GALTx eNews: Kristina Is Running For The Hounds!

Kristina dreamed of adopting a Greyhound for years. Last summer, she and her partner, Doug, finally agreed the time was right. They submitted their application to the local adoption group, GALT New Mexico. Their family already included a rescue dog, Grete, and a rescue cat, Tommy, so they prepared for a long wait for a cat safe hound to come their way. 

To help pass the time, Kristina decided to help the hounds by running a marathon as a fundraiser for GALT. She has been training hard and will run in the Eugene marathon on Sunday, April 28, 2024. She has run several shorter races, but this will only be her fifth marathon! Kristina says she isn’t all that fast at 62 years young, but she still loves running! It’s a shared love in the family, and Doug will join her for the half marathon. 

Meanwhile, long-time Greyhound adoption volunteers in Arizona came together to launch GALT Arizona. As luck would have it, one of the group’s first deliveries from Australia included a cat safe hound, Oisin. Oisin wasn’t originally scheduled to make the flight from Australia at all. He was a last minute substitute for another hound. But that little bit of luck was all he needed. GALT Arizona and GALT New Mexico worked together to bring Oisin to his new family. Kristina and Doug picked him up on March 30th! 

Oisin will now be known as Pre, named after legendary American runner Steve Prefontaine. Pre is adjusting well to his new home and is already much loved. Please help us cheer Kristina on as she races to help the hounds and help us welcome Pre to his new forever home with a gift to Kristina’s Facebook fundraiser. If you prefer not to give on Facebook, you can give on our website. Just mention it is in support of Kristina’s marathon in your comments. Thanks to Kristina and all who give!

If someone tells you that he didn’t like Jared Leto, show me please that person, ok?! Cause I don’t belive in unicorns or smth like ‘a man who dislikes Leto’, you know. I mean, just look at this guy! Sometimes I feel my eyes bleed from his unhuman beauty! And when I visit ‘30STM’ concerts I feel myself absolutely unreal ! The most unreal thing: today is already his 46 birthday. Ha-ha, don’t listen me I’m joking! What kind of idiot would believe this bullshit?! Nobody! ‘Mr. Nobody’ as Dorian, but he will be eternal ! *crazy Joker’s laugh*
