More pix of the Manifestation in Strasbourg. I'm told there weren't many French associations there - which is very bad - and fewer people. Having said that, the Spanish associations would not be there because they were marching in Madrid and Barcelona on Sunday.

Polar's Diary - arriving in France

Thank you to Europet who brought Polar to France. Ian and Sheila are really lovely caring people and their air conditioned transport is superb. Polar set off on Wednesday morning on his long journey from Pepis Refuge, Pedrera, across Spain.Here he is on a coffee break in Seville!

We met up with Europet at midday 7th June - I couldn't believe how small he was! Such an adorable puppy. The Europet transport was full of rescue dogs from Portugal travelling to Germany to forever homes - Frankfurt and Berlin were their final destinations. We chatted about the terrible situation at Rogil for over 40 hunting dogs.
