The three greyhounds arrived today in Malpensa airport, after a tiring flight and an almost three hours delay due to the bad weather, are called <strong>King, Prince, and Phoebe<\/strong>. The arrival of the greyhounds was possible thank to <strong>Pet Levrieri Onlus<\/strong>, an association which focuses on giving up for adoption, greyhounds, lurchers, and galgos, that have been rescued from racing exploitation and hunting in countries such as Ireland and Spain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPet Levrieri,\u201d explain the activists ,\u201dcollaborates with all the associations which, at a national and international level, work together to put a stop to dog racing for profit and to hunting with greyhounds, to create <strong>a movement of civil disapproval and to obtain laws<\/strong> that protect and identify <strong>the greyhounds as pets<\/strong> in the countries from where they came from.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPet Levrieri is, in addition, together with the English charity Candy Cane Rescue both in the fight against Irish greyhounds exportation from Europe to South-east Asia and in terms of information and awareness and civil and political initiatives, as well as of the collaboration with the Chinese local activism against greyhound exploitation, also finding home to other Chinese greyhounds rescued.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>King and Prince were rescued by Chinese activists while, on a truck full of other dogs and in extremely precarious conditions, were being brought to slaughter.
