This podenca is in Gesser killing station, Cadiz, Almeria. Can’t anyone take her. And don’t tell me there is a God, that allows innocent animals to suffer like this! I gave up believing a long time ago, because too many animals all over the world suffer unnecessarily, at the hands of man! Finally got an email address! gloryfranjose@hotmail.com

European Collective for Protection of Greyhounds & Galgos
Together with several organisations, notably Galgos Ethique Europe and l”Arche de Levriers, Greyhounds Rescue Holland has worked on the foundation of the Collectif Europeen pour la protection des Levriers, in English known as the European Collective for the Protection of Hounds.
Following discussions and consultations with the office of the Member of European Parliament Mrs. Striffler, (she is the MEP who marched with us in Strasbourg in March 2012), it is clear that the only way forward is a collective and sustained effort by European organisations and European participation of the public. No small feat indeed and we are well aware that it will be a difficult uphill climb. But the bigger the challenge, the stronger the determination!

Pepis Refuge, Seville – dogs poisoned by local person! Please help
As if the volunteers helping the Spanish animals didn’t have enough to contend with,
rescuing and repairing abandoned dogs and cats, they suffer at the hands of those against what they do. Some people are just pure evil. Pepis Refuge near Seville recently suffered an horrendous attack on their dogs, Alan Brian tells the sickening story.‘It all started a few days ago for us, I say that because our vet told us it takes about 9 days to act, warferin or rat poison as it is better known. We had a beautiful chocolate brown podenco boy who had the most fantastic nature, we called him Chet. When we came to clean him one morning, we saw blood in his pen and he was looking quite sad.

Albacete perrera, Spain – over 200 dogs due to be pts now!
Last week I posted a comment from a volunteer in Spain, that many perreras kill ALL the dogs in August, because they want to close down completely for the holidays. Well, Albacete Perrera is going to do just that. Over 200 dogs are due to be pts any time now! Several of them are beautiful young podencos.
L’Europe des Levriers is the French association with whom I have travelled to Spain on many rescue missions. One of the refuges they work with is in Albacete. But they can’t cope with this massive programme of euthanasia.
If there any associations who can help with taking any of the podencos, please contact Alicia on edl.alicia@gmail.com
