After the 25th May successful demonstration in Granada and other Spanish cities after the brutal shooting and death of Podi the podenca, Maria Mercedes Garcia Mauri says ‘the next step is to persuade the people who saw the murderer with the gun right after the gun shots and the dog coming out screaming, covered in blood and deathly wounded, to TELL THE GUY´S FULL NAME TO THE AUTHORITIES, so that justice can be made. I do not know whether we will manage it or not, but I tell you…I will try HARD!!’ We wish her all success

Quinolones – a very serious health risk – Kate’s story
This story is a health warning about Quinolone antibiotics. It is a blog by an amazing lady whose life story would astound you. Kate now lives in Spain but for many years lived in France. She has been an animal lover all her life. Her life has been destroyed after being prescribed quinolone antibiotics. She says ‘I only had cystitis and it wasn’t even an infection, just severe inflammation, so I didn’t need any antibiotic, let alone a toxic one. That is the case for vast numbers of people – the majority who are prescribed quinolones, I reckon.’

Valencia perrera – time running out for this young podenco
This rough haired podenco doesn’t know why he’s been left behind in Valencia perrera. Many of his friends have left, either been rescued or killed. He’s been in there a couple of months now and his time is running out. He’s one of the two in the cage.

Valencia perrera – 2 podenco puppies – please help
Valencia pound. On death row. Two brothers, about six months old, precious and super friendly. They have honey-coloured eyes. One is a bit more suspicious than the other, are very funny because if you tell them things, the one on the right will wags its tail and get belly up and give kisses, because he wants to come, but as his brother is more cautious (I’m sure on the street he has survived thanks to him) he tells his brother not to come, and is constantly taking care of both.
Hopefully someone can help the two together because they are very close. One without the other could not survive on the street. They are identical twins. Will be tall, because they are still puppies, appear to be Ibizans.
