s favourite treats or kibble; as your dog plays, treats randomly pop out.
The plush-free dog toy means no more pieces of fabric or stuffing scattered across floors; the stimulating squeaker appeals to your dog’s natural prey drive
Easy to Clean - by putting it in the top rack of your dishwasher. The first 100 arriving to the event - gets a free toy to bring home.
