Help Blind Podenca Katy recover her sight – an appeal from Valencia
This is podenca Katy; she is blind; she is lucky to be in the safe and caring hands of Silvia of Galgos Connection Spain, and her marvellous vet. This is what Silvia says about Katy.
‘This is Katy, she is a special girl with a huge problem in the eyes, she needs an operation because her eyes are turned, the iris is inside; if she has this operation, there is every possibility that she will recover her sight. As always, please help towards her vet fees, we have many dogs in the pension needing our help. If someone can help please do it, Katy deserves to see the nice part of life.

Red and Buzz – two happy endings for abandoned podencos
Red is one of the podencos featured on my FB page Help the Podencos. He has been in the care of Silvia of Galgo Connection Spain since his rescue – this is the picture from when he was rescued, see the photos of him now in his forever home at the end of this post, isn’t he just soooo handsome!
And this is an amazing story about saving a miniature Podenco Andaluz in Miami. His forever Mom tells the story.
‘Miami, Florida USA; a Mecca of unwanted pets. Miami Dade animal services intakes up to 200 pets per day, and with lines out the door at opening, people are dumping their pets and turning in strays…it can only lead to high euthanasia rate- about 150 per day.

Podenca Laila, dumped at killing station, carrying a huge tumour
This is Laila, an eleven year old podenca. She is now in the care of Silvia of Galgo Connection Spain. Here is what she says.
‘As you can see, Laila has a big tumour and has bred a lot of puppies. Her owner didn’t want to help the old girl and took her to the killing station. She was there about a month. I was waiting for someone to help her but finally, I thought, I have to do something and the best is to operate on her. So she is now booked in to the vet to have the tumour removed.
