  • Podenca Almond in Toledo – starving and saved just in time

    Toledo pod 1 400 4 2021
    Almond for adoption!

    We had us notice of an abandoned puppy, but upon arrival at the scene we couldn’t believe what we saw. She could barely get up, we don’t know how many days she hadn’t eaten or had a drink. We went right to the vet, and evidently, she stayed in. She was there for a week and now she’s already with us.

    She is good, very good and although she has severe malnutrition, she eats very well and will recover in no time. She has a sad look, so much must have happened in her life. She has fears but nothing she won’t recover with patience and lots of love, and she won’t miss it at her foster home.

    If you’re interested in giving Almond all the love she’s never had write to some of the following phones:

  • Tail Torrox Dog Rescue – young podencos now in their care

    A recent rescue.

    ‘Two young podenco types. Thank you to their finder, Jill, for feeding them and keeping them safely enclosed in a fenced area. Also thank you to SOS Rescue who kindly assisted to catch them using a large trap. It is a pleasure to work with you knowing the dogs will be safely caught with minimum stress and secured properly for transport.

    Sadly we are being asked to help more and more feral dogs. Dogs that have been left abandoned in the streets and campo…They arrive full of parasites and often with preventable diseases. Sometimes they are second generations as breeding is not control.
    These dogs do not lead a ‘happy and free life’ as some people would like to believe. Life is a struggle for survival and sooner or later they are taken by disease or die on the roads.

    Rehabilitation of these dogs takes time, knowledge and of course money.

    To donate,

  • Galgo’s Rescue Almeria – 2 podencos saved at Easter 2021

    GRA Bimba 400 1 4 2021
    From Sandy at Galgo’s Rescue Almeria

    ‘2 podencos safe now with GRA…rescued at Easter.

    Even on Easter no rest for GRA. We received an emergency call if we could take in a little podenca. Spanish people saw her walking on the highway and did not hesitate to get her out of this extremely danger situation. Many thanks Celia and Matias to save her.

    Before “ Bimba “ (that’s the name she got) arrived at our shelter she had already received a bath and treatment for fleas/ticks /worms. The vet has now given her a full checkup, vaccinations, chip/passport and bloodtest. Bimba tested negative for all Mediterranean diseases.

    Then a day later we received an emergency call that someone was on our way with a podenco. He walked right next to the motorway and the woman managed to put him in her car. He was easily caught, hurt, full of ticks and exhausted as if asking for help.
    We gave him the name Multatuli, which means: “ I have suffered much “.

  • Update on Blanca with Podenco Friends

    Bev Blanca 400 4 2021
    Latest news from Bev Farmer about Podenca Blanca.

    ‘Handed into a perrera 2 days before Christmas along with Pinto eight years old, her owner signed over which cancels the need to wait 21days before they can euthanise. Both are older podencos and often passed over for adoption, after all those years of loyal service this was is how they were repaid.

    Blanca arrived at the finca on Christmas Eve very scared and I noticed her ankle was swollen and she was holding her leg up . So got her on some pain meds and anti-inflammatories and basically left them to rest. The swelling on her wrist went down but she was still lame. At her check up at our vets took x-rays and saw the reason why, her left elbow has very severe arthritis. This was not recent, it is a chronic condition and most likely from an old injury, she has suffered for a number of years. Her owner never put his hand in pocket to get her treated and their solution just dump her, no longer their problem.

  • Podenca Maneto Thea for adoption – with Adopcion Perros Espana

    Adopcion Perros Espana 400 25 3 2021
    If it’s a small podenco you prefer, how about this little cutie.

    ‘Thea is still in search of her ultimate family! How pretty she is! She is 7.5kg and 3 years old.

    Thea was adopted a few months ago in Bilbao by a fantastic family who have another puppy and rabbits. When Thea arrived at her new home, she had already been cat tested and was compatible, and with the puppy in the house instantly connected. Inseparable.
    She ignored the rabbits, and for months the coexistence was great. Her family couldn’t be happier with her.

    But suddenly, and without anyone understanding why, Thea attacked one of the rabbits and had to rush it to the vet. Luckily he was saved and was able to come home.

    But Thea had changed and was only interested in hunting one of the rabbits.

  • Podenca Esca – healing and chilling out with Podenco Friends

    Bev Esca 400 25 3 2021
    Remember Esca, the injured pregnant podenca with Bev Farmer of Podenca Friends. Here’s an update.

    ‘Hola, my latest blood test results just come back and now negative for Anaplasma and no longer anaemic. My leg is getting stronger and sometimes I do little zoomies but it gets tired. So Bev is getting me an orthopedic brace just for a little support.

    Also I need to do some more intensive physio to help with the muscle in my shoulder.. All those months holding the leg up has made it stiff. She tells me she’s getting me a wobble board and a special ball to some exercises.

    So for now I’m just chilling out on the bed, everyone, having a great day’
