  • 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

  • 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.

  • Podenco Campanero Gandalf hoping for a special forever home.

    Campanero Gandalf 350
    Here comes Gandalf and his story immediately captured our hearts. Gandalf is a Podenco Campanero – he is 4-5 years old and he is deaf. He was separated from his master because he went to a nursing home. And then unfortunately his master died very quickly. He had called every day and asked for Gandalf. But that can’t be a phone call anymore.

    Gandalf is a super sweet and affectionate male. He gets along with other dogs and very friendly with people. Gandalf is looking for a very experienced home or foster home due to his deafness. We are just incredibly sorry for him. Is there a light sight for the beautiful Podenco boy? He is already neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested negative for Mediterranean diseases.

  • Podenca Penny with SOS Podenco Rescue – looking for an experienced quiet home

    Penny 1 350
    Penny is a two year old Andalusian podenca saved from a pound. She had a fracture on a front leg. She had surgery and she is fine, she can run quite fast and she is not in pain. But sometimes she still holds it up.

    Small size around 40 cm to the shoulders. She is terrified of men. She is shy with unknown women but once she trusts you, she is very affectionate. Very social with other dogs. Very playful. Cat workable. Negative to Leishmania.

    She needs a house with fenced garden in a calm environment without kids and with at least another playful dog.

    She is not very good on a leash because she is scared of everything and she tries to escape.

  • Foster or Adopt a Senior – they have just as much love to give

    Older 1 3 2025 350
    From Galgos 112

    Have you thought about it, meditated, balance the pros and cons… but you don’t want a dog that’s too “active”.. Have you thought about a grandpa or grandma?

    And why not?….. Growing up doesn’t mean they have nothing left to give..

    They are caring, calm, understand perfectly the basic rules, they do not need so much activity as a younger one, they have not lost curiosity to know new places and things

    Older dogs often get overlooked but they can be wonderful companions with many years of life left in them. We adopted 2 older podencos, sadly lost one to stomach cancer but Rosie is still full of beans and enjoying a comfy loving home.
