  • Animales Rioja – podencos desperately needing foster and forever homes

    Rioja%20Pele%20and%20Mele%20Manetos%20250Further to the appeal from Animales Rioja for donations to pay for kennel fees now they have had to move their 70 dogs into kennels, below are the lovely podencos which they rescued from the perrera. Pilar says ‘they were rescued by our organization many months ago, but we have not enough money to feed them or pay vet fees because we have no association helping us – our only income is adoption money. That’s why we need the dogs to find families and for Podencos it is so difficult!

    These two above are Pele and Mele, brothers, Podenco Maneto – which is a small type, dachshund size and shape. Lugo (1st below) is also a Podenco Maneto. Order below is Lugo, Eyes, Tita, Paula, Risi and Toby – all young dogs with a long life ahead of them.

    To donate, details here. To apply to adopt a dog, contact Pilar. Preferably associations or people who have already adopted from an association.

  • Beautiful Amelia – a x podenco/galgo waiting for her forever

    Bev Amelia x pod 250 1 1 2013This is Amelia, one of the dogs that went to Bev Farmer in Murcia, from Sandra Baas at Villa del Rio, Cordoba.

    Amelia is a Podenco/Glago cross, highly prized by the hunters. She has spent over a year in a shelter. I have no idea why she has not been adopted yet, as she is one of the sweetest loving obedient dogs I have ever encountered.

  • Podenco stray in Solano, Valencia – urgently needed to get him off the streets

    Urgent: Sweet William needs a foster or forever home. Can you help???
    Call Diane 664 585 275

    This stunning boy (see pix below)is a malnourished stray in Solano. Between 1 and 2 years old. We are desperate to get him a foster home to give us the time to find him a forever home. Believed to have been dumped when his owners moved away. He will be vaccinated and neutered soon.

    This is an amazing looking dog, he is very friendly and obviously used to being a pet. Still very skinny, he is doing well and the vet says he will make a full recovery. He adores people and is great with other dogs. He is very gentle and sweet and just wants someone of his very own to love.

  • Valencia killing station – Please give these podencos the Gift of Life for Christmas

    Valencia perrera podencos 250 12 2012Podencos in Valencia killing station, please is there an association which can save them?

    Two podencos – the little podenca puppy (the taller brown) is still inside but no one asks for her. She is loving and very curious, super funny with hazel eyes, if you look you see the pain that she feels.

    The petite podenquita tan, is female, six years old, the owner does not want it, too old to hunt. She is a bit timid, but she’s a lovely dog, loving and kind. Hopefully someone will notice her.

    (Pic below) The Galgo has left but the smooth Ibizan is still there. She is young, super affectionate, gentle and playful, about 8 months old.

She has ben seen by a vet, has a problem on one of her front legs, and a problem in her mouth, which prevented her eating. She has been blood tested and is negative for diseases, but she is currently being kept in a garage and needs a foster home where she can recover for adoption.

  • Aanifeira in Portugal – saving a blind podenco

    Aanifeira gaia- 200 7 10 2012We sometimes question the wisdom of spending valuable and scarce resources on saving very sick or injured animals but, given the choice, I’m sure we would all make the effort. How many lovely stories have we read about hounds saved – Esperanza, Alphonso, Ulysees, and now Miel. Here is a wonderful story about a blind podenco in Portugal, rescued sick, starving, injured and blind from a major road. Aanifeira gave her a chance – here’s her story.

  • Podenco Puppy in Seville urgently needs his forever family

    GIORGINO 1 248 7 2012Yet another little podenco puppy rescued from the streets of Seville. He urgently needs a foster or adoption home. Here’s his story.

    GIORGINO. PUPPY HOUND 2 MONTHS. HE WAS BORN ON THE STREET IN A SEVILLE VILLAGE

    This puppy appeared in the streets of my town completely covered with parasites, and malnourished, with a tremendous thirst. We took and gave him a drink immediately, he was exhausted. When he recovered, he ate a little, and shortly thereafter we bathed him with insecticide so that the ticks and fleas were killed. We also feared he had massive infestations, so we wormed him and worms of all kinds were evacuated.

    He was suffering from malnutrition, but now he has already been two weeks with me and is recovered, although you can still see his ribs. He is super good and very healthy but I have no where to have more dogs. This case is very urgent. He needs to be in a home, as if he had remained on the street, he would already be dead in the heat of Seville.
