Greyhound Racing Victoria’s Red Dog Run campaign raised $1,500 for the 2016 Anzac Appeal yesterday which was the opening day of the week-long campaign.
Every time a greyhound wearing the red number one rug wins a race in Victoria between April 19-25, GRV is donating $250 to help current and former members of the Australian Defence Force.
Here were the Red Dog winners on opening day…

GRV regulates the sport of greyhound racing in the state of Victoria under the Racing Act 1958 (Act), which includes setting standards and ensuring they are met by participants.
Dustin Drew, one of the most successful young greyhound trainers in Victoria, says the entire town of Warrnambool is always abuzz at this time of year.
