    I have always loved this band. But to see these peope so involved in such an important and loving cause is a gift from God. I have a grey that I adopted in California. He really is the perfect pet! Keep fighting the good fight and God bless you for all your efforts. Best!

  4. Thank you to Trudy for sending me the link, this is absolutely FANTASTIC!! Love the band and this video is very special, the greyhounds are so beautiful, very emotional to watch in a good way, brilliant, added to faves :)

    I am thinking of adopting a Greyhound and seeing this video brought a tear to my eyes. I don’t know why but it did. I really want one now. Thank you for sharing. :*)

    What a brilliant gesture by Crowded house.

  8. Man that is really cool!

    WOW, cool to see that. We were part of the first try of this over here in Auckland at the Vector arena. Our greyhound Ronin, along with about 9 others from NZ GAP(greyhounds as pets) were approached by crowded house to do the same thing at their 28th October show. I hope you all had as much fun as we did, and were looked after just as well. looks like a great time was had by all!

    What a great video

  12. krissynurse says:

    This is so awesome!! What a wonderful cause. So great that CH is backing greyhound adoption! They are such wonderful guys. I’ve been a fan for over 20 years, and I love ‘em more every time I see them!

  13. Coowallsky says:

    Everywhere you go, always take your Greyhound with you, everywhere you go…

    This is a wonderful great idea!!! Thank you to Crowded House all all people involved in this action! Huge amounts of Greys, Galgos, Podencos, Whippets, etc. are suffering from bad fortune and need our help! I wish that more popular people would use their reputation to make the world aware!

    I have also been adopted by a female greyhound in Spain. She is really The Perfect Pet. Thanks to Crowded House. I loved them so many years ago and now much more. Greyhounds are really special.

  16. londondublin says:

    Los animales son esos maravillosos seres que dan amor incondicional y no como las personas que es egoista.

  17. That was really lovely to see:) Great that they use their status as a rockin’ band to promote awareness for such awesome pets!!!

  18. I think it is fantastic having the greyhound awareness event at the crowed house concert. I absuloutly love them, I have one of my our which I adopted from The Greyhound Adoption Program of Victoria. The are such wonderful placid creatures that just a need a nice home to retier in after their racing career.
    Great Video. :)

  19. As is obvious by my user name, I am one possessed by greyhounds (only have five, tho). I think it was wonderful that the band sponsered a greyhound awareness spot. I can homestly say that until you are “adopted” by a greyhound, you can’t enjoy life as much as one with a greyhound!
    Thank you, thank you, thank you for having that greyhound adoption awareness event at your concert!

    Els animals treuen el millor de les BONES PERSONES.
    Veure aquest Video i veure rient a les persones que envolten als galgos es una gran satisfaccio i plaer per mi i per qui li agraden els animals

  23. TTVIDS says:

    Thanks for correcting me John, I remember now about it being the burying and not the killing of the dogs that was illegal. Madness.

  24. johnhareuk says:

    Alas, this odious specimen wasn’t jailed – he got fined a couple of thousand pounds, not for killing thousands of healthy young greyhounds (which, believe it or not is perfectly legal in the UK)but for burying them in his back yard (now, that is illegal!).

    Thank you, ashzcomau, for posting this – it’s brilliant!
