Gabriella shares the story of how she came to adopt Podenca Ivy.
‘I here summarise my love story with Ivy…..
In all my life (I am 57) I have never had a dog. I always preferred cats (at present 3 fantastic cats, 1 Burmese and 2 Burmillas live with me in my apartment…). However, last year, I casually discovered the GACI, an Italian association for the recovery of greyhounds (from Ireland), galgos and podencos (from Spain). In this way I have heard about the destiny of these hunting and running heroes, the way they are fully exploited and, if they are very lucky, abandoned.
