  • Seville – podencos for hire for hunting!

    I’m still stuck in the UK because of snow, and struggling to post. Here’s a story I received earlier this week, emailed on to associations I hope can help, and now post you the story. Apologies though, as I’m using a computer which won’t allow me to post pix.

    ‘On January 6, 2013 I drove with my husband and adopted dog (from a perrera near Malaga, ‘El Paraiso’) from Tarifa to Seville, and on to Cordoba.

    We stopped at a rural restaurant for coffee where I became aware of a whole lot of dogs crying somewhere in the vicinity.

  • Starving to death in a coral in Cordoba!

    Starving dogs Cordoba 4 11 02 2011 250 There are no regulations in Spain to which refuges and shelters have to adhere.  Some are a living hell for dogs and cats which have already suffered from maltreatment and abuse.  This is a 'coral' in Cordoba where dogs including podencos are starving to death through lack of food and water.  When dogs get to this stage, they will even attack and eat each other.  There is evidence of this here.  El Arca de Noe Cordoba complained about the situation, and the authorities removed the dogs to the local pound.  Death awaits them, from lethal injection if they haven't already succumbed to infection and illness before them.

  • Zaragoza killing station – podencos desperately needing rescue

    Podenca Zaragoza 1 08 2011 250 The hunting season is now over and hunters are getting rid of their '4-footed tools'!
    These are the Perricos to be slaughtered in a few days at the Zaragoza perrera. This is the appeal I received

    'We are only two volunteers who have many dogs in kennels which we pay the fees and we can't take any more dogs.  We have all this responsibility on our shoulders and we desperately need adopters for the dogs in our care, and more so we need special people who can rescue these young podencos before they are sacrificed in a few days.
