  • Valencia, Spain – 110 podencos living in worse than hell!

    No photo description available.

    4 November 2026 – From Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends.

    110 dogs rescued in the Valencia region — mostly Podencos.
    In the last 15 years, I have taken Podencos from some terrible situations, but this rescue has to be one of the worst I have seen.
    110 dogs, mostly Podencos, exposed to the full sun with no shelter, no access to water, tied with short chains, held in cages or crates and kept in overcrowded conditions. Suffering from severe malnutrition and showing various signs of abuse.

  • Podenco Friends – about the Podenco

    Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends writes
    Did you know Podencos come in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and coat types?  In the early days I didn’t. The first podenquito I rescued she was so little I thought she was a puppy ..😊but a welcome surprise and Bella was a real joy to be with ..
    From the petite and delicate to the tall and athletic, this ancient breed is incredibly diverse — yet they all share the same intelligent eyes, expressive ears, and that unmistakable Podenco spirit.
    Despite their physical differences, Podencos are known for their intelligence , loyalty, and gentle nature.
    Whether curled up on the sofa or out exploring the world, they each bring a unique kind of magic.
    And because of their variety, they can adapt beautifully to many different types of homes and lifestyles.

  • 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
