This is an appeal from Carolina Climent, in Badajoz, which is a very bad place for hunting dogs. Here’s her appeal.

‘I have at home a little family looking for good homes. All of them are looking for their families for ever. I rescued the Podenca Mom as she was abandoned in my village. Chiquita had just given birth under a rock, they are the mother and 4 pups, 3 males, 1 female.

Chiquita is a podenco and the pups mix of Breton and Podenco. The pups are 1 month and 14 days now and I need your help to spread the word to find them a place to be. I have been looking after them all this time and they are ready to go. I would travel a fair distance in order to introduce one of them to the adopter.

We are in Badajoz, in a village close to Mérida. Please do not hesitate to contact me for details. Thank you very much.’
