  • Valencia perrera – female podencos on death row

    Valencia femalelessthan1year 250 whiteandredapril2013I’m now back home at my main computer and can post the photos of the 8 podencos currently in the perrera at Valencia. This little lady is not yet a year old! All females, the only male was saved a couple of weeks ago and also a white female. The black one is very unusual but sadly on CESE which is fast track to killing – on the instructions of the owner! All are very young, a couple are under a year old! Details of costs needed to save them, and also to pay kennel fees.
    Contact Dominique for fostering or adopting in Spain adoptadelaperrera@gmail.com
    For pension or adopting through an association contact Anke bracobuddha@hotmail.com

    Many of you helped contribute towards saving some other podencos which are now all in kennels. Funds are needed to pay for the kennels and pet passports. Contact Dominique and Anke if you want to contribute.

  • Urgent – 3 pod pups need foster homes and podenca Blanca needs a very special forever home

    Roz Lewis Blanca 4 2013Urgent appeal from Rosemary, who lives in Valencia region and rescued Podenca Ana a couple of years ago.

    ‘I rescued a beautiful white Podenco and have named her Blanca. I had been feeding her for a long time, then she got sick and I managed to catch her. She was very sick, she had very bad anemia, the vet originally said she was 3-4 years old, so I went of and found her a fantastic home to go to and the lady waited and waited for her to get better.

    Last week the head vet told me that although Blanca was much better she could never be vaccinated as her immune system is just not working well and that she thinks she is nearer nine years old. Blanca also needs to be on steroids now for the rest of her life.

    This meant her home fell through and now I am looking to find somewhere for her to spend the rest of her days. I cannot begin to describe how loving this girl is and how easy she is to look after.

  • Albalat Animal, Ribera, Valencia – injured podenco – please help

    Albalat Animals pod 250 3 2013This podenco has been named Leo by Albalat Animal Ribera in Valencia province. It took them a month to catch him. As you can see, he has a bad wound to his near hind leg. He is not chipped. He has been examined by a vet who will do tests for a diagnosis as to what work can be done to save his leg, rather than amputate. Albalat Animal are asking for a foster home for him as he needs a lot of attention, care and rest and is on 12-hourly medication.

    Albalat Animal have no shelter, so they desperately need somewhere for this boy to go, and financial help to cover veterinary expenses. So far they have paid out €109.12 and that is just the beginning. Tomorrow we return to do x-rays, in principle 2 to 35.32 euros each. Contact email and Paypal a/c albalatanimal@gmail.com

    It seems to be a reccurring theme for Little Pod Association, this is the second family rescued by them recently and both have since had large litters of puppies. Yet again more Podencos in a Perrera, the clock ticking down before they would be euthanaized.

    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.
