Show Notes

In a groundbreaking stride towards enhanced welfare for both retired racing greyhounds and former U.S. law enforcement officers, a unique partnership has been established. Forged by Greyhounds Australasia (GA) and Greyhound Racing New South Wales (GRNSW) in tandem with the National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the agreement promises to carve out a new life for these retired Australian racing dogs as therapeutic companions for first responders in the United States.

On this episode of the Blue View Podcast, National President Patrick Yoes sits down with Rob Vellar, Chairman of GA, and Robert Macaulay, CEO GRNSW, to discuss how this innovative initiative will establish a supply channel, dedicated to transporting these greyhounds from Australia to the U.S., ensuring their smooth transition to their new homes of FOP members in the United States.
