  • More unimaginable cruelty to a podenca

    White podenca 400 11 2021
    From Amores Peludos rescue.

    Ears and tail cut with scissors, literally, with a rusty chain around the neck, skeletal, full of shit and blood, with huge mamary glands. My friend Loli had managed to catch this precious podenca, dead scared and cold,in the street and that’s why she will carry her name, for not looking away. As much as the podencos suffer in this damn country, they are cousins of the Galgos and the suffering is terrible.

    My heart was broken when she came to us, but we have to fight one more time to return the dignity of an innocent angel. Welcome precious Loli to this great family of Furry Loves, your days of suffering are at their end, all your pain and suffering is already over, now you are a princess and it’s time to start writing the next chapter of your life, you have to be happy mi love. Thank you Loli for saving her life and thank you Anselmo for bringing her, you are amazing people.

  • Ciudad Animal Refugio – podencos already abandoned and hunting has only just started!

    Ciudad Animals podencos 400 28 10 2021
    From Ciudad Animal, south of Madrid.

    Ciudad Animal Refugio Animales Abandonados

    Hunting season just started 2 weeks ago and the kennels are already full of pods, galgos, brotons. Those dogs who care for hunters so much I wish that story was true.

    With the galgos it seems that we are more conscious, we know how they are mistreated and used, but the podenco is the big forgotten. You don’t know the big problem there is. You don’t need to go to the Canary Islands to find dirty, without windows full of scared and hungry pods. In every manchego town there are workshops with so many podencos that are missing fingers to count them. We’ve been in this for many years and unfortunately little has changed.

    A few days ago we were called from the kennel looking for help for several dogs and here we are again, with the kennel van full. Let’s try to find a new future for these 20 poor animals.

  • 4 puppies abandoned in the campo – urgent Foster in Malaga needed

    Malaga pups 4 400
    Hard to imagine what happened that these 4 tinies were abandoned but luckily they were spotted and taken into the care of a rescue association. Here’s their story.

    TLF: 722405984 (Spain 0034)

    CHOCOLATE
    STRAWBERRY
    NATA
    VAINILLA

    These 3-and-a-half-month-old puppies were alone in the field when some wonderful girls on holiday found them. They asked for help because they couldn’t catch them since they had rescued another rescued just days before.

    Thank you to a person in the area who took all 4 of them in their home and washed them, care and taken to the vet they are now safe. This person can’t have them many days, max until next Tuesday, he already has more animals and does everything he can for them and more.

    The good news is that we have an association that takes over in managing their adoption, but for them it is necessary to foster Malaga or surroundings.

    We we need help.. this is a chain of favors and if you break the link you break the chain. The girls have no shelter and only thanks to your help can we keep helping.

  • Galgos 112 – saving a Podenco injured and left in the road!

    From Galgos 112

    ‘We got an email asking for desperate help for this poor podenco. Found by some guys who are sightseeing in the county area, in Jaén. He was lying in the middle of the road.

    They stopped to pick him up and, not knowing anyone in the area, they called SEPRONA, they told them they would go but they didn’t show up, then they went to the local police in Castellar and they did not receive help either. Fearing that he would end up in the kennel despite his condition, after much prayers, they have managed to get police to contact them ′′ someone who cares about helping animals “. Here’s how they have been able to get to the store where works Silvia, who is the person who has written to us.
    That’s how it is, the poor dog wasn’t in a position to go back and forth, but nobody except Silvia and these guys has lifted a finger for him!

    Gentlemen of the Seprona and Local Police, we remind you that you are to enforce the animal welfare law, some do not show up, others pass without even looking at whether you have chip and be able to warn your owner. Animals are living beings who feel and suffer and this podenco unfortunately has suffered a lot without you lifting a finger!

    GRA puppy 1a 400
    From Sandy Galgoslover.

    ‘New in our care these 3 gorgeous podenco puppies. They were found in a box at the hospital in Huercal Overa, and APA Nueva Vida brought them to the vet for a check up and giving the first care.

    2 girls and a boy (Caramella, Santina & Gino) approximately 2 months old. Jean Minett was so kind to pick them up at the clinic and she also offered to foster them for a while.

    Many thanks APA to save them, Jean to foster them and Helping Animals Almanzora to support one of the 3 musketeers.

    All help / support for the other 2 rascals is welcome.

  • Podenco Tatoo – left for dead – lucky to be alive

    Tatoo 400 6 2021
    A tragic story…let’s get Tatoo a forever family for a happy ending.

    ‘TATOO was run over and left lying in the gutter without noticing if he was alive or dead. It was winter, cold days and nonstop rain. Two days later, it occurred to them to stop by and see what had been the dog and there he was… and alive!! The truth is that he was deader than alive, unconscious, with an open fracture of the front leg with his bone out , famished… It’s been many tough months in a house but he’s ready to find him a family. He’s a good, calm and happy dog. We don’t know if he will regain foot functionality, but that affects him very little for his running around!
