    Peter Podenco head 190 08 2011 Here’s another stunning Podenco – named Peter. He’s currently in foster with Freda and Barry Young, who have to return to the UK in September for several months. They desperately want to find a forever home for him, as, if you read his story, going back to the refuge is the last place he needs to go.

    ‘He is a small podenco weighing about 12Kg. He is very timid but once he has relaxed he is full of fun and very affectionate. He is about 10 – 12 months old and is castrated and vaccinated.

    He was thrown over the fence in February at the CAS refuge where we work and when we let the other dogs out for their exercise, about 40 dogs surrounded him.
