Podenca Coco hoping for a forever home.
Our 12 year old podenca Coco is such a gem. She is sweet and great with other dogs. Towards people she can be a bit shy. Who would like to give this oldie a chance? After 12 years of hunting and having puppies, her last years should be spend on someone’s sofa. She has now gained weight and will be sterilised soon.
Her suitcases are packed in the hope someone will give this sweet podenca a comfy rest of life.
Interested in her? Contact us on facebook (Tanamera Rescue) or by email stichtingtanamera@gmail.com

URGENT APPEAL for scalibor collars
Animal lovers the summer months are approaching and it’s very important to protect dogs from the sandfly that causes Leishmaniosis. Every year, unfortunately, too many dogs adopted from Spain die abroad due to ignorance, poor information, wrong diagnosis, not the right treatment… So preventing infection with the Leishmania parasite is very important. Contrary to what is often said, Leishmaniosis cannot be cured, in other words your dog will have it for the rest of his or her life. Fortunately, with proper treatment and medication, the infection can be kept under control. Regular blood tests are also recommended, that way your four-legged friend can also grow old like other dogs. We protect dogs during and before the summer months with a collar combined with a pippet. A vaccination is also possible, it’s quite expensive and studies have currently not been able to show whether this vaccination gives sufficient security. (more…)

Sad reality of life for an abandoned podenco in Spain
From Silvia Mateos to the Policia Local de Bejar (your duty is to protect her, and you have left her alone…. You should be suspended from work and pay.
Yesterday was a shitty day….. sadness, anger, helplessness and rage…. The incompetence and negligence of the municipal councils and municipal security forces spoils crime and costs the lives of living beings…. the podenco in the photo is DEAD.
On Friday on New Year’s Day in the middle of the night we get the notice of this dog hit near the roundabout of Palomares, the person who saw it gave notice to the Local Police of Bejar that at first they impersonated themselves and said they would warn the Civil Guard…. no further news…
At 00:40h I communicate with the Local Police of Bejar to ask about her and her situation to be able to help her…… They inform me that the dog is collected in some municipal offices in Béjar and that the next day they will notify the collection service of the Deputation….. i wonder how it is…. his literal response…. “The dog seems to have a major injury on a hind leg, externally she doesn’t have much blood but she’s very decayed, I don’t know she sees it well”. I insist again if they let us help her and her answer is that they have to follow the protocol , (more…)
