  • Podenco Pepe – from streets of Valencia to the UK – appealing for a home

    Ciara Pepe sleeping 250This is the heart-wrenching appeal I received this morning.

    My name is Ciara. I am writing to enquire about the possibility of rehoming my Podenco, Pepe, through your website.

    I carried out an internship in Valencia last year, and, long story short, returned to Scotland six months later having rescued a Podenco puppy from the streets, nursed him back to health and brought him home with me. Since then, we have been blissfully happy together, and he’s like my baby. But the bad news is that my circumstances have recently changed. I’m about to graduate from university and have been offered a job in Belfast, which is full-time, and in that instance I will be unable to continue looking after him. It’s not a situation in which to keep a young podenco.

    THE FACTS:

  • Valencia podencos – discarded like trash in the perrera

    It’s obvious that the hunting season in Spain is now drawing to a close. Perreras overflowing with hunting dogs, podencos, galgos, pointers…as well as thousands of other beautiful dogs – young ones, old ones – confused as to why they have been dumped. Podencos are used in very large number for hunting particularly in Valencia and the high kill perrera is overflowing. Below are some of the poor souls there, including 2 taken by the hunter himself, so can be killed any day, and a couple born in 2005 obviously used for breeding.

  • Montserrat, Valencia – 8 months old with a neck wound

    Monserrat podenquita sun 190ISIS is a podenquita that appeared abandoned in Montserrat. She had a wound on the neck as if she had been chained up all the time. She is about 8 months, honey-colored eyes, is very sweet and affectionate and gets along well with other dogs. The wound has healed with treatment each day and now she needs a family who will offer her a forever home. At such a young age, she has many years ahead of her; young enough to train, maybe even make an agility dog. She is in Valencia.

    She will have a contract, commitment of sterilization and follow-up

  • Valencia perrera – 2 podenco puppies – please help

    Valencia 2 bros 6 months old 250 5  2013Valencia pound. On death row. Two brothers, about six months old, precious and super friendly. They have honey-coloured eyes. One is a bit more suspicious than the other, are very funny because if you tell them things, the one on the right will wags its tail and get belly up and give kisses, because he wants to come, but as his brother is more cautious (I’m sure on the street he has survived thanks to him) he tells his brother not to come, and is constantly taking care of both.

    Hopefully someone can help the two together because they are very close. One without the other could not survive on the street. They are identical twins. Will be tall, because they are still puppies, appear to be Ibizans.
