Podenca Almond in Toledo – starving and saved just in time
Almond for adoption!We had us notice of an abandoned puppy, but upon arrival at the scene we couldn’t believe what we saw. She could barely get up, we don’t know how many days she hadn’t eaten or had a drink. We went right to the vet, and evidently, she stayed in. She was there for a week and now she’s already with us.
She is good, very good and although she has severe malnutrition, she eats very well and will recover in no time. She has a sad look, so much must have happened in her life. She has fears but nothing she won’t recover with patience and lots of love, and she won’t miss it at her foster home.
If you’re interested in giving Almond all the love she’s never had write to some of the following phones:

Tail Torrox Dog Rescue – young podencos now in their care
A recent rescue.
‘Two young podenco types. Thank you to their finder, Jill, for feeding them and keeping them safely enclosed in a fenced area. Also thank you to SOS Rescue who kindly assisted to catch them using a large trap. It is a pleasure to work with you knowing the dogs will be safely caught with minimum stress and secured properly for transport.
Sadly we are being asked to help more and more feral dogs. Dogs that have been left abandoned in the streets and campo…They arrive full of parasites and often with preventable diseases. Sometimes they are second generations as breeding is not control.
These dogs do not lead a ‘happy and free life’ as some people would like to believe. Life is a struggle for survival and sooner or later they are taken by disease or die on the roads.Rehabilitation of these dogs takes time, knowledge and of course money.
To donate,

Galgo’s Rescue Almeria – 2 podencos saved at Easter 2021
From Sandy at Galgo’s Rescue Almeria‘2 podencos safe now with GRA…rescued at Easter.
Even on Easter no rest for GRA. We received an emergency call if we could take in a little podenca. Spanish people saw her walking on the highway and did not hesitate to get her out of this extremely danger situation. Many thanks Celia and Matias to save her.
Before “ Bimba “ (that’s the name she got) arrived at our shelter she had already received a bath and treatment for fleas/ticks /worms. The vet has now given her a full checkup, vaccinations, chip/passport and bloodtest. Bimba tested negative for all Mediterranean diseases.
Then a day later we received an emergency call that someone was on our way with a podenco. He walked right next to the motorway and the woman managed to put him in her car. He was easily caught, hurt, full of ticks and exhausted as if asking for help.
We gave him the name Multatuli, which means: “ I have suffered much “. -

Podenca Maneto Thea for adoption – with Adopcion Perros Espana
If it’s a small podenco you prefer, how about this little cutie.‘Thea is still in search of her ultimate family! How pretty she is! She is 7.5kg and 3 years old.
Thea was adopted a few months ago in Bilbao by a fantastic family who have another puppy and rabbits. When Thea arrived at her new home, she had already been cat tested and was compatible, and with the puppy in the house instantly connected. Inseparable.
She ignored the rabbits, and for months the coexistence was great. Her family couldn’t be happier with her.But suddenly, and without anyone understanding why, Thea attacked one of the rabbits and had to rush it to the vet. Luckily he was saved and was able to come home.
But Thea had changed and was only interested in hunting one of the rabbits.
