A WARRINGTON based cleaning firm has come to the rescue of homeless greyhound Kizzy.
Paul Clarke, owner of Ovenu, and his family have now taken Kizzy in from a Manchester dogs’ home.
Kizzy’s racing career was cut short by a muscle injury and she only managed to take part in 11 races before retirement.
As a result, Paul has agreed to donate £2 from every oven cleaned to the Retired Greyhound Trust.
He said: “It is important for us to put something back out into the community, and my wife and I have always had an interest and passion to help and re-home greyhounds. Kizzy is a lovely addition to our family home and the children love having her around.”
The Retired Greyhound Trust (RGT) is a national charity dedicated to finding homes for greyhounds at the end of their racing careers.
It was set up in 1975 and since then has re-homed almost 40,000 greyhounds.
