  • Podencas in Valencia Perrera – urgently need saving

    Valencia perrera mother and daughter 250Podenquitas mother and daughter, mother of 3 or 4 years and 1 year old daughter. The daughter is not interested in hunting, mother has been used for breeding. They are very affectionate, the daughter is easily scared. If you can save them, foster and for adoption, please contact urgently adoptadelaperrera@gmail.com

  • URGENT- young podencas on death row, Rioja, Logorno, 21 Jan is ‘die day’.

    Rioja DORA 190 20 1 2012This appeal was sent out today (20.1.2012). I am not sure if the dogs have had a reprieve, I think they may be killed tomorrow 21/1, rather than 19/1. So I’m sending out the appeal for help for them. A Kennel or foster home urgently needed so they can be got out. We’re talking about Rioja and Logrono immediately.

    Dora is a small young podenca, nervous, hasn’t known affection. When she advances, she is very sweet, just needs a loving home to be a star.

    Moka (below) is another young female podenca. She is skinny, her eyes are fearful, she doesn’t trust. And yet, if she could be rescued now, she will bloom, put on weight and her coat will shine. She will show the joy of life she deserves.

    If anyone can take them now, contact ar.difusionperrera@gmail.com

  • Podenco Iggy in Granada – urgently needs a foster/adopting home before end January

    Iggy 2 190 1 2012I’ve received this urgent plea today. ‘My partner and I need URGENT HELP since we’ve been fostering two dogs, 1 of them a 12 months Andalusian Podenco, whilst trying to find a permanent home for them.

    Our urgent situation is we have to leave Spain for personal reasons and we are moving at the beginning of February from a house we rent and cannot take the dogs with us to the UK or continue to foster them much longer, because we will be staying as guests in houses and our near future is quite uncertain.

  • Podenco rescued from the shacks of Seville – anyone room for him?

    Macu old podenco 250 1 2012This old boy is another one rescued from the shanty town outside Seville. Here’s what Macu says about him.

    ‘I´ve taken another one out of the shacks settlement but it´s also really urgent. There are too many animals that need help and I´ve just taken out this poor one and a young female because they were the worse cases. I have too many in the residence (kennels) and I need help for this one.

    He´s an old male. He has a bone fracture and it´s for sure he will spend a lot of time at the residence and I can´t keep him there for so long.

  • Happy Endings Final Feliz – Fabi waits with them for a forever home

    Fabi 1 Eva Happy Ends 250 1 1 2012This is an appeal from Happy Endings Final Feliz in Chiclana near Cadiz. Last winter friends of mine spent a couple of months there helping the association with abandoned dogs and looking after them. They came back with two puppies which had been born to an abandoned podenca; now named Oliver and Nancy, the puppies are benefiting from being in a home environment, although Nancy continues to be nervous of strangers.

    Fabi is another such young dog, whose mother was a Podenca. Karen takes up his story.

    ‘He’s been waiting for nearly a year for someone to take him into their heart. He’s around 3 years old and is a very sweet dog.

  • Seville – the horror behind the glitter that tourists see

    Seville podenco 4 250 Macu 1 2012There are dozens of unsung heroes in Spain, helping the abandoned dogs and cats, funding much of their care themselves whilst working to earn a living. Macu is one such lady, in Seville. Some of the appeals I have posted on Galgo News and Podenco Post have been from her. Here she explains what she tries to do, and the problems she faces, like so many volunteers breed dogs.

    ‘Good afternoon everybody, I´ll try to summarize.
    In this settlement by Seville there are more or less 20 shacks with 30 dogs each one (with their owners). I´ve spent 3 years of my life there, saving galgos, podencos and mixed dogs none wanted by their owners.

  • Podenco Canario Lelo – in Lincolnshire waiting for his forever home

    SARA Lelo. crop 250 JPGHowever hard the rehoming associations work to fit the right dog with the right home, sometimes situations change and that happened for this stunning Podenco Canario from Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. Here’s what Rick says.

    ‘This stunning boy has been returned to us after only 5 months in his ‘forever’ home – and not because of anything HE did wrong! The reason given by the family is ‘we couldn’t spend enough time with him as we have started extra duties at church.’
