4 November 2026 – From Bev Farmer of Podenco Friends.
ARAY FOR RESPONSIBLE ADOPTION
ARAY is a very sociable little dog with dogs and shy with people, but little by little he will improve
He is suitable for cats
He is young, almost one year old, medium-sized, and weighs about 15 kilos.
ARAY is very friendly, fun, and loves to play with other dogs
He is learning to walk on a leash
Can you help us find a family for him?
We are looking for a family that lives outside urban areas, he is still afraid of car noises and crowds of people.
We are looking for a family that already has a dog at home, he needs a dog to copy.
ARAY is available for adoption, vaccinated, tested, sterilized, and with his chip
REJECT HUNTERS
If you want to meet him, leave a WhatsApp on the phone 679 24 10 95 (no audios, nor calls)
“Save a Podenco in Gran Canaria” is an animal shelter run by volunteers. Since 2017, we have been dedicated to the rescue, protection, and raising awareness about Podencos. Because they are used for hunting, Podencos are excluded from current animal protection laws, which makes it very difficult to help them.
We rescue them, find them foster homes, and prepare them to be happy; to have a family that lasts them a lifetime. (more…)
Eleven years of loyalty… and now all Princesa wants is a warm bed and someone to love her.
This is Princesa, an 11-year-old Podenca who is searching for a loving retirement home. She is currently in the Valencia region of Spain.
At a time in her life when she deserved extra love and care, Princesa was signed over to Friends of Aprop after developing a health condition that is easily managed. Sadly, because she was no longer considered “useful,” her owner chose not to stand by her through her golden years, leaving the shelter to give her the care she deserves. (more…)
How can this little Podenco puppy be ignored, no one has asked for him. A shelter is no place for a puppy. He’s 5 kilos, aged 8 months, is very loving. He is in Huelva (Andalucia), but can travel in Spain.

22 Podencos seized in Moaña in a joint operation of the #Seprona Prote Animais Morrazo and the Asociación de rescate animal Cadeliños
Locked up, caged, squeezed, with mange, sick, some chained, dead puppies….
The owner of the animals had them for hunting and sale, note in the Protectorate that he took in the 22 animals, 13 with a chip and 9 without identification, in the district shelter they have in Broullón.
And now what? …. (more…)
This is my definitive guide to the plight of the podenco, giving you all the information about the different types of podenco, their history, diseases and a lot more. All sale proceeds are donated to appeals for help for podencos with rescue associations and shelter.
These 2 small podencos are with Refugio Kimba in Cadiz, hoping for forever homes.
Contact Refugio Kimba to find more about them if you have room in your home and heart for one.
Refugio Kimba is one of the oldest established animal rescue associations in Spain. This is their message on Dia di Galgo.

2025 is slowly closing its doors and making room for a new chapter: 2026.
The past year was one of ups and downs. We faced unexpected setbacks and intense emotions, but also countless beautiful moments, shared with the special dogs who crossed our path. It was a hectic year that flew by, yet one we look back on with warm and grateful hearts.
We think back to all the D-days: those unforgettable moments when our beloved dogs packed their bags to meet their new families. No fewer than 177 dogs found their happiness this year. A result we could only dream of, and one that was made possible thanks to our amazing partners: Associazione ZAC Odv , Un Levriero per la Vita, Project Galgo, Vegrennen EV, Simona Norkute (Lithuania), Helping Animals Almanzora, Friends of Mazarrón Animals, Stichting Wereldhonden, and of course you—our loyal supporters. By sharing their stories so widely, you helped give each of them a new future. (more…)
