Spanish hunting – what really goes on behind the scenes!
A story that had to be told“You won’t be left out! The story of how we infiltrated the world of hunting,” by Francisco Hughes, is a book that brings us closer to a reality that has remained hidden for too long. A small group of anti-hunting activists infiltrated the world of hunting to document what happens behind closed doors of this practice. From that research emerged works such as “This is how hunting dogs live in Spain” (2022) and “Monterías. Hunting with dogs exposed” (2023).Now, all that experience is gathered in this book: 296 pages to know from within a reality that those of us who defend animals have been denouncing for years.

The book costs 10 € and can also be downloaded for free in PDF and EPUB. 
From Plataforma NAC we believe that investigating, documenting, and making visible what happens in the world of hunting is also part of the fight to put an end to it.Because what remains hidden can also be questioned when it comes to light.We encourage you to get to know this work and read the book.Book: ¡No vas a quedar ni uno! -

Azores dog rescue – Podenco Reuben needs a forever home
This is Reuben. He turned up in the kennel yard late one night, very thin but also very happy to have found me. He had some issues with smaller dogs initially but he learned quickly to get on with them. (He was definitely a working hunter before)Reuben loves people! His tail wags and he smiles.After I was rushed to hospital, other rescues stepped in to take responsibility for the vast majority of my rescue dogs. But Reuben has been in a vet clinic since March, he’s still registered as an ADR dog and the bill now stands at just over 600€. I only just found out that he’s still an ADR dog after giving away my last donation last week to another rescuer because I didn’t need it.Reuben is available for adoption. He’s 6 years old and weighs around 18kg, he can’t be with cats and maybe not small dogs but he gets on well with other dogs his size (Willow’s pups used to sleep in his bed) and he’s great with children too.If you would like to help pay his clinic boarding costs (before he’s kicked out) you can make a donation through PayPal to azoresdogrescue@yahoo.com or by bank transfer toAzores Dog rescueIBAN PT50 0059 0011 2304 8800 01616If you are interested in adopting this sweet Podengo, please send a message. My heart breaks for him – stuck in a vet kennel for so many months on his own. I’m in the process of moving so I can’t take him.
