Hi Readers, the GAP team have been flat out for the past ten days at the RNA Brisbane show (known locally as the "ekka"). We were in our usual location in the dog pavilion and have had so many pats and cuddles that we may have lost some fur.
We found homes for six greys during the show and support for GAP has surged over the last six weeks with heaps of trainers calling us to put their hounds on the program, foster carers calling to offer their help and our wonderful volunteers are happier than ever.
I hope you enjoy the pics -
The lounge looked terrific this year. 
We had heaps of school children visit us for cuddles.

Well, that's it from me Readers. The GAP staff are having a few days off before we get back into the job of placing hounds with families. I'll be dreaming about the ekka for a long time to come. Bye for now - Murphy.
