Maybe you read the news on the Scooby blog or maybe you don´t, but the histories about the trips Scooby makes to save galgos is every time a different one, it´s not that we repeat the same rescues every time. Therefore I put them here again and it’s from January until 23 February, so the rescues from December and before are not included:

From April Lamb. Dear Rescue Partners and Rescue Advocates,
Hound Sanctuary (USA) recently purchased, moved to, and retrofitted a much larger, more dog-friendly facility in order to have more room and more joy for more podencos, galgos, and others while we prepare them for and select their perfect forever homes. The sanctuary comprises a 5000 square foot building on about 2 acres of land that includes two very large yards, a medium sized yard, and a small yard, all with 6 foot tall, secured fencing.

Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert – saving the podencos in Sevillia
Here are stories from Levriers sans Frontieres about 2 podencos, now safe with Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert in Seville, and who will eventually come to France for forever homes.
Here’s the story of the first one, Bashira. After she was found at the roadside, throughout the journey to the shelter, she has not moved, not cried. she is so courageous and yet what she must suffer! She was rushed to the vet for urgent operation. Upon her arrival she was supported by Lillian, the veterinarian at the FBM, who took xrays. The legs are fractured, put in splints whilst waiting for an operation by the orthopedist. Under anaesthetic, her injuries have been disinfected and she was given antibiotic. This tiny podenca is barely a year old, what a terrible start to its life.

The hung hound
The title could also be: cruelty goes on and on and on…From Cadiz Scooby took this Podenco. He had just been found with the rope still round his neck. It is a miracle how he did survive with this deep wound at all but he did. He has been treated by the vet, and he is already living in Fermin´s pack with a big bandage around his
neck. He’s been named Noel.He has been promised a home where he will find love and protection forever. Could it be with you??

The ultimate trust – Podenco Anubis and his vet
Yet another stunning photo by Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends. This is Anubis who was taken to visit his vet because of concerns that he was not gaining weight. So many dogs are afraid of their vet. Anubis is the opposite, he has complete faith. If you would like to help Bev and Warren with the dozens of podencos in their care, needing vet treatment, paypal podencofriends@hotmail.co.uk
