  • Malaga – Older is Gold – Podenco Andaluz waiting forever

    Podenco Annie 250 10 11 2015This is an appeal for forever homes for a couple of deserving podencos who have been waiting far too long for their families. They are both in Malaga, Spain, in the Old for Gold group on facebook. Please give them a chance. Anne explains

    ANNIE
    Annie was brought to us by the Guardia Civil. She was very emaciated and the soles of her feet were completely worn. Her feet really hurt her a lot. She had been reserved very soon after her arrival by someone who wanted to adopt her but then she turned out to be leishmaniasis positive and the people did not want her any more.

    Fortunately Annie does not have any symptoms. Annie is already an older lady who we
    think was born in 2004.It is time for her to find some real happiness after living a very rough life.

  • Desperate help needed for a podenco

    Kate pod 2a 170A friend of mine has just rescued a podenco in terrible condition…two boys helped her catch him. She is in an area with a lot of hunters and gitanos. She suffers from ill health and has not the means to pay for the vet treatment he needs. So we desperately need an association to take him on. She is in southern Spain. Here’s what she says about him.

    1/12/2014 – ‘Walking through the square I saw a very, very thin podenco with one front leg held up and dangling, searching under and around the bins. I asked two little boys to watch him, rushed into the shop which luckily is on the square, grabbed a packet of frankfurters for 2€ and rushed out again. After he’d eaten several, he hopped off, but we followed him and one of the little boys (Gitanos – lots here and not crueller to animals than anyone else) managed to go up to him and gently stroke his head and hold him, while I tied my scarf round his neck.

  • Molly, Foxy Lady, Dave and Tilly – Podenco pals in the UK

    Dawn Richardson 4 pods 250 6 2014Another delightful rehoming story, this time from Dawn Richardson, about her 4 podencos. She regularly takes them to dog shows where they are winning plenty of rosettes.

    ‘I came across Molly our 1st Podenco cross in January 2013 by accident. A friend had invited me to a facebook site called Costa Blanca Dog Homing as she knew we were looking for a dog after losing ours 7 years earlier. I spotted Molly on the site when I saw her photo from Little Pods. Lots of emails later and we reserved Molly pending a home check. The nice lady arrived and gave me lots of info regarding Pods as I never knew or heard about them before. Molly arrived with us in May 2013, and tiny, nervous little girl, but it was love at first sight. Molly soon became more happy & confident but seemed a little lonely.
