  • Bullas boys searching for forever homes – contact Ibizan Hound Rescue

    Bullas Desperate Dan 250 7 2012I recently posted an appeal for homes for some podenco puppies whose Mom was one of the podencas rescued from Bullas, Murcia, in Operation Rehala. 4 of the pups are still waiting for their forever homes. They are in foster in Spain and will be ready to travel to the UK at the end of July. They will be stunning Ibizan Hounds and, as mentioned before, the breed can make superb agility dogs – they often compete in agility in Germany. If you can offer one of these gorgeous boys a home, please contact Valerie of Ibizan Hound Rescue.

  • Podenco Puppy in Seville urgently needs his forever family

    GIORGINO 1 248 7 2012Yet another little podenco puppy rescued from the streets of Seville. He urgently needs a foster or adoption home. Here’s his story.

    GIORGINO. PUPPY HOUND 2 MONTHS. HE WAS BORN ON THE STREET IN A SEVILLE VILLAGE

    This puppy appeared in the streets of my town completely covered with parasites, and malnourished, with a tremendous thirst. We took and gave him a drink immediately, he was exhausted. When he recovered, he ate a little, and shortly thereafter we bathed him with insecticide so that the ticks and fleas were killed. We also feared he had massive infestations, so we wormed him and worms of all kinds were evacuated.

    He was suffering from malnutrition, but now he has already been two weeks with me and is recovered, although you can still see his ribs. He is super good and very healthy but I have no where to have more dogs. This case is very urgent. He needs to be in a home, as if he had remained on the street, he would already be dead in the heat of Seville.

  • Tripod Podenca Ana – racing on the beach – anyone help her pup chloe?

    Ana sofa 250 5 2012Remember Ana, rescued in Ana, Spain, in November 2012. Here’s a wonderful video showing that a tripo does not need to be handicapped by a leg missing!

    Amazing Ana. http://youtu.be/WU_LK9VrHbs Enjoy a tripod tearing around on the sands of the beach… Amazing Ana!

    Some time back Ana came to us from Valencia, another down and out podenca tossed out, no longer needed. No long er required and so, left to her devices she roamed the lands. She fed herself and did the best she could. At some point either before tossed out, or after, she succumbed to a terrible break in a hind leg, an infected bone which reinfected, and reinfected.
