Urgent appeal from Mercedes in Seville.
‘Hello. I need urgent help! I found this puppy podenco at the door of my work and it was terrified. I work in a place where there is a very dangerous road to the side, and I knew that leaving it there, it was only a matter of time before it would be injured. So, just in case the same day, I tied it next to my car. The poor dog was that be there for eight hours until I got out of work and took it home.
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.
This little podenca puppy is about 7 months old and has been picked up off the streets in Seville. The young man who rescued her cannot keep her longer than a week, so she urgently needs a foster home before the end of the year, and adoption. She’s been named Imagen. Any associations able to take her? Contact amormascotas@live.com

This is the lovely Luna; she’s with Macu in Seville. She’s about 2 years old, medium sized Podenca Andaluz, was rescued a year ago with a rope round her neck, was fearful of everything. She’s now ready for adoption; wormed, vaccinated and sterilized; she’s fine with cats, other dogs and people. She is loving and obedient and just wants someone to love her. Macu works tirelessly saving galgos and podencos from a gypsy camp. In order to carry on, she needs her rescued dogs to be adopted. If you are interested, please contact Macu, or Carmina – who speaks English.
This is an urgent appeal to the good people, for people who are characterized by being the voice of these poor animals, the forgotten, the abused… This hound has suffered in her life and is now struggling to bring up 8 puppies. She was in a hovel, coping with the cold and heavy rains which have plagued Algeciras. She was found by a friend of Prodeanse who are going to take her into their care, to a kennels where Esperanza – for that is what she has been named – can care for her puppies, warm and dry.
If you can help, please contact Prodeanse (they speak English) for donations for food and vet fees for Esperanza and her babies. Every little will be greatly appreciated. Paypal this address and email adopcionesprodeanse@gmail.com
Immaculada – also known as Inma and Macu – of Seville does incredible work rescuing animals off the street and from a settlement of galgueros nearby. She deals with the vet, paying kennel fees, appeals to associations to help foster and rehome these hounds. Many of them I have featured on PP – including big hairy Podenco Campanero Chaplin, now happily rehomed in the UK with the help of SOS Animals. She’s currently got 9 podencos and 1 galgo, to name just 10!
Macu has sent this appeal. ‘It is very bad here, I have many animals that depend on me and to make matters worse I have no computer, I thought it was the hotmail account, and changed it to g.mail and even so, it is the computer…so I’m at my brother’s house using his computer, but I cannot connect and answer as fast as before.
Here I send you a link of a blog, so you can see all the animals that I have in my charge.
Two young podencos desperately needing foster and forever homes. The young male Ibicenco is no good at hunting, so the hunter is going to kill him along with a couple of Breton Spaniels who he says also are no good as hunters. Please, can anyone take him, he’s only 2 years old. He looks thin and frightened. He’s in Entity, a village in Seville. Contact

And this white beauty, Nana, is only 3 months old, found in the middle of a road in Poblet, Valencia. She is so good, quiet, submissive but cheerful. Seems good with cats, loves other dogs and people. The appeal for a forever home for little Nana, as the foster home is only temporary and she will have to go to a shelter, which is no good for a puppy. Contact m12casom@uco.es jose@uco.e
