AUDIO: Hutchy, Pickers & Doc cheering on the Red Dog in lead up to Anzac Day

AFL identity Craig Hutchison and his team at Crocmedia are glowing in their support of Greyhound Racing Victoria’s brand new ‘Red Dog Run’ campaign, which is running between 19-25 April.

Hutchison, Liam Pickering and Dr. Turf recently caught up with GRV’s Louise Martin on their ‘Off The Bench’ program to discuss this wonderful initiative.

“What greyhound racing has done very well historically is leverage (off) the fanaticism around the colours and the boxes. First it was breast cancer (McGrath Foundation) with the pink dog and prostate cancer (Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia) with the blue dog, and now ‘Red Dog Run’ is running for a whole week for the 2016 Anzac Appeal,” Hutchison said.

GRV is donating $250 to the 2016 Anzac Appeal every time a greyhound wearing the red number one rug wins a race in Victoria during the week leading into Anzac Day.
