  • Podenco Ibicenco Timo – looking for a special forever home

    Bev Timo 400 3 2023
    From Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends.

    ‘Timo … I need your help to find him his forever sofa

    He has been with us for a long time ..years, he was adopted twice once to the UK (it didnt work out for him ). Then later to Spain but a change of circumstances with his family meant he came back ..

    To be honest I kind of lost my confidence about rehoming him I was worried it wouldnt work out for him and whilst at the finca he had a great life, plenty of dogs for him to play with lots of space to run around .. But when I had my accident last summer which I didnt make a big fuss about, but I was struggling and needed crutches to walk for some time. When I moved from the finca I wasnt able to walk him, so I had to put him into a residence where he has been there for some months.

  • Stunning Podenco Ibicencos looking for forever homes

    From Patri Esteve

    Podencos Ibicencos, the poor cousin of the galgos!

    Andalucia is an area full of them because of their features they have spread all over the territory. Maybe that’s why we don’t know how to appreciate what we have.

    They are:

    Faithful (especially loving and empathetic) energetic lovely (great with people and other dogs) willing loyal smart disease resistant and with few congenital diseases great at Agility love toys
    ….
    But if there’s a race, forgotten and punished, it’s them.

    These are some of ours, they are female and male over 2 years old, no use for hunting.

    But they make wonderful pets.

    Want to check it out? Did you discover them and repeat them? Recommend a Podenco!!

  • 4 Podencos dumped in a perrera – the ‘detritus of Spanish hunting’

    Podenco in perrera 400 1 14 3 2023
    From Huellas Eternas

    In Spain you realize that no matter the time, no matter the “service” you have done, no matter that despite having delivered your whole life to the hunter, he doesn’t care what happens to you because of course, the new legal abandonment modality does not protect you, so here comes the perrera.

    These are 4 beautiful podencas are 8 and 12 years old, their owner has given them to the facility because they are no longer going to hunt, so at their ages they are already well there and continue life….. but the 4 of them stands behind those bars….

    Beacuse they are older, is it going to make it very difficult for them to be adopted? This is the big question that we are asking ourselves, with great pity and powerlessness, because cases like this break your heart even more if it fits.

    We ask for adoption for them, we ask that they do not become invisible, we ask that their lives begin again from the warmth of a home and the love of a family that will love them for the rest of their lives.

  • Podenco Lucas waiting for his forever with Ourense Protectora

    Ourense Grandpa Lucas 400 14 3 2023
    The Podencos, the great FORGOTTEN

    Grandpa LUCAS’s feet hurt so much. He’s an angel who’s slowly turning OFF….

    Grandpa Lucas at 10-years-old is one of the oldest angels of the protege and of the most needy. They say he has green EYES that just looking at you captivate you, the volunteer tells me that when they go out for a walk only once a week when they return she has to hold him in their arms like a baby because he doesn’t want to go in the CAGE.

    Contact: Progape Ourense (Galicia)… progapeourense@hotmail.com Tel: 988 21 29 39

    Lucas was one of the family and then when the owner moved to an apartment, Lucas was not in his plans, as happens too often.

    Grandpa Lucas spent a long time without eating, ALWAYS waited for his “Family”… But this one NEVER came back for him…… Time passes and Lucas understood that his owner would never come back for him.

  • Podenco Alex – friends with cats too

    Alex 400 2 2023
    From Rosaly Torvnes.

    Alex is a very sweet, fun, affectionate and happy dog. He´s ONE year old, 12 kg and 48cms tall. He arrived at the shelter on October 2022. The shelter was informed that there was an abandoned dog who was going frequently to a bar nearby, everyday, and looking for food.

    Alex goes well with other dogs, but has a certain mild dominance with other MALE dogs. Still, he´s a very sociable dog!

    Alex is friendly with children, walks well on a lead and travels just fine in cars. Not good with cats.

    Alex seems to be a small version of a mix between galgoxpodenco. His looks are exquisitely beautiful. Alex is waiting for a home!

    Alex is in Cartagena, Murcia.

  • Galgos sans Famille – beautiful podencos needing forever homes

    Galgos sans famille

    Let’s not forget the Podencos!! They too are impacted by this new law in Spain which excludes them as well as Galgos from any form of protection and continue to retain the status of “tool dogs”

    They too deserve to leave Spain after a life of exploitation for hunting, abuse and misery. It should not be forgotten that most of these dogs have never known home life, human love and family life, so they will need gentleness, love and patience, but they will give it back to you hundredfold
