Podenco Post

  • Breach of copyright

    It has been drawn to my attention that an extract from my book From Pyramid to Perrera has been posted on SOS Podenco Rescue and The Pod People on facebook.

    Kindly note this is in direct breach of copyright. No permission was sought for any extract from my book to be used in any form as clearly stated at the beginning of my book. No credit is given to my book, the source of the piece Characteristics of a Podenco is not stated. Whilst I do not have the funds to sue the perpetrator on both her fb pages, it should be noted that this is a gross contravention of copyright issues about which the perpetrator doesn’t give a damn!

    Whilst my information in the article is accurate, the perpetrator on occasion posts misleading information about podencos and people should not believe all she writes by her own hand.

  • Tango – the perfect dog waiting for ever for his forever home

    KennelKlub Tango 250 6 4 2015TANGO is an incredible dog waiting for a home. He has been waiting patiently for 6 months. Not only is he super handsome he has a fabulous personality. He is extra specially cuddly, intelligent and obedient.

    He has done a 6 week basic training course and surprised us all at how well he did! Whoever adopts Tango will be very lucky indeed! He is around 5 years old and a Podenco/Galgo cross. He is in Lanzarote but transport can be arranged for the right home.

    Fabulous video of the lovely TANGO at training classes. He is doing so well and we are SUPER proud of him! This gorgeous Podenco/Galgo cross is a great dog, attentive, obedient and always eager to please. He is a cuddle monster!

  • Journey to Scooby, Medina del Campo – a volunteer reports

    Great read about volunteers at Scooby in March, especially to learn that all the podencos they rescued recently are either in foster or adoptant homes. Do think about taking a ‘holiday’ and volunteering at Scooby. Besides the hotel mentioned in the report, Scooby also offer caravan accommodation. And don’t forget, Scooby have hundreds of animals for adoption – dogs, cats, ferrets, horses, donkeys, poultry…
