  • Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert – saving the podencos in Sevillia

    FBM Bashira 1 250 1 2016Here are stories from Levriers sans Frontieres about 2 podencos, now safe with Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert in Seville, and who will eventually come to France for forever homes.

    Here’s the story of the first one, Bashira. After she was found at the roadside, throughout the journey to the shelter, she has not moved, not cried. she is so courageous and yet what she must suffer! She was rushed to the vet for urgent operation. Upon her arrival she was supported by Lillian, the veterinarian at the FBM, who took xrays. The legs are fractured, put in splints whilst waiting for an operation by the orthopedist. Under anaesthetic, her injuries have been disinfected and she was given antibiotic. This tiny podenca is barely a year old, what a terrible start to its life.

  • Two blind podencos in Seville – please donate to their operations

    Macu Atila-4 250I recently reported about two podencos in Seville which Macu had rescued from Palmete, a settlement of galgueros and gitanos from where she saves many hounds. Both the podencos had eye problems. The younger one has been named Atila, just two years old, in good health apart from not being able to see. His problem is that there are waterfalls and tumours in each eye, and if enough money can be raised, the opthamologist can restore Atila’s sight 100%. At the moment, the poor dog spends a lot of time bumping into things or just not moving about atall. The amount needed – 1,600 euros to include the operation and follow-up tests. If Atila does not have the operation, he will be blind for life.

  • Podenco Andaluz – Luna and Billy – both young and needing forever homes

    Macu Luna 9 2012 250This is Podenca Luna, 7 months old, rescued by Macu. She is now in a foster home preparing for a forever home. She’s a medium size Podenca Andaluz and is young enough to train in obedience and agility, if you would like a dog with energy and loyalty. If you would like to offer Luna a forever home, contact Macu. Or Marisa for English speakers.

    And don’t forget adorable Billy – I would so love to have him in my canine family, but 5 dogs is more than enough expense! He’s a small Podenco Andaluz, but these little guys have huge personalities and are a lot of fun to own.

    Both in Seville. macu197820102@hotmail.com tele 0034 ttr 809 169
