To spend some time with Bev and Warren and all their foster podencos in Murcia – well, a few are permanent residents – was a fabulous experience. I offered to help with the dogs but they were organised, they had their routine, so I did as I was told! Walking on the campo with Bev and the young hounds, watching her training them on recall was fabulous.

Almeria building site – rescue of two abandoned podencos
These two podencos were abandoned on a building site in Almeria. Appeals went round and Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends said she would have room – as 4 dogs were leaving to go to their forever homes. But Almeria is a long drive from Alicante so she arranged with the young rescuer to meet up part way.
Bev says. ‘Early start tomorrow after making sure our four are safely on their way on the transport taking them to their forever homes. Then we will be driving down to Almeria to get these 2 Podencos left abandoned in a construction site.’
Bev and Warren got the two podencos safely back to home base. Here’s what Bev writes about their rescuer.

Izzy Wizzy Isabella – Little podenca looking for her forever family
Here is Isabella, living at home with Bev Farmer and Warren. Bev says, ‘she wasn’t coping staying in the kennels. She is much brighter and content and we call her Iizzy Wizzy now she is so full of life and fun!
Isabella is one of our older girls at 6/7 years old. She has a large tattoo in her ear, an older form of identification than a microchip, showing that she belonged to a hunter with whom she spent her early years, and was then a long time in a shelter.
