Sad news about the oldie in Valencia perrera
Dreadful news. Bev went to Valencia perrera for the oldie today – the perrera vet saw her yesterday, yet said nothing. As soon as Bev saw the oldie, she could tell she was dying…even the perrera staff agreed …the oldie died with Bev. Bastard galguero, using and abusing a sweet soul for 11 years, and not having the decency to pts her kindly and end her suffering!

Portuguese podenca Esperanca – update
UPDATE 08/05/13: Esperança has very sore teats as she still has mastitis and the antibiotics she is being given are only weak because of the puppies, but she has no fever and feels much happier, she waggs a lot. She won’t let her puppies suckle much because of the pain, so they are being artificially bottle-fed, thanks to Alison Blair who kindly sent more puppy milk. Esperança would like to thank again her sponsors for all the help they sent, thanks to them her vet bills have been paid on time. Thank you”

Valencia perrera – new podencos in – podencos still there – podencos saved
I’m pleased to report that the ‘oldie’ podenca in Valencia perrera has been reserved hopefully, although she has a chip and that has to be dealt with. There are still podencos in Valencia perrera, including the lovely black bitch, two more podenca andaluz male and female, a small 7yr old female Karina and a new black and white one described as ‘young, very good and kind, very good-natured, very noble. Apparently he does not want to hunt. Prefers to cuddle ….’

Pod and Co, Belgium – galga and podenca puppies need help
Here you will see photos of two puppies which were found abandoned in Spain, two females about 4 1/2 months old, a galga and a podenca. The were in a difficult area near to a road. apparently there were three puppies but one has disappeared, perhaps injured by a car because the podenca puppy has a rear hind foot which seems to be broken, she doesn’t use it. The galga puppy is ok.
They are thin and dehydrated. They need to be deparasited because they have a lot of fleas and ticks, they are now in a refuge and will be taken to our vet.
We need to find a foster family and adoptants.

Podencos Jazzy and Mocha – run free
Enjoy this video of Mocha and Jazzy, two of Bev Farmer’s podencos running free on a beach in Murcia. Bev has marvellous training skills, her foster podencos are probably some of the best trained rescued podencos you will come across. I so wish we could let our galgos and podenco run free like this. But we have 40 acres of grass meadows with rabbits, hares, deer, wild boar, buzzards, herons…we dare not for one minute let them run free. Sit back and enjoy two rescued podencos enjoying life to the full. To contact Bev and her foster dogs, email her.

Valencia perrera – podenca on death row because she’s too old to hunt
Valencia perrera, on death row. CESE (relinquished by owner), 11 years old Podenca, born in 2002, dumped by a hunter because she gets tired when hunting, she would not go in the cage without him leading her in. She is in complete shock, does not even know what a blanket is when one was given. Very sweet. Costs involved to save her.

Your support is urgently needed, please sign this petition to protest about the farmers in Motril shooting podencos.
Here is the story about this poor podenca. She didn’t survive – somewhere in the area there is another one, shot and injured.
This is a translation of the story as posted by a lady who tried to help save the podenca. This happened In Motril in Southern Spain a podenco wandered in to a finca looking for food Her punishment, she was shot in the head, leg and chest and lost her life. I found this soul destroying.
