"The Great Mullet Cut" for The Centre for Cerebral Palsy

After 35 years under the mullet, a new look Tony Glenny emerged from the barber's chair at Cannington on Saturday August 2.

Peter Hepple, representing WAGBOTA, had the honour of the first chop before Deputy Chairman Ray Whitby (who looked way too keen to remove Tony's locks), wife Kathie and several others had a turn.

The aim was to raise money for The Centre for Cerebral Palsy, in particular youngsters Nathan (17) and Brittony (8).

The target of $7000 was met and a very excited Nathan received his very own Meywalker Walking Frame on the night.



Well done to the local greyhound community who can once again be very proud of their fundraising efforts.

Lewie has also been busy visiting schools. He is seen above at St Peters Bedford with some budding young trainers.

Alley Oop



Sports fans and critics alike agree that this son of Western Front has 'got game'. Just like his famous mum Alley Oop has been racking up points for a good cause, in this case Princess Maragret Children's Hospital. He's also the unofficial 'sixth man' for the Perth Wildcats. Under the guidence of new trainer Peter Hepple expect this rookie to reach new heights.


Puppy Club Magic

Glen Abby Ben



This Victorian import has been a valuable addition to the Puppy Club roster. What he lacks in early speed he makes up for in race smarts and like his kennelmate Puppy Club Magic he runs on behalf of the Juvenile Diabetes Unit at PMH.

PAST (1999 onwards)

Western Front



She wasn't the first but she is figuratively, and in one case literally, the mother of all promo dogs.  Under the guidence of Lisa and Nick Minutillo 'The Might Mae' became a darling of the media, mainly through her association with the Channel Ten network. She brought attention to and raised funds for The Centre for Cerebral Palsy and the Breast Cancer Foundation.

April Fool

The original Puppy Club greyhound was no fool and became the club's no. 1 ticket holder after retirement.

Rose Monelli
