  • Podenco Campanero Oddie – a very special tripod hoping for a forever home

    Oddie 1 350
    Tripod dogs are amazing, Having 3 legs doesn’t have to be a handicap.

    Introducing tripod Podenco Campanero ODDIE who was rescued almost 2 years ago by Happy Footprints Association with a shot in his elbow that left him totally devastated.. tried with medication to cure him, but there was no way, and there was a high risk of endangering his health, so there was no choice but to amputate his leg.

    He says ‘I don’t mind having 3 legs at all, because I live a totally normal life, but it seems… because of this no one wants to adopt me. I am a beautiful podenquito campanero, 7 years old, medium size, I am not very big, I am totally healthy and although at first I am a little scared of the unknown, as soon as I take confidence I am a charmer!! I just want to get the chance to know what it feels like to have a family to care for me and love me forever.’

    Reach out at asociacionhuellasfelices@gmail.com and they’ll tell you all you need to know about me. I’m in Peñarroya-Pueblonuevo (Cordoba) but I can travel to your home if you want to give me the family I need.

  • Podenca Candy hoping for a forever home

    Candy 1 4 2025 350
    Introducing Candy, a stunning freckled Podenca with Maz’s Canine Rescue.

    Hi there… I’m Candy. I’m a two-year-old Spanish Podenco with a heart full of hope and the softest little paws you ever did see. I live at MAZ’s Canine Rescue in Tijola, where I was rescued and given a second chance. Life here is safe and kind — I have doggy friends to play with, good food, and gentle people who care for me. But still… every night, I curl up and dream of a forever home.

    I’m a bit shy when we first meet — I like to take my time and figure out the world at my own pace. But once I feel safe, I’ll show you my playful side. I’m really good with other dogs (I love a good game of chase!), and I’m learning all about this walking-on-a-lead thing. It’s still a bit new to me, but I’m trying so hard and getting braver every day.

  • Grandpa Valentino – hoping to spend his late years in a loving forever home

    Valentin 4 2025 300
    Older dogs can be just as rewarding as younger ones. Especially suited to a home with older people who prefer gentle walks and companionship. Introducing Valentin, who fits the bill.

    La Sonrisa Peludo says – Grandpa VALENTINO (11 Years) “lived” all his life as a long sentence at the hands of a devil galgueroL….years of Lockdown…. He never had a caress, it takes patience to helpit.

    No one has shown any interest in him, is he to be sentenced to end his life in a cage? Is there no chance for him?

  • Blind Podenca Victoria seeks a special home

    Blind podenca 4 2025 350
    Victoria is blind. And she is in an asylum. A place full of noises she can’t place, smells that confuse her, stress from other dogs that she can’t avoid. For a dog that can’t see, life out there is downright scary.

    She has no panic, no trauma, no aggression — she is just gentle, sweet and affectionate. But she lacks what every animal needs: peace, safety, stability.

    Victoria is not a dog that you “just save”. She is not an impulse adoption. But if you have a warm heart, and feel that you can only give that little extra… then you get an incredibly sweet dog for that.

    Email me if you are interested and I will pass your name on to the contact.

  • Blind Dog Rescue UK – foster homes needed

    A few of days ago I wrote about our blind podenco Bo and his stomach cancer. Bo came to us over 3 years ago from Blind Dog Rescue UK via Ibizan Hound Rescue in Spain.

    All animal rescue value foster homes and blind dogs are no exception.

    Kathy Orton of bdruk says –

    We are looking for foster homes in the UK. As a foster you will help our most vulnerable dogs, allowing them to come to the UK to live with you until they find their forever home, you can still foster for us if you have resident pets, we will match a dog suitable for you.

  • Lanzarote – Podenca Pirata desperately needs a forever home

    Lanzarote blind pod 1 350
    Podencos in the Canary Islands find it difficult to find forever homes because of the cost of flying them to mainland Europe. But they deserve forever homes as much, if not more, that most podencos. This sweet podenca is hoping for her forever home soon.

    PIRATA female 2 years old, Podenca Canario very sociable and affectionate, LOOKING FOR A NICE FUTURE. She can travel

    SARA Protectora Lanzarote say: ‘A few days ago we gave a talk about animal protection and welfare at the Official Reef Language School. To this talk we were accompanied by the sweet PIRATA, this beautiful podenquita who charmed everyone present asking for cuddles at every step. As the talk was in German and Pirate isn’t very good at it, she took the opportunity to greet everyone and show them how good, caring and noble she is.

    Contact SARA Protectora about Pirata or any of the other podencos they have hoping for forever homes.

  • 22nd March – World Podenco Day

    World Podenco Day 22 March 350
    From Bev Farmer, Podenco Friends

    Today, March 22nd, marks World Podenco Day in Spain!

    On this day we pay tribute to a breed that embodies nobility and pride, yet often endures a harsh reality in Spain. Many Podencos are subjected to unimaginable conditions, deprived of the respect they rightfully deserve.

    Tragically, countless Podencos spend their lives confined in dark buildings, underground caves, or chained to walls, with nothing but rancid water to drink. They’re expected to run tirelessly until exhaustion takes its toll, only to be discarded when they’re no longer deemed useful.
