Lily has been found, 10 days after going missing. It took the dog wardens one hour to catch her!
Lily is now safe in the loving hands of the WGW kennels staff in Hersham.
Staff and volunteers put in a huge amount of time and effort into finding Lily. Posters were put up in area where she was spotted, local dog walkers were approached and asked to look out for her. Many walked the streets and green spaces to look for her.
Staff manned the kennel phones round the clock in case that important call came through, hoping that someone could get close enough to timid Lily and read her Hersham Hounds dog tag.
Thank you to all who responded to the 'Lost Hounds' post on the Greyhound Gap forum.

Lost Hound
Lily, one of the homeless hounds has been lost in the Croydon area.
Lilly is a young and very timid greyhound. She was lost late on Monday 11th August whilst out for her last walk.
She is mainly white with black markings.
Lily has been sighted on Saturday16 August between 10.45am & 11am running through Selsdon High Street, and she was running towards Gravel Hill and New Addington.
Her lead is still attached. Please look out for her, she must be very hungry and tired now.
We are desperate to find her, especially as she was in an area unfamiliar to her, and a long way from the kennels in Hersham Surrey.

for a photo and description of Lily.
Please ring the Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare kennels at Hersham on this number if you see her: 01932 224918

New greyhound social group for London area
A new group has been set up to organise social walks for greyhound and lurcher owners in the South London/Kent area.
The group are called London and Borders Greyhounds. Their next two walks are in Sidcup (Aug 23) and Crayford (Aug 31). You can get more details of these walks and their other events from this calendar.
The group have exciting plans including a camping trip to the South Downs in June 2009.
Their first walk in July this year was attended by greyhounds re-homed from many of the the South East's re-homing kennels, including Hersham, Brighton & Hove, Clarks Farm and Romford. And the dogs even got liver treats at the end of the walk!
