10-07-2009 - Uri Geller shows support for Pound for a Hound

Uri we cannot thank you enough for the time and support you have shown to Greyhound Gap, its dogs and our appeal.....

Uri Geller, owned by Barney, an ex racing greyhound gives his backing to Greyhound Gap.
Uri understands the importance of finding a safe haven and a place for the dogs to find sanctuary until such a time as they can be rehomed.
Greyhound Gap deals with mainly death row greyhounds and lurchers from council stray holding facilities and prides itself in working with some very difficult rehabilitation cases. A property for them would mean much better scope and more dogs able to depend on their safety net. Greyhounds make wonderful pets.

Uri not only took the time to speak with us via the telephone but in person today by inviting a volunteer to his home to collect a very generous donation of four boxed sets of crystal from the Uri Geller Crystal collection.

The kindness of strangers never ceases to amaze me but the kindness of a well known stranger who must be a very busy man on such a personal level has left me astounded & once again truly humbled.

Uri also mentioned that on ITV on 26th July he has a tribute to Michael Jackson show going out and Barney the greyhound may be making an appearance so dont forget to tune in!
