  • Lanzarote podencos looking for forever homes

    From Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends.

    ‘The last flight of Podencos from Lanzarote was in February this year and all those lucky podencos are now in their forever homes.

    We were ready to fly these 4 over, then COVID hit and no flights so they have been stuck in residence in the Island. Laura and her team have been making sure the dogs have been taken out on regular walks and spending time with them ..All 4 of them are very comfortable with people spent time with children so ready to be rehomed.

    The Podencos on Lanzarote have little chance of finding homes on the Island and limited transport links makes it very difficult to fly them out . So that is where Podenco Friends come in we bring them to the Finca from here there are more opportunities for them to be rehomed.

  • The Podenco – abused by the hunters – be a voice to help the Podencos

    Bev podencos 400 8 2020
    From Bev Farmer. The Podenco .. an intelligent and sensitive breed here Spain yet so many are subjected to a harsh and miserable life. Lack of good food and veterinary care leaves then under nourished and weak. So they find themselves abandoned left to survive on the streets or handed in to a perrera where the chances of been adopted are low.

    We have no actual stats to declare how many are abandoned every year but many believe it’s in the region of 50,000.

    One of the more difficult challenges is finding homes for them, these are a special breed that come with particular needs. But once you do have a podenco in your life, one will never be enough.

    How can every one help? spread the word get the message out there ….be the voice for the great forgotten

  • Podenco Milo – stunning young dog looking for a forever home

    Rosana Perez Palacios Milo 400 8 2020
    Milo is a stunning two-year-old amber brown podenquito, weighing 17 kilos, medium size, which in addition to being gorgeous is a puppy love. He’s got a look that makes you want to eat him kisses. He’s loving, very very noble, sociable with other puppies, of cats passes, and at home great.

    As a good podenco is ideal for company, to be quietly at home and at the same time can be an athlete who loves going out to the mountain, to the beach…

    It’s two years of his life he has spent them locked up in a cage, so far that is in foster with a family. It’s time for this spectacular podenquito to find that wonderful family. If you want to know more about him, see more photos and videos: 638.475.167, if not, please SHARE so he can soon be with his family.

  • Podencos Camilo and Eloy – en route to a forever home

    Polly Camilo and Eloy 400 8 2020
    Update from Polly Mathewson

    A happy update on our terrified shy podenco brothers CAMILO & ELOY. Our once “IN KENNELS & IN-VISIBLE” brothers are now progressing on their way in little steps towards their ultimate goal which is a loving forever home! They are now graduating to their next stage..

    You will remember their first step on from the large rural Spanish kennels (where they had become so invisible and overlooked for FIVE long years) was to our friends at Bedrock Kennels near Mijas. With our grateful thanks to Michelle and Alan and family at Bedrock the boys have already come on so much. They were so petrified when they arrived a month ago and with the happy, loving atmosphere there they are much more assured.

  • Galgo’s Rescue Almeria – small shelter saving podencos and galgos

    GRA thin podenco 400
    From Sandy Galgoslover.

    ‘GRA is active for 3 years now. After many disappointments and deception by false prophets who pretend to be animal lovers with the motto: “everything for the dogs” while their real motives are: “everything for our own benefit and profit”, we are now surrounded by the right people with the right intentions and we can give many dogs a new and better life.

    But to save dogs and provide them with the necessary care and medical treatment to adopt them, money is needed, a lot of money.

    As a small shelter it’s a daily struggle to survive and we depend on donations.
