Dylan in the middleWe need more sponsors to keep helping this little one, if you want to be Dylan’s sponsor join by clicking the Whatsapp link. Or if you are your family and want to adopt him do not hesitate to ask by whatsapp 649453007This is a desperate situation we have with a little angel named Dylan. He was rescued from the perrera and had suffered a lot but was a love nonetheless.. Currently in residence for almost 1 year.. the problem arises now that the residence is 150 dogs and we can no longer pay it because we have few sponsors. Desperately looking for sponsors to not change his residence where he is fully integrated and we hope he leaves already with an adopted family and not produce a trauma with a change to the poor angel… If anyone who might want to be Dylan’s sponsor please let me know and I’ll remind you that everything adds up… Thank youOpen this link to join my WhatsApp Group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/HWNz63mC9gh6Z8zm7cq4VC -
Galgos Rescue Almeria – end of a busy year
2025 is slowly closing its doors and making room for a new chapter: 2026.
The past year was one of ups and downs. We faced unexpected setbacks and intense emotions, but also countless beautiful moments, shared with the special dogs who crossed our path. It was a hectic year that flew by, yet one we look back on with warm and grateful hearts.
We think back to all the D-days: those unforgettable moments when our beloved dogs packed their bags to meet their new families. No fewer than 177 dogs found their happiness this year. A result we could only dream of, and one that was made possible thanks to our amazing partners: Associazione ZAC Odv , Un Levriero per la Vita, Project Galgo, Vegrennen EV, Simona Norkute (Lithuania), Helping Animals Almanzora, Friends of Mazarrón Animals, Stichting Wereldhonden, and of course you—our loyal supporters. By sharing their stories so widely, you helped give each of them a new future. (more…)
