  • Podenco Campanero looking for her forever home

    NAC Campanearo 1 5 2025 350
    Introducing LENA. She’s a 3 year old Campanero, beautiful as you can see. She arrived in the Cuenca Hostel with her brother Ascua. They came from a place where they were in bad conditions.

    Lena is shy with humans, she barely lets you touch or put on a leash. Even if they manipulate her to vaccinate or examine her she doesn’t bite. She always goes with Ascua, her brother. They both have a really fun spot together and it’s a sight to watch them run.

    Leña needs a lot of patience from her adopter so that she can trust. It would be wonderful if she could take that path, reduce her fear of humans and finally live in a home she has never known. Best of luck beautiful girl!

  • Podencos – don’t breed – adopt from a rehoming association!

    My main pet hates are dog breeders, cat breeders and horse breeders. The world is overflowing with unwanted dogs, cats and horses (the latter shipped in horrendous conditions to Europe for meat). I came across a facebook post of podencos being taken to Poland for rehoming, so researching – without luck – any rehoming associations in that country, I came across this post. Podenco breeders in Poland. Grrrr!!

  • Adoptions fall in worrying trend – high vet fees are a big cause

    From Plataforma NAC

    ADOPTIONS FALL IN WORRIING WAY

    Dog adoptions are alarmingly falling despite the tireless work done by shelters and volunteer associations.
    There are more and more animals waiting patiently to find a forever home. Many of them have not had it easy and even suffered mistreatment.

    Introducing Aston, a young galgo who was abandoned and who, after spending several days on the street, was rescued. Now, he’s looking for a family that will love him and give him a new chance.

    From AA Dog Rescue

    Introducing Blanqui

    Blanqui is looking for a very special home. This brave little girl has been through so much. While trying to protect her newborn babies, Blanqui was savagely attacked by another dog. The injuries were so severe that she had to have one of her legs amputated.
    But despite everything she’s endured, Blanqui remains a sweet, gentle soul.

    She’s 9 years old, sterilised, vaccinated, and blood tested. She’s great with other dogs, doesn’t react to cats, and is fine with children.

  • Podenco Campanero Oddie – a very special tripod hoping for a forever home

    Oddie 1 350
    Tripod dogs are amazing, Having 3 legs doesn’t have to be a handicap.

    Introducing tripod Podenco Campanero ODDIE who was rescued almost 2 years ago by Happy Footprints Association with a shot in his elbow that left him totally devastated.. tried with medication to cure him, but there was no way, and there was a high risk of endangering his health, so there was no choice but to amputate his leg.

    He says ‘I don’t mind having 3 legs at all, because I live a totally normal life, but it seems… because of this no one wants to adopt me. I am a beautiful podenquito campanero, 7 years old, medium size, I am not very big, I am totally healthy and although at first I am a little scared of the unknown, as soon as I take confidence I am a charmer!! I just want to get the chance to know what it feels like to have a family to care for me and love me forever.’

    Reach out at asociacionhuellasfelices@gmail.com and they’ll tell you all you need to know about me. I’m in Peñarroya-Pueblonuevo (Cordoba) but I can travel to your home if you want to give me the family I need.

  • Podenca Candy hoping for a forever home

    Candy 1 4 2025 350
    Introducing Candy, a stunning freckled Podenca with Maz’s Canine Rescue.

    Hi there… I’m Candy. I’m a two-year-old Spanish Podenco with a heart full of hope and the softest little paws you ever did see. I live at MAZ’s Canine Rescue in Tijola, where I was rescued and given a second chance. Life here is safe and kind — I have doggy friends to play with, good food, and gentle people who care for me. But still… every night, I curl up and dream of a forever home.

    I’m a bit shy when we first meet — I like to take my time and figure out the world at my own pace. But once I feel safe, I’ll show you my playful side. I’m really good with other dogs (I love a good game of chase!), and I’m learning all about this walking-on-a-lead thing. It’s still a bit new to me, but I’m trying so hard and getting braver every day.

  • Grandpa Valentino – hoping to spend his late years in a loving forever home

    Valentin 4 2025 300
    Older dogs can be just as rewarding as younger ones. Especially suited to a home with older people who prefer gentle walks and companionship. Introducing Valentin, who fits the bill.

    La Sonrisa Peludo says – Grandpa VALENTINO (11 Years) “lived” all his life as a long sentence at the hands of a devil galgueroL….years of Lockdown…. He never had a caress, it takes patience to helpit.

    No one has shown any interest in him, is he to be sentenced to end his life in a cage? Is there no chance for him?

  • Blind Podenca Victoria seeks a special home

    Blind podenca 4 2025 350
    Victoria is blind. And she is in an asylum. A place full of noises she can’t place, smells that confuse her, stress from other dogs that she can’t avoid. For a dog that can’t see, life out there is downright scary.

    She has no panic, no trauma, no aggression — she is just gentle, sweet and affectionate. But she lacks what every animal needs: peace, safety, stability.

    Victoria is not a dog that you “just save”. She is not an impulse adoption. But if you have a warm heart, and feel that you can only give that little extra… then you get an incredibly sweet dog for that.

    Email me if you are interested and I will pass your name on to the contact.
