  • Azores dog rescue – Podenco Reuben needs a forever home

    May be an image of dog

    This is Reuben. He turned up in the kennel yard late one night, very thin but also very happy to have found me.  He had some issues with smaller dogs initially but he learned quickly to get on with them. (He was definitely a working hunter before)
    Reuben loves people! His tail wags and he smiles.
    After I was rushed to hospital, other rescues stepped in to take responsibility for the vast majority of my rescue dogs.  But Reuben has been in a vet clinic since March, he’s still registered as an ADR dog and the bill now stands at just over 600€.  I only just found out  that he’s still an ADR dog after giving away my last donation last week to another rescuer because I didn’t need it.
    Reuben is available for adoption.  He’s 6 years old and weighs around 18kg, he can’t be with cats and maybe not small dogs but he gets on well with other dogs his size (Willow’s pups used to sleep in his bed) and he’s great with children too.
    If you would like to help pay his clinic boarding costs (before he’s kicked out) you can make a donation through PayPal to azoresdogrescue@yahoo.com or by bank transfer to
    Azores Dog rescue
    IBAN PT50 0059 0011 2304 8800 01616

    If you are interested in adopting this sweet Podengo, please send a message. My heart breaks for him – stuck in a vet kennel for so many months on his own. I’m in the process of moving so I can’t take him.

    KANJI | VIP

    Becoming a VIP sponsor is incredibly kind

    Update on Kanji.

    Update, August 26, 2026: Unfortunately, there is some less-than-ideal news regarding sweet Kanji. That said… While the news isn’t exactly positive, it does demonstrate that shelter volunteers truly consider a dog’s specific needs and always prioritize the well-being of the animals—in this case, Kanji. It has been decided that Kanji will no longer be offered for adoption in the Netherlands.

    Kanji is a dog with significant trauma and a painful past; she arrived at the shelter having suffered severe abuse and having barely survived. Initially, this background made her seem like a shy but grateful girl. However, the longer she has stayed at the shelter, the more her fear of new things—and people in particular—has resurfaced. The volunteers cannot pinpoint exactly what is triggering her trauma again; it is possible that because she now feels safe in the shelter, her trauma makes her afraid of the unknown. (more…)
