Beautiful poignant words which were on the facebook post about the terrified podenco in Jerez perrera.

IF YOU WANT TO LOVE ME…

Love me like animals love,
with a love that is not postponed for later, with a desire that knows no middle ground, with the fidelity that is always taking care of us, and with the naked gaze that never criticizes.

love me like animals love
with that tenderness that never manipulates,
with a silence that makes everything comfortable, without urgency and with all his presence, where there is no room for indifference.

love me like animals love
with a tongue that does not hurt and if it kisses,
with a claw of courage that never threatens,
with that unconditionality that does not abandon, and with the peace of the true rational being.

love me like animals love

Heartbreaking – this podenco has been in the perrera for more than a month. It’s only young, 1 1/2 years old, 12kg weight, terrified yet desperate to please. Contact by email David at pppeludosjerez@gmail.com

Akira Animal Sanctuary – Hayley talls us about Bonito, hoping for his forever home.

Our beautiful Bonito is like a rolled up spring, look how it goes! He’s very excited to spend a day with one of our dedicated volunteers who has taken him out many times before, so he knows what’s in store for him. He’s literally jumping for joy. He loves his chicken treats, cheese and some sausages. He also loves going in the car and feeling the wind in his face and taking in all the smells it brings.

Bonito is 2 years old and a calm soul with a sweet and sensitive character. He is friendly and loves cuddles. He loves playing with other dogs and is always a gentleman. He has lived with a cat in his previous home and slept together in the basket (that’s the sweet soul we talked about). Nice and clean in the house and good with kids too. He’s a wonderful family dog.

He is neutered, vaccinated and has a passport and microchipped. He can travel if necessary, please ask staff for information on arrangements. You can send an email to akirashelter@aol.aol or
with whatsapp +34 657 68 95 67.

This beautiful podenca campanero has been waiting for an unbelievable 8 years in a shelter! Surely there is someone with room in their home and heart for her. Here’s her story.

DID YOU LOOK AT HER WELL? THIS PRECIOUS PRINCESS SLEEPING BEHIND BARS FOR YEARS..

WITH A BROKEN HEART I PRESENT TO YOU NUBE (Podenca Bellanera) One of the “grannies” who has been waiting for a home for a long time. She already had a FAMILY waiting for her, but because she had LEISHMANIA fully controlled and because of a stupid law they DENIED her entry…. !! CONDEMNED!! SENTENCED TO DIE BEHIND BARS. I’M SO SORRY MY PRECIOUS GIRL

IT’S SOOOOOOOO COLD TO BE IN A SHELTER AT 8 YEARS OLD, SHE IS HAVING A BAD TIME, NEEDS A FOREVER HOME.. ARE YOU UP ?….. YOU WON’T REGRET.

We introduce you to Nube, a beautiful Belltard Podenca, of about 25 kilos and approximately 8 years old, rescued with wounds some time ago, positive to leishmania fully controlled, without symptoms or affected organs. We need sponsors for her, to pay for her full analysis, a seresto collar, monthly pipette and her leishmania treatment so that she continues without symptoms and practically.

Needs an active family, with another dog to live with, who likes strong dogs and will fall in love with this pretty face. She lives perfectly with dogs, is affectionate with people and in her 8 years of life she has never known a home, do you dare?

THANK YOU ALL ALWAYS FOR YOUR HELP!

So hard for the podencos in the Canary Islands to find forever homes. Their main chance is on mainland Europe. Here’s one beauty who needs to get into a foster or forever home as soon as possible.

‘XENA, she had to go to foster for a while at least because she was losing so much weight and we don’t know the cause. She lives in a cage nursery and there you can’t be so attentive all the time. She eats well, has no parasites, and her attitude is good. The analysis is fine too.

Now we have changed our thinking and we will continue to do other tests, although it can also be the stress of living so long in cages, that although they are very well taken care of and go out twice a day…. because it’s not the same as a home.

She’s been with us at least two years. She has always lived in cages and rarely will she get spend a weekend in foster care. She’s three and a half years old, active, sociable with dogs, cats hasn’t been bad, and she can be educated with guidelines, time and patience. With people she is a little shy at first but gets used to it relatively quickly.

We are looking for a forever home. Will you help us find it?.

Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends posted this on her facebook page Podenco Friends on lst May

Today we honour the Podenco a breed that is so noble and proud and given the opportunity a wonderful companion. The reality for Podencos is Spain many are subjected to a very harsh life undervalued and not afforded the respect they are owed.

A life locked away in darken buildings underground caves and bunkers often chained to the wall. A plastic bucket filled with rancid green water to drink. No soft bed to sleep on and never a full belly, these dogs are expected to run until their lungs burst and they do, for their master. The reward for their loyalty, once no longer able to do their job because they have become old, sick or injured, they are abandoned in their thousands every year.

Many try to survive on the streets seek sanctuary in the countryside where they starve to death or get hit by cars. Others are handed in to perreras, where the chances of them being adopted are slim.
