  • Canary Islands – abandoned podenco pup – desperately need help with vet fees

    This 4 week old Podenco pup has been found today (8/4/2014) in La Santa, Gran Canaria. Luckily for him, Joanne came to his rescue and contacted us for help. He is at the vets with suspected poisoning or gastroentiritis – he is very, very poorly. He is on a drip, receiving antibiotics and they are desperately trying to keep his temperature up with heat pads, blankets and hot water bottles. Please keep your fingers crossed for little Pudin’. If anybody can help with just a little for his vets bills we would be very grateful.

    Chiqui Malaga 190 2Every day I’m receiving appeals for podencos on death row in the perreras….but until podencos in residencias and refuges are adopted, there isn’t any room for the others. Heartbreaking. However, here are two young ones which need help.

However, donations are needed to pay for the residencia and also the vet for vaccinations. You can paypal donations here to Elena Elena Alonso is keeping me updated.
