You recently read the tale of Sonia, an aged Podenga Portuguese who has been adopted in France to join other fellow pensioners with Betty.
Look at this stunning boy! He is another Podengo Portuguese in the shelter in Aanifeira shelter in Portugal. Here is what Jackie, who works at the shelter, says.
‘Our shelter is located in the north of Portugal just 35 kms south of Porto and we have around 400 dogs in our care. We have a few podengos and in fact I thought I would attach a photo of one of ours called Alf.
This is Laila, an eleven year old podenca. She is now in the care of Silvia of Galgo Connection Spain. Here is what she says.
‘As you can see, Laila has a big tumour and has bred a lot of puppies. Her owner didn’t want to help the old girl and took her to the killing station. She was there about a month. I was waiting for someone to help her but finally, I thought, I have to do something and the best is to operate on her. So she is now booked in to the vet to have the tumour removed.
A story with a Happy Ending. This is Sonia, a Podenco Portuguese, who spent most of the 12 years of her life in a shelter in Portugal. Last month her dream of a forever home came true when she was adopted into a loving home to join 5 more podencos, plus other oldies!
She was adopted from the association Aanifeira. I’ve only just learnt about them from Betty, who adopted Sonia to join her family of oldies, but I hope to get more information about their work.
Ibizan Hound Rescue have changed their website. Have a look, read about the character and temperament of these fabulous hounds. Have you room in your heart for one? Look under adopt and see some of them waiting – contact the associations direct.
Here’s an appeal from a small animal charity based in Valencia, who are desperately seeking homes for 3 podenco x.
‘My name is Pat Taylor and I’m emailing you on behalf of an animal charity called P.E.P.A. based in the Valencian Community of Spain. We don’t have any kennels, all our animals are placed with foster carers or in small family run kennels. Our website is

3 beautiful babies who don’t deserve to be in a killing station. I haven’t got much information, the email implies that they are in Jerez perrera in Cadiz, along with a handsome brindle year-old male galgo with an injured hind leg. The information came from Maribel. Any further information or help welcome.
This poor bitch is one of three podencos abandoned close to the River (murcia). A boy who saw them and took the pictures said they look young, are skin and bones. Another man in the area is trying to shoot them. Please contact any of these people to find the exact area if you can help. With the heat, and without food and water in the middle of the campo, they will not last long.

This post is for “SUPER PEOPLE.” Please help this little podenca in Seville.
She has been named Linda. Life has obviously been very miserable for her, at the hands of unscrupulous people who have used her for breeding, discarded now. She’s been wandering for more than 3 months, disoriented, malnourished, depressed. She’s had a blow to the face, no front teeth. She’s currently off the street in an empty house but needs to be with someone who will put the life back into her and find her a forever home. Please can someone take this lost soul.
