Remember Operation Rehala in Bullas in January 2012? It was known the owner had animals on other sites. Well, you’ll be pleased to know the Bastard of Bullas has been tracked down to another site. Here’s what Bev Farmer reports.
BULLAS MURCIA 2014 ARRESTED A FARMER AND HIS SON FOR AN ALLEGED CRIME OF ANIMAL ABUSE
This is the heart-wrenching appeal I received this morning.
My name is Ciara. I am writing to enquire about the possibility of rehoming my Podenco, Pepe, through your website.
I carried out an internship in Valencia last year, and, long story short, returned to Scotland six months later having rescued a Podenco puppy from the streets, nursed him back to health and brought him home with me. Since then, we have been blissfully happy together, and he’s like my baby. But the bad news is that my circumstances have recently changed. I’m about to graduate from university and have been offered a job in Belfast, which is full-time, and in that instance I will be unable to continue looking after him. It’s not a situation in which to keep a young podenco.

Fundraiser by Rain Jordan in the US for a centre for podencos
Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends has been accused of publishing propaganda about the plight of the podencos, that they don’t have a hard life. Probably her accuser is a podenco breeder/hunter – they always claim there isn’t a problem for the podencos! This is a video she made when she went to help with the Bullas Rescue – Operation Rehala – in March 2012. One thing not show is the trench where the bodies of dead puppies were thrown. Here’s a link to the original story. 120 dogs were rescued.
Bev has many rescued podencos now ready for adoption. Email her if you would like to find out more.
Eurogroup for Animals is campaigning to put animal welfare at the heart of the European Elections and make animal welfare an issue that gets citizens to vote and make a difference. In the year of the citizens the distance between the EU institutions and European citizens seems larger than ever. We need to engage the members of the next European Parliament, as the only directly elected EU institution, to bridge the gap between a world of paper and the interests of real citizens and animals, of flesh and blood.
This website shows what needs to be done, who is committed to help and allows Europe’s citizens to understand where they can make an impact on animal welfare at the next European Elections.
