  • News from Protectora Scooby Medina del Campo

    Scooby appeal for donations 3 2020 400
    Last year, Scooby rescued 579 dogs and homed 158 here in Spain and 296 overseas: Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Holland, Italy, Slovenia, Switzerland, United Kingdom and USA. Scooby saved 77 cats and homed 65. So far this year we have saved 204 dogs and cats and we’ve homed 199 of them. These are high numbers for our small team of about 10 staff. We are blessed with some dedicated volunteers, for which we are very grateful.

    All of our work carries a lot of administration, not only Scooby’s own activities but also the liaison with our partners and the vast array of government paperwork we need to complete to make our international adoptions happen. In the last newsletter
    we told you about our computers cracking under the strain and our administrator burning the midnight oil as a result. Thanks to your generosity, our supporters rose to the occasion and we were able to buy new Samsung Galaxy computers for the Scooby office and they have made such a difference to our efficiency. Thank you all very much.

  • I-CAD, Europenet.com, Checkachip.com – microchipping is compulsory for dogs, cats, horses and ferret

    Petlog_logo_350
    A new programme on UK TV is called ‘Lost Dogs Live’ which is about getting the watching public involved in tracing lost dogs. One of the startling pieces of information to come out of the programme was that in the UK there are 15 registered microchip companies. Besides the importance of microchipping your dog, it is also vitally important that up-to-date information is registered with the microchip company about the address at which your dog/cat lives.

    It is commonplace to assume that once you register with a veterinary clinic and they record your pet’s microchip, if the animal goes missing they will be able to trace if it turns up elsewhere, especially if it is suspected stolen.

    Not the case!

    I think Phantom would be a more appropriate name.

    Stacey is a small podenco. These small podencos have huge characters as my little Bebe did, keeping all the galgos in line!

    And this is Charlie, a larger podenco also at the shelter. He’s a stunner and been waiting far too long for someone to offer him a forever home. Read all about him on this webink.
