E-Collars and Podencos: Why We Must Push for the UK Ban
From a post by Bev Farmer of Podenco FriendsThe Use of E-Collars on Podencos: what are your thoughts about using them?
On the attached photo a question was put to a advocate of e-collars .. Why would you use E.Collar on a podenco that has been abused ? The answer was extremely disturbing. Please read the reply on the photo.
The Reality of Rescue: Healing the Broken
Every Podenco that enters rescue has a story—often one of neglect, fear, and survival. We spend months rehabilitating them, earning their trust, and helping them recover both physically and emotionally. These dogs, already so fragile, should never be subjected to training methods that rely on pain and fear.

Podenco badly injured caught in an illegal snare!
The Gift of Kings: Delivered from a Slow and Sure Death. This is how this podenca was rescued, with an anchored strain, illegal and quite dangerous, it destroyed its leg.She’s been every Christmas a slave to human evil,….. her malnutrition and the state of the cachexic reflects it.
Let’s call her LUZ (LIGHT), because we need a ray of Light in the face of so much evil, passivity and indifference.From Huella de Jaén we’re going to help her, WE THANK the State Security Forces for the intervention and that there is JUSTICE.
We continue with her cures to save her leg. Let’s hope for Justice, to finally end those illegal practices that still exist, leaving many mutilations to innocent beings.

The hardest part of having a dog
This week I had a message from a lovely lady whose Mum adopted a little podenco X from me 13 years ago. Bobby was much loved by Jane, her daughter and sisters Claire and Deborah. It’s thanks to them that Bobby had such a wonderful last few years, they made a lot of sacrifices to take him on after Jane, and they gave him the absolute best. After a wonderful life in a loving home he developed cancer and has sadly crossed the rainbow bridge. RIP Bobby.R.M. Drake from the book ‘ Dog People’
“What’s the hardest part about having a dog?” they asked, their tone casual, like it was just another question.
The hardest part about loving a dog is knowing that one day, you’ll have to say goodbye. From the moment they come into your life, you know their time is limited, but you push that thought away, pretending the day will never come. You invest your heart in them, share the quiet mornings, the playful afternoons, the long walks that seem endless. They become more than just a part of your life—they become a part of you.

Heartbreaking, this young dog young woman found in the port of Mazagon (Huelva) with her paws full of cuts, we have cured her and are giving her care. But we live on a boat in which the dog can’t be. The dog is under the boat, it is not inside, it is not picked up!! is in the street.We ask for help from any protector or person who can take her in.
The police have been called and checked for a chip and it doesn’t have one.
If you can’t take care of her, or foster her please spread, soon the boat leaves and none of the people who feed her are from here, live on the boat and there can’t have any animals and less travel with them..
It’s very urgent to disseminate.
