  • Little Pod Association – working in Murcia for the podencos

    LPA Angela logo 300Some years ago I received a photo of a little podenca puppy held by the scruff of the neck, feet off the ground, in a perrera for killing! I circulated the photo and details to contacts and ‘angela’ as she became known, was rescued and went into foster with Angela Stacey. Sadly Angela pod developed the killer disease parvo virus and died but she touched the hearts of so many people that Angela and her daughter Marie formed Little Pod Association.

    They have been doing amazing work rescuing and fostering and organising adoptions for dozens of podencos especially in the Murcia area. On this page you can see some of the fabulous podencos in their care, waiting for forever homes. Please contact them as they rely on donations to carry on their work. And please consider LPA if you have room for a podenco in your heart and home.
