Helping Galgos

Boosted by the strong community spirit of Whippety friends, Whippety will donate a percentage of profit to support the rescue, care and rehoming of persecuted Spanish galgos, who are unscrupulously used for hunting then cruelly discarded in rural areas. We want to help make a difference to the lives of our Whippety cousins.

Why Galgos?

Galgos are very similar in look and sweet personality to whippets. Although galgos live overseas, Whippety can support local Spanish organisations who rescue them from harsh rearing conditions and treatment meted out by many hunter-handlers 'galgueros' in their home country.
