Valencia Podenco Andaluz puppy, rescued injured & starving – can you take him into your heart and home?

Valencia_podenca_1_250__17_1_2012Look at this cute little podenco, less than a year old, found wandering through a ravine with a broken tail and a femur fracture of a hind leg. The leg hung loose, like a rag doll’s leg. He was a skeleton, totally malnourished, with a sore eye and bore injuries on his nose and neck. He’s been called Aradio by his saviours.

The vet says Aradio has wandered for weeks with his leg dangling, possibly hit by a car. Understandably he was very scared of being caught but couldn’t run far with his injured leg.

Aradio has now had an operation on his leg, and been castrated. He is very good, very quiet and very obedient. His savious says ‘unfortunately we cannot keep him, we have 12 dogs and 8 cats at home (all were abandoned and are paid for by us), but we are only 2 people and we cannot take on responsibility for more lives. We have no means, neither economic nor more help, nor even space.

Aradio needs a foster home and adoption! He is in Valencia at the moment.

    I have emailed about this dear boy but not heard back yet. I am in the UK and am interested in him. Would this be possible to organise?

    It is possible Lisa – lots of dogs come over to UK from Spain each month or so. If you email Beryl on the email address at the top of Podenco Post page, she will be able to advise you and put you in touch with someone to translate if needs be. I really hope you manage this as he is such a beautiful puppy and it will be well worth doing. Good luck.
