  • Podenco Antonio hoping for an active forever home

    Antonio Video

    Antonio is a beautiful 2 year old Podenco male with a gentle disposition.  Antonio was found on the streets of Fuerteventuras. Despite his past, he shows himself to be an extremely human, affectionate and friendly dog. Antonio is full of energy because of course he wants to seize the opportunity to show off on the chain when one finally comes by. The young male has a distinctive personality and needs both mental and physical exercise.  Even when dealing with other dogs Antonio shows himself social and uncomplicated – a real treasure who just wants to belong.  Now he only lacks one thing: a loving home where he can arrive and show what a wonderful companion he is.  Who will give Antonio a chance at a new life full of love and security?

  • URGENT ACTION needed from all SPANISH ANIMAL RESCUE ASSOCIATIONS

    From Plataforma NAC

    URGENT: MAXIMUM DISTRIBUTION   –  MANIFESTING SAME DOGS SAME RIGHTS – Stick with your organization!.
    As you will know, they want to exclude hunting and working dogs from the royal decree of zoos nucleus their last hope of being protected. These dogs would be even more unprotected in a royal decree issued from agriculture that would only require registration, identification and a little more. Reporting the poor condition of the handrail would be even harder.

  • 12 October, start of the Spanish hunting season

    October 12, marks the beginning of the hunting season and with it, the terrible countdown for thousands of greyhounds and hunting dogs in Spain. Once again, these noble animals, used and exploited, face an uncertain fate: abandonment, mistreatment, or death when they cease to be useful for hunting.  The cycle of abuse is repeating. Countless innocent lives are already sentenced.  Behind every specimen of breeding, there is a potential discard.  Enough with the abuse and systematic neglect.
    It is urgent and necessary to put an end to uncontrolled breeding and the cruel discardment of greyhounds and hunting dogs.  They deserve respect, love and an existence free of suffering, not mere tools to use and throw away.
    Follow us, support us and join us for the end of the hunt: https://linktr.ee/plataformanac

  • PACMA, SEPRONA & UCOMA meet to discuss the hunting dogs of Spain

    On October 2nd, we held a very important meeting in Madrid with SEPRONA (National Service of the Environment) and the Central Operational Unit for the Environment (UCOMA) of the Civil Guard. I was accompanied by Eva Ramos, legal advisor for PACMA, and our objective was clear: to demand more resources, more inspections, and a greater commitment to protecting hunting dogs.

    We met with Major General Carlos Sarrión, head of SEPRONA, and several representatives from UCOMA to address a reality we can no longer ignore: the neglected situation faced by thousands of dogs used for hunting in Spain. (more…)

  • Podenca puppy Pia – rescued injured from a perrera – please help with vet fees

    From Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends

    Meet Pia.  This brave little Podenco puppy was discovered in a perrera at just 6 weeks old—emaciated, suffering with giardia, and with a dislocated knee. Without help, she wouldn’t have survived.
    Thanks to Suspiros de Cuatro Patas, Pia received urgent care and has recently undergone specialist orthopedic surgery. She’s now receiving ongoing physiotherapy—a treatment that comes with significant veterinary costs. Galgopod have already stepped in with an emergency donation, but more support is urgently needed and they have organised a FB fund raiser to help her,
    Every donation will help cover Pia’s treatment and also support the many other Podencos waiting at the refuge.

  • Nervous Podenco urgently needs a foster home in UK – arrives 25th October

    Gala is booked to arrive in the UK on 25th October but we are still looking for a foster or forever home for this gorgeous girl.  She is really struggling in kennels and we already had to move her transport back a month. We don’t want to delay again.
    Her kennel buddy Indigo was equally as nervous and went to his new home in Sept – he has absolutely flourished and we know Gala will in time as well. If you can offer space for Gala to relax and start to decompress please do get in touch. She will be so rewarding.
    Please contact Hope For Podencos for more info and let’s help this lovely girl find a safe home to travel to.

  • Rescue dogs aren’t broken…

  • Found starving in a rubbish bin in Spain – but at least alive!

    Found in a dumpster, thrown away like garbage. One more victim of hunting in Spain.

    They used it, exploited it, and when it no longer served them, they threw it away without remorse. This is how thousands of hunting dogs end up every season: invisible, discarded, mistreated to the end.

    This little one was found inside a dumpster, without strength, without hope. Only thanks to the protector who rescued him does he have a chance to move on.

    Collaborate with the protector who saved him Suspiros de Cuatro Patas

    Open your home to adoption

    Thank you suspirosdecuatropatas.org

  • Marching in Spain 14 September – remembering the 32 souls in Azuaga Badajoz

    From Plataforma NAC

    Indifference kills.

    This Sunday 14 September we raise our voices for those who could not defend themselves.

    32 lives killed by starvation and neglect in Azuaga (Badajoz). They were not forgotten. It was not an accident. It was cruelty.

    245 animal protection entities, including some international ones, unite to demand justice and that this massacre never happens again https://plataformanac.org/concentracion-azuaga-14…/

    Dozens of dogs have died between suffering, indifference and silence. We cannot allow barbarism to go unpunished.

    This Sunday, September 14, from 11h to 13h, in Plaza de la Merced (opposite the Azuaga City Hall), we will raise our voice for those who no longer have it.

    Because their life matters. Because they’re not tools. Because neglect and abuse kills.

    Come. Shout. Spread the word. Let it not be repeated.
