SEVERE HOT WEATHER WARNING!
Now that we are at that time of year where the weather can suddenly have a rush of excessively hot days. It is important you check the weather forecast the night before you plan to come to the kennels to walk the hounds. If you see the weather is going to be more than 23C, during 11am-1pm, then please do NOT come at the normal time.
We will therefore be open between 8 am and 9 am only in those extreme temperatures.

About WGW
Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare (WGW) aims to promote careful and responsible rehoming of greyhounds and other sighthounds
We provide ongoing support to our adopters, including facilities to care for their greyhounds or other sighthounds on a temporary basis after rehoming and, should the need arise, on a longer-term basis until such time as the greyhound or other sighthound is found a suitable home.
And we look to educate the general public on the plight of greyhounds and other sighthounds, and to promote them as suitable pets.
