Young podenca, extremely shy, shows panic in her eyes, about eighteen months old.
Two tall Podencos. Black and white is male, less than 18 months old, loving and handsome. Red and white is female, also about year and a half, very loving also. It shows that they have lived together, they play with each other as if they’ve known each other for a long time.

Urgent: Sweet William needs a foster or forever home. Can you help???
Call Diane 664 585 275
This stunning boy (see pix below)is a malnourished stray in Solano. Between 1 and 2 years old. We are desperate to get him a foster home to give us the time to find him a forever home. Believed to have been dumped when his owners moved away. He will be vaccinated and neutered soon.
This is an amazing looking dog, he is very friendly and obviously used to being a pet. Still very skinny, he is doing well and the vet says he will make a full recovery. He adores people and is great with other dogs. He is very gentle and sweet and just wants someone of his very own to love.
Regular readers will know the name Bev Farmer, who is a podenco passionata in Murcia and works tirelessly to help abandoned podencos on the route to a forever life. She also takes some stunning photos, I’m hoping she will have time to put together a podenco calendar for next year.
This is her story about Malaika, a young podenca bitch loose on a golf course.
‘There is something so special about Malaika, and the second I saw her I felt a very strong connection and had no intention of leaving her on that Golf course no matter what it took to catch her. Now she is with us and where will remain with us for ever.
Mike, who is a steward on the golf course, tried for months to get help for her and he never gave up. The day we caught her, Mike wiped a few tears away. Hannah, his wife, named her Malaika, which is Swalili for Angel and a perfect name
I received an appeal from Dominique to save yet two more podencos in Valencia perrera. They were taken in a few days ago by their owners on CESE – which is ‘fast track to killing’! Before I had time to publish them, one had already been killed!
Here is a photo of the second one, very close to whelping.

I am sickened and cannot imagine the mindset of the bastard who took this little bitch in to be killed – with a belly full of puppies! Do they kill her before she has the puppies or after?!! Makes you wonder.
For those of you who followed the story of podenco Zorro, he is now safe with Bev Farmer.
I’m still stuck in the UK because of snow, and struggling to post. Here’s a story I received earlier this week, emailed on to associations I hope can help, and now post you the story. Apologies though, as I’m using a computer which won’t allow me to post pix.
‘On January 6, 2013 I drove with my husband and adopted dog (from a perrera near Malaga, ‘El Paraiso’) from Tarifa to Seville, and on to Cordoba.
We stopped at a rural restaurant for coffee where I became aware of a whole lot of dogs crying somewhere in the vicinity.
for the lack of news at the moment. I am in the UK arranging palliative care for my mother in law, have restricted access to a computer and the Internet, and no facility for uploading photos. I am due to return to my home in France on 19/20 January – so long as the snow here in the UK has thawed and disappeared!
